Re: 1988 Gmc crew cab build
I think that's the Evil Twin or American Force adaptors. Which cost like $1300.

Re: 1988 Gmc crew cab build
Interior looks good! Are those new door panels or refinished ? How's that steering wheel? I was looking at that 1 or the darker stain 1.

Re: 1988 Gmc crew cab build
The rear seat belts that are attached to the floor did they come out of the Avalanche as well or did you get them from somewhere else? I just put Tahoe seats in my crew cab and the original seat belt is too wide for the Tahoe receiving end and I see yours are skinny. Thanks

Re: 1988 Gmc crew cab build
Looks just like one off a 5.3. Best bet would be to get on a Cummins site and ask.

Re: 1988 Gmc crew cab build
Your interior looks amazing! I am getting closer to starting on the interior on my 86 crew cab project, I have 98 cloth seats from a crew cab I was gong to use but am a little concerned about the rear leg room with a crew cab rear seat. Was thinking about using an extended cab rear seat instead as I believe the bottom isnt as wide. My 87 suburban has adequate leg room and I know its got a few more inches than the stock crew cab had. Do you like how much leg room you have on the rear seat? Also does the rear seat fold down flat?

Re: 1988 Gmc crew cab build
with people sitting in the back you have to move the front seats up , the exsended cab seats would have worked better and easer to put in
