I wonder if one could install the whole setup a tad higher. I know it's too late for you, and yours look awesome anyway, but I'm just thinking out loud... That's what you get for being a pioneer!!!

FF - It will be close for the one piece of lower trim, but if you look at the truck setup it's not perfectly lined up with the bottom of the tail light trim. I think I can place the lower trim right above the hinges and make it work. The problem you will run into with raising everything up, will be matching the body lines up (side) and the upper side trim (if you use the truck trim and paint). I lined up both lower body lines (truck/burb) which made the upper side truck trim hit the tail lights in the right place. I think that if you plan on using the lower tailgate trim, that since you are doing a one piece lift gate, you could lengthen the lip of the lift gate to get it lower to help with alignment. This is probably more confusing than help. I guess I should have asked you what your overall idea is,... Suburban paint scheme with truck tail lights or truck paint scheme and truck tail lights. I attached some picture of the Burb with some of the trim on and of some trucks for reference. As for being a Pioneer, thanks!, too bad my metal working skills don't match my ability to dream some of this stuff up. Good thing they make grinders and bondo, ![]()

As a point of note also - I would probably paint in the rear silver section as well...I think it would look better than cutting the trim to fill out over the door seam.

All I can say is....wow. That is looking really good. And like you said, the general public won't know the difference.

Good news on your daughter! I've got twins about to start drivers ed this Summer, that should be fun. As for the burb, you and Mike amaze me, the ingenious ideas you guys have come up with are really impressive. Keep up the good work and the good posts. Greg.

As for the Burb, if we can have it painted by the end of July, I think I can get it put back together. I only have a few more big parts to buy, a/c, EFI harness, and a bunch of smaller misc stuff.... I'll keep you posted.

Well before all the excitment yesterday evening, I actually got a little bit done on the Suburban. I had planned on installing a set of bear claw latches in the tailgate. Then the other day I was helping my buddy work on a late model Chevy truck tailgate and decided I liked the way the latches on it looked better than the bearclaw ones. Here's some pictures of the install of the drivers sided. As soon as I finish the passenger side, then the body's coming off the frame and going on a rotissierre, ![]()

Nice, but curious why? I thought about it for the one-piece but the stock latches work just fine. If it's not broke... I'm sure you have a good reason

It will definitely look more factory than the bearclaw's.
