Thumbs up Unity spotlight....my luck

I wanted to try and get my Unity spot light installed today but as usual it didn't happen. When I bought this light the seller said it was for a 67-72 C 10...NOT!

I started looking at it close today and took it a part to drill the bracket hole. It's not even close. So I called Unity and got the right bracket # for it its a 202-L for the drivers side according to Unity customer service . I guess I'll be doing this next weekend also. I found one on E bay.
Unity sent me the instruction sheets along with the Unity sent the instructions to my e mail also.

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.

Me to. I bought the light about year ago and never have messed with it until today as far mounting it. I get it mounted next weekend hopefully.
I've been reading some of the older post on them here to. I hope I get it all done.

Wow Andy, that is one sweet truck! When I get my 67 GMC road worthy we should meet up! I tried to buy a C30 one like yours several years ago, but the seller reneged on me.

I got the light in today and tested. It works fine. I ran out of day light so I'll do the final wiring next weekend. The drilling of the hole is a *****!

Re: Unity spotlight....my luck

Cool deal! That light belongs on that truck. I have one for my '72 I've had at least 10 years. I guess I'm waiting till I restore it. Or maybe I just keep forgetting about it. Just not a priority. I bought mine from a member who pulled it off a '70 that I saw on the truck. So I know it worked and fit.
