Good question I don't know. I'm not even sure my reverse lights are working.

Okay another question, I replaced my taillights with LED units also, and they work great, however I noticed my ABS light is staying on? Could the LED bulbs be doing this? I also installed an electronic flasher to handle the LED bulbs.

Never mind my last post. The LED bulbs were causing the truck to act funny. The abs light kept coming on and the transmission acted weird going up hills. Changed the bulbs back to the normal ones and its normal again. Gonna have to try it with load resistors because the electronic flasher doesn't seem to prevent the LED from acting odd.

I need some opinions. So my 95 has a blue cowl a white manual locks and Windows door and a white front end. I found a Flare side exactly like mine and they want $350 for the correct door cowl front end and tailgate. I also need tires.. Which would you do? Save for tire's or ****** up the parts that you need to get it to look like it's not from a trailer park?.. I mean I need a tailgate anyway for it and none are being parted out around me in the maroon color or any Flare sides for that matter.. It's just a decision I need opinions on what would you all do? Thank you all in advance.

Depends on how bad your tires are and how often you drive it.

they are slicks and eh, I drove it 100 miles today. But that's just because I went to the junk yard and and showed someone the truck and helped my buddy pull the transmission out of his 89 and didn't want to dirty up my other truck. But I'll have enough for tires before it starts snowing and stuff. I think I'm going to get the parts since they aren't the easiest to find around here. Plus $350 isn't bad considering some places want $250 just for the tailgate..

No brainer - get the body stuff. It's hard enough to find things in the color you want let alone flareside stuff. I'd see if you can pull the fenders too.
