figured I would throw together a thread on my saved from the scrapyard 02 z71.The truck came into the yard my buddy runs last september it sat for 4 yrs prior to being sent to the yard.The day it showed up I jumped right on it it was missing the keys so I removed the ignition and grabbed one with a key from a tahoe that was there threw a battery in it after a few minutes got it fired.was running real rough from the old gas.well winter set in and here in mass we got wailed with a record snowfall thru feb into march.So it sat till a few weeks ago when another friend of mine moved it to my house on his ramp truck.As of now I have replaced a few injectors starting to run smoother still has about an1/8th of a tank of bad gas with some good mixed in gotta finish running it to empty.So far I have the 33's off of the 99 xcab we had that got totalled back in feb on it took out the jumpseat and installed a console and new door panels,cab visor and and a few other small things here are the pics so far I have taken.

Looking good. I wish I had some time and money to put into either of my trucks. But family sucks all that up quick.

thanks,to be honest with you the only things I had to buy was the fuel pump and pressure regulator.Everything else is stuff I have had sitting around that I have collected down the salvage yard off of trucks that they pull from inventory to crush.Pays to have a good friend running the place

That's the plan. I'm going to add factory color matched flares and a cowl or hd hood along with a wheels, tires, etc

are you talking about the turn signal/running light section or the drl part? all the bulbs are 3157 leds 18 smd white in the turn signals and amber and white in drls,cut drl wire and connected those to a speed tech lighting led strobe module and that has 8 or 9 different flash patterns also connected to that is the grille leds which are a set of the auto zone led strobes made by alpina that i found in a 94 chevy 1500 plow truck grille at the junk yard
