I'm back and have GMC headlight question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Oregon 1967 GMC** · 08-22-2021, 10:01 PM

So what am I missing? I have retainer ring, spring and two adjustment plastic screws. Is there an additional bowl or something. Don't remember that. The retainer ring holes are too small for plastic adjustment screws to go through.

There is a smaller bucket that the headlight attaches to, and then the springs and adjusters "connect" that to the radiator core support.

Thanks. I wonder if LMC has them? I don't see in catalog.

Here's a possible source. I'm not sure if these are right.

You need the headlight retainer rings.

Where did you see the buckets on the gmcpauls.com website? I looked and couldn't find them. I do see Chevrolet buckets on there, but I believe the Chevrolet buckets are larger in diameter than GMC buckets.

Sorry, thought I seen the buckets in the photo. the buckets are on Ebay also.

I googled what I wanted and GMC Paul's came up. Emailed and got this response :
We sell the GMC headlight buckets as a 8pc set that includes buckets and retaining rings. We do offer the buckets separate as our manufacturer only offers it as a set. They can be found on following page of our website
