I haven't c-notched it yet because it doesn't hit, I have about 2 inches between the axle and the frame. if I run my spare under the bed then I will have too. I have a notch ready to install but haven't put it in yet. going to get it coated first.

I bought them here. But you have to know which panels you have. The Silverado panels like mine are different.

PS- Did you Shackle it after the Flip Kit? I liked it with the rake.

Yes im running a shackle as well, it still has a rake because of the bigger tire in the rear. I agree a little rake looks good, that why I used a level on the bed rail to make sure it still had a rake. :metal:

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Very cool Project82, nice picture. Would have been cool to talk trucks with you.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Hell yeah! When My father and I walked by your truck I think you were talking to someone about the value of the factory bed rails...Which set the truck off very nicely with the stock trim!
I need to get out more often! Maybe you'll see mine this year sitting out front of Autorama! I'd like to have it done for the Super Chevy Show in Baytown, but that's coming up real soon! A little too soon... :waah:

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

I like seeing all the houston projects. I am from the area too. I love the color of your truck. The bed rails and molding just set it off. What is the factory color name?

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Daaaang... Where's the rest? Very nice. You and Ken oughta get together with JWall. That'd be an awesome shot goin' down the freeway! Good Work!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Thanks Low Elco, that would be sweet. Ken is a local buddy of mine so that could be easily done but JWall is far away. The other pics are the good ones hehehe.
