Need some help - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**smokinn** · 02-01-2003, 04:11 PM

HI
I just bought another truck. I had to sell my last one 6 months ago. I bought a 1982 chevy short box 4x4. This truck is in great shape. I'm looking for some catalogs for parts on this truck. I need to replace the power window/locks motor. Any help will be great. Also It has the factory rims on it and i'm looking to put something else on. Any ideas? The truck has a 4" lift with 33" tires. Do they make a buillet grill for this year as well? If so where can i get one. I will try to post some pics ASAP

Thanks
Jason

They make billet grilles for all 73-87. I ordered mine from a local dealer but you can also order them online and have them shipped to your house. Mine is a 17-bar polished made by Stull.

I bought the same one as Chevy Chic, I bought it local for around $110.00. Real easy install, everything lined up perfectly, better then stock I must say.

EDIT:
Heres a few pictures of the Stull grille installed:

Damn Heater I just seen your fortune cookie for the first time, thats funny, it must have gotten messed up during translation

**swervin ervin** · 02-03-2003, 07:15 PM

I bought mine at Ultimate Truck and Van

Mine is the polished, #5002P.

Eddie,

Heather might get ticked at you for calling her Heater.

**smokinn** · 02-03-2003, 10:40 PM

Thanks for all the help.

Eddie,
How much cutting did you have to do? I'm not really looking forward to someting i have to cut and weld to make fit.

Jason

**swervin ervin** · 02-03-2003, 11:05 PM

I think Heather's, Eddie's and mine are all Stull polished billets. There is no cutting involved. It's a remove the old grille and install the new one. Pretty simple.

apstguy · 02-04-2003, 01:12 AM

I have a Trenz billet grille - it took me only about 15 minutes to install. No cutting required and the holes that weren't there uses self-tapping screws. All you need is a power screwdriver (power drill with screwdriver bit). Be careful when you install it, billet is softer than some metal.

NOTE: if you want an emblem, you need to fabricate your own brackets. Mine are made from solid blocks of PVC.

chevychic · 02-04-2003, 01:28 AM

Well since everyone is showing off their grilles, I can't pass up the opportunity to show off mine

As everyone else said, they're very easy to install and look so much better than the stock grilles IMO.

**smokinn** · 02-05-2003, 05:26 PM

Thanks for all the help. I bought a stull polished billet grill today. Now i just have to wait till it gets here. That will be along wait. Also my wife and I are going out shopping for a digital camera tonight. I have a few more things to do to the truck like a different rear bumber, exhust and wheels that will all be done by this weekend so i will be playing with my new digital camera this weekend and post some pics monday.

Jason

**swervin ervin** · 02-05-2003, 06:10 PM
