I just [today!] received a 2004 GMC short bed from my Mom! My Dad used it to plow, he passed in '05. It just been sittin' in her garage all this time, w/ minor trips to take my niece to college. It's only got 16K miles on it! [The front chrome bumber has lotsa ...
Me and my dad are going to mount an orange led strip in the slot below the grille, usually where the plow connections are stored. If anyone has done this please post and how you mounted it, etc. Thanks!!

... and still getting the hang of the forum so i hope im in the right place for asking this question... I have a 03 silverado 4x4 1500 LT Z71 i want a plow on it and was wondering if i could just swap the torsion bar to beef it up a little? i know i should of just got a 2500 or bigger but i got this ...
