kick panel vent pins and springs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**landarts** · 01-12-2019, 12:29 PM

I am trying to knock a few more items off of the punch list with the 72 Fixrupr build. I tore down the fresh air vents a few years ago and sand blasted, painted and replaced worn out foam inserts. I misplaced the pins and springs that help hold them in the kick panels. Is there any place out there that sells them? I have looked and just not able to find them. First image is what I am looking for. Second are mine ready to go back together.

Never mind I found a way to make it work with long screw, cut the head off and threading it up and down raise and lowers so you can remove or install. After the final assembly I will post a picture so if anyone else gets into need for the same.

Junkyards would be my suggestion but it sounds like you figured it out.

You may could use a couple of old ink pen springs and some small rods to.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
