    1981-82 Metal Lower Tailgate Mldg

    Yes. But that design was only used early on. 1981-82 models. I bet your truck's tailgate had been swapped at some point in life with an early model....

    Wheel Opening Moldings

    Actually, the 1989-91 Blazer, Jimmy, Suburban, and crewcab trucks had a solid aluminum wheel well opening molding without a ridge in the middle. :waytogo:

    What is this gauge?

    At the time these trucks were new, that was a GM over the counter accessory. An outside thermometer

    Howdy from North Texas

    "Howdy" from Wichita Falls, TX. Must be rough to be a dealership owners son and just say, "I want a blue truck. Tell me when it's here." LoL!!! James Woods. Huge area dealer, but I have somehow never bought from them???

    door lock cylinder not working on passenger side

    Sounds like a bent or binding metal rod in the locking system?? Like in the old days people "slim jimmed" their trucks when the keys were locked inside. Maybe someone hung the tool up on a lock rod and bent it???

    I like the cost, quality, and sound of Summit Racing aluminized Turbo mufflers.

    Where does this go???

    Left and right end speaker plugs have an angled connector though. I can't tell in your photo if that hardshell connector is straight or bent at an angle.

    Help with redoing my Front Grille 82 C10 and building a parts list.

    I recommend the correct style 1982 quad headlight bezels.... over those chromed 1985-88 in that photo. :boti:

    Side Marker Gasket

    OEM = Never a seal/gasket there.

    Any black two tone trucks out there?

    What color interior?? Maybe add the interior color to the top and bottom (over the white).

    Two bad new oil pressure sensors? Tell me I am wrong.

    There is a sender for "idiot lights" and a different sender for an actual OEM PSI reading gauge too.

    1981-82 Metal Lower Tailgate Mldg

    Oh, it was NOS GM in the early 1981-82 model. I do not know what warranted the change?? Maybe it depended on the assembly plant??

    Door Weatherstrip Install

    The use of this "auxiliary door seal" was discontinued after the 1982 model year too.

    Year ID - Headlight Bezel

    1981/82 never had that set-up. The parking lights were always built down in the front bumper. 1981 had a single headlamp bezel with a matching grill pattern under the headlamp. 1982 had that same bezel AND a quad headlamp option on the Silverado style V22 trim. The new bezel you now have is a...

    3M Tape on cab moldings

    You can get the factory style clips and use sheet metal screws to attach them to the back of your cab. Drill the holes for the corner moldings...

    1981-82 Metal Lower Tailgate Mldg

    That would be AWESOME "Prairie Drifter". It's odd this style of metal stamped lower tailgate molding came on the 1981-82 models. Those tailgates all had the small, square block "ESC" badge in 1981. Or that massive "Electronic Spark Control" 2-tone badge with those two big 1/4" pins going thru...

    Cardboard utility box upgrade.

    Looks like a assembly line worker rapidly, and single handedly, writing the number "23" to me. :console:
