A/c is gone on mine also. I tossed the controls and made a plate out of a old licence plate. Screwed it on where a/c control was and gave me a spot to put my light switches.
Did you ever upload the Lift install video? I was looking for the complete "how to". Ive got an 87 GMC Jimmy that is running on factory running gear and 31's. At some point I think Id like to swap to 35's. Nothing too crazy, from waht Ive read the 4" lift and 35s is the "sweet spot" for a daily driver/hunt rig/camp rig, etc.
Everything is just spray tinted with Rustoluem spray tint! I had spare lights for everything so it was no risk to try it out.

What should I do to this rig next?? Let me know!
8 lug 3/4 or 1 ton axles, and a 454....
Give it to Me !! LOL

Awesome idea!
Brother, please put a roll bar in that rig. 3pt’s are great, but won’t protect your precious cargo if the unthinkable happens.
Beautiful rig!
Get rowdy and throw a 7.3 in there ! Helps keep the frame rust free with the perpetual oil leak 🤟🏻
Hahaha Hey that really would be a wild swap!! Thanks for watching!
Very cool. Trying to get Amish built garage this year. Got a 81c10 to rebuild. 3 other Projects in line.
That would be amazing!
Super sick rear seat man. I would consider upgrading the bolt you used to grade 8 though. 🙏
Thank you!! I will look into that!!
6.0 LS with Holly Sniper EFI made a world of difference to my 85 K5 👍 Highly recommended that.
Looking good tho
Sounds awesome man, would love to do that!
Hey bro just stumbled onto your channel that k5 is the shit can’t find many of those ,fng nice 👌👌👌
Thank you!! Welcome to the channel!
Those trucks rot the same way down here in Texas brother, those K-5 and all square body Chevys love to hold water
I don't feel so bad then!
4:13 i had to cut that steering arm into 3 seperate pieces with a plasma cutter and cutoff wheel to get it off. good luck to anyone taking that on lol
They are a nightmare. I was hitting it with a 20lb sledge to get the collars to come upn
Nice Truck, i have a 1980 gmc jimmy, been swapping it to nv4500/ magnum/205 60/14…
That's awesome! 80 is a great year, we are different!
Looks good bro 👌🏻
Thank you!

Unfortunately i lifted it well before RUclips. The 4 inch and 35s seems to be a nice upgrade, im happy with it but don't drive the truck often
Love be the bumper sticker .
Where did you get those blacked out lenses? They are sick!

When you put the front seats in. Where are you getting the brackets from? I have the same Denali seats just in black.
There's a RUclipsr called Merricks Garage who makes them or I could give it a go and make them myself

Love the soft top! Who makes it???
Thank you! It's made by Softopper. Great company with even better customer service!
Is that interior color saddle tan? Do you happen to know?
I'm honestly not sure!
What about drives haft length or any changes due to the lift?
The drive shaft was extended and front brake lines were extended

For sale ?
Not yet! Still having fun with it!
Don't run a doubler on a K5. Rear drive shaft angle is too steep
Cummins swap??? No balls.....
So you think I should cross the brands? It would be easier swapping an old 12 valve in it!! But I definitely have considered going for a Duramax....
