Hello Everyone!!

I have a '86 Std Cab. I'm currently working on bodying/fitting '86 4x4 fenders and bed onto the truck. I've orderd an '89 Chrome 2wd Front Bumper and lower Valance. The only thing left is the conversion brackets from '86 to '89 style bumper. I called FBI rides, they are waiting for the material for weeks. I called CanDo, they have most of the parts to do it and will cost $100 bucks. I was wondering if you guys have specifics to do it or know anyone in Pacific Northwest that may make it locally. Or somewhere a bit cheaper.

Thanks!

 

you pretty much listed off all the people i had in mind when you mentioned this conversion. im looking to do the same with my 86 and place a 89+ bumper and valance on mine. keep us posted on what this ends up looking like. good luck

 

I think Slacker built his own set of conversion brackets. You might hit him up for some tips.

 

Thanks! I just got the whole front chrome parts in last week Thursday. I just mocked it up and man does it look sick!! Just need those brackets and I'll be set...

 

these are what your looking for

sorry, my bad....Didnt read your full post. You allready contacted FBI.

 

if i had a stock 86 frame and a 89 bumper i could build a set. and for way less than $100

 

If you don't have the means of making it yourself take your stuff to a local welding/fabrication shop and see what they can do. It isn't to hard, and i'm sure it is less than $100

 

just make your own brackets....
its very simple......
i had to make brackets for my 94 4 runner bumber and valence to fit on my 85 toyota pick up and it came out good.....

 

That red truck is a nice ride! That bumper and grill combo looks good

 

thanks

 

thats rattle can too haahha

 

Thats your truck? Seen you around before

 

yea thats my truck....it was red and black before....but i painted it one color for the last cruise i hosted back in oahu....but i gave the truck to my younger brother for now till i get back from vegas....


what crew you roll with...????

 

you from waipahu???

 

I no roll with anyone ever since my friend got rid of his truck. I just sit in my truck by myself, i barely know anyone.
I seen that truck on the cruise, the curry house cruise.
and yes i from waipahu

 

what curry house cruise?????
you must see the truck around waipahu too than

 

The farewell cruise was for you? I call it the curry house cruise cause thats where you guys all ended up at after, curry house ala moana.
I think i have seen it around before. Out of all the trucks in your crew im suprised i dont see more of them out more often(no offense).

Nice work though.

 

yea the farewell cruise was for me but i dont remember going to ala moana curry house but any way....
