    Replacing headlights

    That's how I remember it on our '90 Burb....I know the headlight trim/bezel is a separate part because I've seen them separate from the grille.

    Will 1992-1994 seats fit K5s

    The 2 door OBS Tahoe/Blazer/Jimmy/Yukon, and the OBS extended cab trucks, should have a flipper or a slider, to make the passenger front seat move for access to the rear seat. So if the '89 seat track has this feature, and the '94 seat bolts up to that track, it should work.....

    Trailer Hitch - Factory Step Bumper

    Called "one size fits most".....all my OBS trucks came with hitches so I'm not sure how they go in. No room to tell, on the Burb.

    Trailer Hitch - Factory Step Bumper

    We had one of those bolt on receivers on our '81 Sierra C15, bolted to the factory step bumper. Dad used Grade 8 bolts, afaik we never had any issues with it.

    Hello..n00b here. Fun build

    Welcome to the forum, from Houston, Texas! I have the next generation of your truck (as it was originally)...'97 Chevy C3500, 350/4L80E/4.10 FF. My other OBS is a Burb, and since 1975 my family has had 3 GMC half ton long bed pickups and 5 square body Burbs. Once my brother got into school, the...

    Dash Differences?

    Probably some options package, so named because of the LA Olympics the year before?

    Should this new guy buy this '85?

    Our Burb was a '75, and the guy who built it, built one every year for several years. Maybe even back in the 3 door ones. So he probably built the "original" Escalade, but never got any credit for it. My Dad was going to put the Eldorado hood ornament on it (had the GMC square one the Sierra...

    Should this new guy buy this '85?

    Welcome from Houston, TX, I'd snap that up if "the price is right" LoL. Back in 1979-80 we had a Burb that had full Cadillac drivetrain. Wish we could a got it sorted out, but it was in bad shape. Still have the motor and transmission; they're going in a project truck I have.

    Spark Pluges

    We used AC in all our squares (3 GMC pickups and 5 Burbs, GMC and Chevy)+ all 3 of my OBS trucks. I think Dad put AC in every GM vehicle we had. I just replaced the original plugs in my crew cab a few months ago; it had AC iridiums in it so that's what I put in. They're more $$ but they last...

    Stepside wood opinions?

    IIRC the factory boards are routed with a groove on the edges where the straps/separators sit. This allows them to not stick up as much, so your loads(or feet) don't catch on them. If they stick up, it'll let you slide large loads in and out on them(like I do on the ribs in my crew cab's...

    Anyone know if the Smash Hit grill guard is stainless or chrome plated?

    Here's pictures I took 2 years ago, of a Smash Hit guard on a '54 GMC at Conroe swap meet. I would wager this one is not stainless steel....but it prolly is near as old as the truck.

    Anyone know if the Smash Hit grill guard is stainless or chrome plated?

    I'll have to check the one I have, when I can get to it, it's in the back of the truck, attached to the bumper and splash pan(along with many other parts).

    Anyone know if the Smash Hit grill guard is stainless or chrome plated?

    The Perry Company still exists near Waco, Texas. They no longer make pickup accessories, but specialize in tractor and heavy equipment accessories. You might give them a call or email and see if they have any specs on the truck parts/accessories they used to make. May be in the files somewhere...

    C10 Fall Revival 2023, Denton NC

My cousin has a '66 C10 longbed, and used to have a '64 C10 longbed that had belonged to one of his best friends. He didn't want to sell it, but he had...

    C10 Fall Revival 2023, Denton NC

    That looks just like our old '79 Burb, when we got it, except for the Rallyes. Ours had white steelies and dog dish caps. But otherwise exactly, same interior even, and the dark brown was starting to get that show through patina. We added some stick on sunshade/tint to our back glass though...
