Thoughts? How about lens gaskets as well? I would imagine they'll work on a NOS part.

The hardware is nothing special, Home Depot and lowes carry stainless screws. Lens gaskets are just cushions and repros work fine.

I agree. I go to our hardware store from the 1800's. They seem to have all the SS hardware I am looking for. They put HomeDepo to shame. lol

I can not imagine Home Depot having taillight bezel clips but I could be wrong. and yes the repo ones will work with the NOS bezels

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
