Man anyone know a good place for truck parts? I guess I'm just spoiled in the Vette and f-body. But there are crapload more trucks out there fixed up then our cars.
I am trying to spruce the truck up a bit and would like to do it with as little money as possible. If I wanted wheels for the Vette its no problem finding good used stuff. Trying to find some decent six lug 15 x8 with some 33's on them is a WHOLE different story, when you do find them people want new prices.
Anyone know a good source for truck parts like the 73-87 chevys and 88-91 Blazers?

I've found some Blazer forums but the classifieds are pitiful, basically stock crap or old beat up rusted crap.
I haven't found a good one for 73-87 trucks which is wierd, seems like it would be easy, maybe I'm just not looking hard enough
Maybe I should just sell it and buy a 92 Tahoe, I can find 20's used all day long for those...

Summitracing is good for performance parts. Try LMCtruck.com, http://www.73-87chevytrucks.com, and fullsizechevy.com, which is an awesome message board for the full size chevy pickups. I'm Loudnfast91 over there.

They look MUCH better with a dish to them IMO...Have you tried eBay for anything? Wheels and tires would be expensive to ship but there should be lot's of other stuff. Also, like mentioned, LMC is a great source for just about anything you could want for a 73-87 GM pickup. JCWhitney actually carries a lot of stuff for those years too. I got a molded carpet from them about 10 years ago for my 1980 Chev. The fit/quality was excellent and the price could not be beat. Light Truck Parts in Portland is a great source for used pieces.
Hope that helps ya buddy.

Yeah but with 15 x 10's I'm looking at lifting it a bit, and finding a used lift is even harder But you are right my cosmic twin (inside joke) I wouldn't be happy with 8's. HELL I'm even starting to think of something like 15 x10's with 305/60/15 BFG radial TA's off course that would mean the end of my wheeling days........
I'll check out light trucks parts I need a couple of interior peices that I can't find in LMC
