73-80 Suburban side molding?



Does anyone reproduce it for a burb? I've been looking everywhere and can't find it. Brothers has a section for blazers/ burbs but they only have blazers listed. I'm guessing I'll just have to get a long bed crew cab kit then cut down and fold the ends down to fit the rear quarters, I also have barn doors so I'll have to do those too.

Re: 73-80 Suburban side molding?

Well darn, now I feel like an asshat lol. Lmc is usually the first place I look but they never sent me the catalog I ordered and their site is somewhat of a pain to use so I didn't even think about them. That sure does make things easier, thanks for the links bud!

Re: 73-80 Suburban side molding?

Lmc is a little expensive though, they don't offer a complete "kit" for the suburban so by the time you piece it all together it comes out to $377 ($412 after shipping). It's $237 from just the rear doors back. The pickup front half kit is $140. From Brothers a complete short bed kit is $239. I guess that's not horrible but I wonder what they'd say if I emailed them and asked if they could do a little better. Doubtful...

They don't offer a complete kit for the pickups either. Tailgate moldings are extra. Yeah I doubt you can negotiate with them.

Re: 73-80 Suburban side molding?

It seems they'd rather to nickel and dime you to death with the lack of complete kits but if they can get away with it i guess there's not much you can do. I might give them a call tomorrow just out of curiosity.
