LMC Body Panels?

[espcamaro]

Has anyone bought bedsides, fenders, tailgates etc. from lmc trucks before? If so, are they worth buying, solid, or are they cheaply made?

that is where i get my cab corners and rockers at. they fit ok. i did buy one of the cheep tailgates and lets just say you get what you pay for on that.

how was it the 99 dollar tailgate? what was all wrong with it?

I bought inner fenders from them... Got em painted em pit em on and 2 minutes later put em in the scrap pile. No fender bolts lined up, only 1 cab bolt and 2 core support bolts. Really bad decision on my part to buy em.

If the $99 tailgate is anything like the cheap tailgates available elsewhere it's made of very thin metal and bends easily... Like you can't stand on it or it will bow and flex and eventually crease and crack.

I was wondering about the tailgates as well. Not having any luck finding a decent one locally

Yeah I know what you mean. It hard to find quality parts online if you can't find any locally like you said. If anyone knows of other sites that have better parts please let me know

You might try Tabco. I ordered some parts from them a while back l, they were good thick quality sheet metal.

yes it is the $99 tailgate. it does it job but just feels like it wants to give if i step on it.
