Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

great progress man. lookin good. think i may have to borrow the semi bumper idea for my 95 z71, that looks KILLER! especially since im a truck driver lol cant wait to see the new pics

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

thanks. no problem steal my idea for the bumer. beats paying $800 + for the same bumper you can make. i can't wait to see it painted either.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

yeah no joke there. even my small budget has a small budget. i have wanted a big bumper but never thought about cutting down a texas bumper. have thought about fabing my own brush guard and have the idea of how i want it to work. when i get around to it ill post u a pic. hope it turns out as good as yours

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

well mine isn't finished. i plan on making a full face brush guard with a hood protector too. kinda like the hummer guard. i hope yours turns out better than mine. kinda like these.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

that would be SWEET! i have never seen those before. i assume they hinge for engine access. i have to get a notcher and bender before i even attempts brush guards. maybe soon.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

well she is painted. before and after pics.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

It's so beautiful!! Lol

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

lookin good man! looks like a big shiny red fire truck or ummm international tractor.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

here is a pic of the finished product. well for now till i make my cowl hood and finish the brush guard.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

Looks good. What a difference paint makes.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

thanks. the wife likes it better too. she will actually drive the truck now.:lol: everyone thinks i got a new truck. paint does make a real difference. my dad says i'm incognito. ha ha

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

ever seen the tow mirrors i have on my 98? they're like the ones off the 99+ gm trucks i think they would look awesome on your truck

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

yea they would look pretty good. be better if i had a lift on my truck.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

i think your truck is big enough for them

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

well i have been having problems with my rear brakes getting air in them. i have checked for leaks and can't find any. the pedal is spongy and to stop i have had to double pump them. brakes are adjusted. an so everyone knows i just put rear shoes on it 2 month ago. so i bought a reman master and deleted the rear wheel abs junk. WOW what a difference. stops great has a good stiff pedal with no fade at all. i'm pretty sure it was the rear wheel abs modual leaking air in the system,but either way it's fixed. here are a few pics of the end result. 3 bucks for abs delete. beats 200 bucks for a new abs modual.:metal:

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

I did the same on mine but didn't have to use a piece of line and a couple adapters, I only used one adapter and moved the line over.

I can't get mine to bleed now tho after deleteing it, has air in it and travels like yours did. going to switch MC's soon.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

i cracked the line at the prop valve to bleed the air there then went to the back lines and that fixed it.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

well put the stock chevy grill back in the truck. stock bumper, but I did get a full face grill guard. oh and installed towing mirrors.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

Why back to the stock grille and bumper?

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

stock bumper cause I wanted to put the grill guard on. stock grill because the gmc grill wouldn't fit with the stock bumper because I didn't have the filler. and didn't want to buy one. all this was free. so free is for me.

Re: my 90 ext cab 4x4 fixer upper
 

Don't blame ya there. I put a '94-'98 grille in my '92, but I already had the filler, and I also have the longer 94+ bumper brackets, so I can make it work. I just haven't got around to raising the brackets to match my body lift. :lol:
