Re: I bought a super nice wrecked 04 silverado regular cab short bed to drive.
i got the frame changed yesterday. it took me and one other guy 6 hours and 15 minutes to change the frame. with the cab off the engine comes off in one entire package. using a twin post lift is the only way to change a frame. drug it in with the fork lift and backed the truck outside 6 hours later. i am sending it to local body shop to get the right door repaired and the front cap painted and blend the paint on the doors. it started right up and ran fine.

Holy crap that was quick!
Mine was hit by a deer in the bedside and the bodyshop had it as long as you had this one

DANG! Hey 468BIGBLOCK what'ya doin? "Oh, nothing just bought this wrecked truck, swapped the frame and had it painted in a few days".
Looks slick. Do you know how your painter prepped the bumper cap? I'd like to do mine, and the mirrors/caps also.

Re: I bought a super nice wrecked 04 silverado regular cab short bed to drive.
those door handles came off a 2005 chevy tahoe. the mirrors are off a 2005 suburban that were painted from the factory they were black. the upper bumper pad is off a 2005 chevy silverado that was painted from the factory it was white. you can get a new upper bumper pad that is smooth and paintable from an aftermarket suppier like keystone automotive.

Re: I bought a super nice wrecked 04 silverado regular cab short bed to drive.
Ok guys I read this whole thread and just bought a 2000 swb Silverado and it has the rear disc brakes. What do I need to be concerned with and would it be best to just disable the emergency brakes on the rear? Thanks for any input.
PT

Re: I bought a super nice wrecked 04 silverado regular cab short bed to drive.
Thanks and the reason I asked is I heard a squeak,squeak,squeak sound today and went by my buddies shop and he put it on the lift and said it was going to need rear brakes before long so I am going to be doing a brake job soon. Anything that I need to be looking for?
Thanks PT
