Oh you just like things that grab your butt!

I would like to have one of his steering wheels, but I found out yesterday why it doesn't have a horn button.

jgh64pkup · 07-02-2009, 11:01 AM

i like the seats they look good in there
i also like the birdhouse center console

scotts62 · 07-02-2009, 10:26 PM

Actually that's the 2 speaker boxes I had built to fit under the bench seat. I stood them on their side and set them between the seats for now. I'll build a center console and then mount the speakers in the front of the console!

70 Suburban · 07-06-2009, 10:22 PM

well is that another parts truck or you atleast have the parts to fix it right

scotts62 · 07-06-2009, 10:26 PM

Well i actually already have a parts truck for the ex cab im putting together, i think ill have enough laying around to patch 2 trucks together.

Cool

joe231 · 07-06-2009, 11:27 PM

Ouch!!!

*highperf4x4* · 07-07-2009, 01:10 AM

DUDE THAT SUCKS!

I guess it's good that you didn't have to call it in to your insurance company but what a drag man!!!!!

I don't know how bad the damage is but would you be better off putting the truck you just bought back together?

See, dude, this is why I don't like to lower em!!! Raise them sum*****es up and just go over the top!!!!!!

yeah but then it would have bent the frame.. these trucks are known for easily bent frames...
the frame is screwed on parts truck or i would. All i need to switch out is the core support fenders and hood. Wonder if i can find some 99-00 escillade parts...

JohnC · 07-07-2009, 12:44 PM

That sucks man, glad your ok.

I like the idea of the Escalade front end though! Hmmmmm

scotts62 · 07-07-2009, 05:44 PM

Yeah im really tossing that up, i really like the looks of them. Anyone know a good place to get parts for that? I looked on ebay lastnight but it seems to be full of the kind of idiots that have a price of say, $60 and the shipping charge of $85 on just a headlight..

I was a reporting fool lastnight

JohnC · 07-07-2009, 06:38 PM

I'll talk to a friend of mine that rebuilds wrecked cars and stuff, and see where he gets some of his stuff. I know certi-fit has some stuff, but with doing the whole front end it may get kind of pricey. I'll let ya know.

*highperf4x4* · 07-07-2009, 07:53 PM

Johnathon knows EVERYBODY!

jgh64pkup · 07-07-2009, 08:52 PM

no i dont
oh sorry you were talking about JohnC
J/K

joe231 · 07-07-2009, 09:03 PM

watch pull-a-part they get the 88-98's from time to time

the escalade front end parts are spendy....you might check those jack-asses south of 89th on shields...

oh have you seen the rover styled front ends for these? I think they are pretty slick...i'll look for a link

http://www.stylintrucks.com/parts.as...tfamilyid=6439

over $400 but it comes complete with light and is bolt on

you could do chrome or paint to match your truck

JohnC · 07-08-2009, 08:34 AM

Those are pretty cool. I don't care much for the one that is on the truck, but the blacked one is cool. I think the one in the pic has too much reflection in the headlight. Would be different though.

The other day when I was at Pull-A-Part they didn't have many 88-98 trucks there that had anything good on them. I'm going to try and go up there first thing Saturday Morning, I'll look again and see if there is anything new.

Travis the thing is I know everybody, but they just don't seem to know me.

JohnC · 07-08-2009, 03:14 PM

OK I found the front end for you. For $4,719.99 you can have the front clip

Or for $6,294.99 you could do the whole truck.

I talked to my friend, and he said he would try certi-fit, or a place called New World International. I couldn't find a website for New World, but there is a place off Ann Arbor in OKC that I think he is talking about. They must be like Certi-Fit. He didn't know anywhere else besides like Stylin' Trucks that had kits. So I guess the hunt is on, well unless you just want to go with the kits I mentioned above.

JohnC · 07-09-2009, 04:56 PM

Yeah I feel the same way. They also have a kit that I have seen somewhere to make it like a 47-54 style truck. It looks just about as bad!

70 Suburban · 07-08-2009, 03:41 PM

Thats sorta fit

jgh64pkup · 07-08-2009, 03:43 PM
