I know they are on the Chevrolet's. Should be the same on the GMC's as well, but that's the first one I've seen on a non HD truck.

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

did some more searchin on the hd hood swap for gmc. NOT a bolt on affair. i never noticed it before but they never made a gmc "HD" hood. they all have the same hoods half ton to one ton. to get the hd hood for a gmc you have to buy a chevy hd hood and cut and roll around where the headlights go.

That truck belonged to fiddy9apache, who used to be a member here (still is, just hasn't posted in a while). He's had some nice trucks.

Re: offical lowered thread of standard cab pu, lets see them!

The HD hoods are not direct bolt on...GMC's HD didnt have a special hood so we have to use silverado hoods and they do require some trimming/cutting/welding up front to match the head light contour..and they are the TEXAS GMC edition wheels i beleive...they look great on these nbs'! im getting ready to do an HD hood on my 04 sierra...

Perfect stance and wheel combo.

What size tires and backspace? Guessing your state enforces front plate laws and clear marker light laws.

I am sorry if I mislead anybody with my last question. I was asking about C-10 Drivers Sierra.
