If you are new to the first Gen Trucks there is a bit of a surprise when it comes to finding parts for them. It can be rather difficult for somethings. There just hasn't been much of an aftermarket for them. It can take a lot of searching and sometimes junk yard runs.

also if your lookin for just about anything other than a cab, bed, badges and a few other things, look for a ramcharger cuz the internet is stupid and it seems like most things are only listed as ramcharger parts

For posting pics you have to use a photobucket type place and upload them there. Then when you are making a post click the "Insert Image" icon above looks yellow with a mountain. that will open a window and you paste the url from your photobucket pic and then it will display in your post after you submit it. Its a pain.
