Does lmc (or?) make these frame pieces? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

May70 · 10-10-2019, 09:03 PM

Pulled my bed off today.

I need the cross members labeled 1 & 2 and also brackets 3 &4. Maybe I am missing it but ive been searching lmc for them and cant find it.

#1 is definitely toast

Maybe Im searching for the wrong words.

Thanks

I have a nice used rear crossmember for $100 shipped, i might have the other one too.

I have 1/2/3 on the bench and I think #4 on a parts truck out side . If you need them I can list them In the parts section .

Parts /cross members . If you need them let me know and I'll post them on the parts board .

Upon further inspection today... saw this close up. Is this all one piece? What are your suggestions to do about the rot between those layers? Need help

If you have a sand blaster, the first thing you should do is clean up as much of that frame as you can. That's the best way to know what you have left to work with.

From what I can see in your pictures I would be looking for a different frame.

The unfortunate thing is the front half is in great shape from what little ive seen because it was covered in oil....

I found a guy by me who might have a good 3/4T frame for 200. He said he would get back to me... Hopefully he still has it. But if not im trying to get a game plan to salvage what I have here.

If you don't find one close to you I have this one that's pretty clean .

may,
there was a Yellow 71 on the facebook market place this week in Hampton I believe for around 700 bones, might be good for a parts truck or just need some TLC

I would find a rolling frame,
I used to deal with a guy named Ron in western branch area, that had a back yard full of chevy parts and old Pontiac stuff too, he was a regular on craigslist . I have not seen him on in a while you might get lucky if you try looking on CL

Ended up finding a great frame for 200 bucks. Looks like real light surface rust and all the mounts, cross members are in good shape. No repairs that ive seen so far. Thanks everyone.
