    front fenders rusted out

    Mel, I checked out USbodysource and that might be the ticket! It is expensive ($1900) but at least it wouldn't rust anymore.

    front fenders rusted out

    Some useful information here. GE i appreciate the pictures! It sounds like the usual some have good luck with aftermarket and others do not. I still appreciate the input and experience. By the way to clarify I am talking about the 1994 truck not my 86. The 86 is no big deal just slap some more...

    front fenders rusted out

    Thanks for the input. I have heard from people I've talked too that the aftermarket fenders are of poor quality/fit. I just don't know if junk yard replacements in Ohio (winter road salt country) are going to be easy to find in shape good enough to justify a transplant. Has anybody actually...

    front fenders rusted out

    Has anyone replaced their front fenders with aftermarket (LMC truck, JC Whitney) and what are your opinions of the quality/fit of the aftermarket fenders? Is it better to try to find a used set that aren't rusted out? (assuming it is still possible) It would be nice to have a set made of...

    7.3 misfiring at high speed and blowing gray smoke.

    My truck had the same symptoms when the injection pump was going bad. I dont think your injectors are the problem. I think its time for a rebuild on the injection pump. Believe me my truck had exactally the same symptoms and once the rebuilt pump was on she was purring like normal again.

    I Got Stacks

    I dont currently have a good picture of the real thing although if you look close you can get the idea. The other pic is a drawing I made to give to the guy who built my bed.

    I Got Stacks

    Mine run through a box as well. It does have some muffling effect but so does a Y pipe. The box is the easiest and cheapest way to get around all the overpriced Y pipe and elbows. It is bolted down with springs on top like a wet line kit for a semi truck. This allows flex while holding securely...

    Need your input, What Bumper,..POLL

    I would keep the chrome. It looks a lot cleaner and fits the rest of your truck better.
