Re: Vent Window Assembly

Personally, I'd hit the classies if yours are truly broke. Someone comes up with a decent pair frequently.

JBD, more than likely they'll be Precision parts. They can be a pain to install, but your old ones had 25 yrs to fit right. If you really want to know, try a phone call.

Re: Vent Window Assembly

If you do the screwdriver thing on the tailgate, wrap some tape around the screwdriver so you don't chip the paint on the edge of the bedside.

Thanks. I did call LMC today about an air cleaner snorkel to the core support.

My question I thought was pretty simple

Me: "I want to buy your air snorkel for my 86' C30 but you don't even HAVE this truck in your drop down on the checkout screen."

Them: "we don't have any mechanics here that can tell you if it will fit. You should find a mechanic and ask them."

Me: "What brand are you selling so I can look around for info."
Them: "We source from many manufacturers. We cannot tell you what you will receive"

Me: "Kind of makes it hard to research information when I don't know what you are selling".

Basically no help whatsoever.



For now I'm going to search the junkyard. Need to get that lower pivot re-attached first anyways.

Re: Vent Window Assembly

yep, LMC doesn't do bigger trucks. Enough crosses over from the 10 series that they are not completely worthless. You just have to figure out what will work.
