Re: Custom bumpers

Nice! Kinda what I'm looking for. I got a real nice gas tank skid plate and tank off a 72? suburban years ago, and swapped it onto my K5. Like I said on the other thread, I'll try to snap some pic's this weekend. Here's my project in a nutshell. Bought K5 in 1981, was daily driver in stock condition till like 1986. Installed 4" lift w/35" BFG"s, which included cutting the fenders a bit. 1990 installed the 8" lift w/ 39.5" s. swamper tsl's. Runs a 350 mtr., with 4 speed manual trans. Wife and I had a lot of fun w/this rig until wham-kids! Set of twins in 94 and 1 more in 98. All girls. Life goes on, K5 ended up on back burner. Put it in storage in 2000 and it's been there ever since. Found the internet thing and it was on! Planning to break it out and do it up right this time! Been buying parts and etc., getting ready, almost there. Wish I could weld!
