This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy..

    Full size 2 wheel drive 1/2 ton Chevy trucks/vans use the same bolt pattern. There must be hundreds of them in your local yards

    there is no local yards here lol. everything gets scraped out by the meth heads. they crush running driving cars cause they need a fix. closest one to me is 2 hour drive.

    It's 875 miles from here according to Google. If that was 800 miles less I'd drive them down myself :)

    If you can find anyone heading that way from the North east I'd be happy to meet up with them someplace local to get them on the way.

    Maybe we can find enough members here to do a bucket brigade delivery between here and there!

    Five on five pattern was retained all the way through 98/99/00 on certain full size GM trucks

    yeah 00 suvs and even later in vans but i have no yards near me at all and they want more than i really want to pay them at the ones in driving distance. im not paying 300 bucks for some junk steelies if that makes sense.

    I would bought more in the past from the pick a parts, for re-sale, but they cost too darn much to ship.

    I could've grabbed them from John @ Cecil & was even in CT last weekend not far from his place had I known plus I'm heading to KY this weekend but seemed like it was under control.

    Missed connections.

    Dano, where are you located? If not too far I'd pick them up from John and meet you for a handover.

    thats my problem also the later trucks iirc are all 16s i need a set of 15s. just something until i can afford the 17s i want.

    I'm in MD & even saw/talked to John for awhile @ Cecil. Probably wasn't more than 10 miles from his place last weekend too. I'd told @nekkidhillbilly I was heading out to KY & could bring them but then saw in this thread that John was bringing them to Cecil so figured you guys had it all worked out for him to get them.

    Surely someone can get them from CT to KY in May.
