When I ordered all the billet stuff for the interior I accidentally ordered 2 sets of front door trim pieces instead of 1 front set and 1 shorter rear set. I didn't want to go through the hassle of shipping them back to LMC and losing money on shipping etc, so I cut them to length, contoured them and used the leftover pieces aswell-

I ordered another set of '79 front end style clear sidemarkers from LMC and installed them on the rear of the rear fenders with the reflector on the bottom and red LED bulbs since these lights are supposed to be red. They are very bright and I will post night time pics later-

This is what the LMC water proof cover for a crew cab long bed fits like on a dually-

I had to mark an X on the front because it is so long and I also cut some slits in the bed area because it would turn into a pool after it rained.


About a month and a half ago I hit a BIG pothole at the front right and the wheel traveled so far it broke the stock A/C box into pieces, it even pushed the blower motor up causing the blower fan to break when it hit the firewall. I bought another stock A/C box and blower fan and modded it with a freind that works at a body shop. The blower motor was cut and raised up much as possible without the fan rubbing on anything and the A/C box was cut as much as possible on the area close to the tire and fiberglassed. It gained about another 2 inches of clearance-

Tailgate handle relocation kit and K5 Blazer tailgate band that I have alredy modded to fit on the truck tailgate so I can have a shaved handle with no metal work-

Polished trim for the stock grille that I had to make cut outs for the bowtie in order to work on my grille. And some later model square body 'burban mirrors. These mirrors were only made 1 or 2 years and there is not enough demand for them, nobody makes them. It took me a long time to find a decent pair.-

It also took me a long time to find this metal piece that fills in the gap in between the bumper and the bed, it came on K5 Blazers and some 'burbans. :

I've also done other small things that probably nobody notices except me like have the key holes shaved and add some "bling" under the hood.

Looking good man!
wide load c-30   +1y
Thanks guys. And no I don't have any plans to body drop it but it's notched and tubbed to layout in case I decide to bag it later. I would however like to run a vintage air setup so I can static drop the front another inch on bigger tires.

wide load...did you literally turn and flip the rearend? looking at your pics it looks like you did without a flip kit. Everything looks the same just upside down is this correct?
wide load c-30   +1y
LOL, hell no. I'm running a rebuilt '85 model C&C rear which is a FF 14 bolt. It does look upside down compared to the stock rear when looking at the diff. cover.... The Western Chassis flip kit does not work with this C&C, so a custom one was made.
