Man you listen to your customers thank you.
We're trying!
This is awesone - thank you.
Nice job Dave !
Nice kit
Good video
This is great. Seems you have all aspects covered. Bed parts, brake lines, parking brake, and frame. All that's missing is a shorter driveshaft. Do you sell that also?
No sir, you have to take your driveshaft to a local shop and have it shortened. That's what we've done here and it seems to be the least costly option.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV How do you explain how much shorter you need the drive shaft?
@@Miguel2b887 it just needs to be 14" shorter.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV so the section behind the cab that is removed is 14" as opposed to the 12" youd remove on a 67-72?
@@maggs131 Yes!
Make a kit for the C20 yall!
I have a question. Is all of the bedsides stamped in the same molds?? Because I have a 73-80 truck but I want to build a new bed with no filler holes. That would require a 73-80 left side bed panel and a 81-87 right side bed panel with no fuel fillers
Call the shop to double check, bit we're pretty sure that's doable. 800-977-2767
I ordered this kit February, 25th, 2023 and I'm still waiting on it. What's the deal? Are these being manufactured overseas and there's a supply problem?
Will it work on a 89 gmc Sierra c1500?
@brothers. I bought the conversation kit but the video at 3:42 says there are bed body panels sold as a kit. I didn’t find it on the the website.
Sorry, that only applies to 67-72 at the moment. We will have complete 73-87 kits available soon! Thanks for asking.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV Looking forward to it! Very excited!
I can’t seem to find this kit on your website. I see the one for the 67-72 trucks but not 73-87.
A direct link to the kit is in the description.
Will it work on a 88 gmc k1500?
Really Good!! How much is for the kit ?
Current pricing can be found here: BROTHERS One-Piece Conversion - bit.ly/3kMq6XX
Does it work on a crew cab
Does this kit only work on the 1/2 ton frames?
No sir, we've used it on 3/4 ton and 4x4 chassis with no problems.
Do you have parts to rebuild a rusty 73-87 Cab?
Absolutely! www.brotherstrucks.com
Will it work on a 89 2500 Chevy Silverado? It’s a square body ..
Yes.
Is the kit going to stay or is it a limited kit?
It will be available always
Too bad the website doesn’t work
how about chev 1989 chev c2500
Dave...Do you offer a kit to shorten the bed on the 1955 to 1959 Chevy trucks? Why not? LOL!
Hello, Sorry Brothers does not offer a shortbed conversion for 1955-59.
Nothing but trouble with a Holley replacement bedside for me. Fits like crap. Disappointing.
I'm probably going to wind up replacing my entire bed with new parts I've heard good things about KEY body panels over the others
@@drjohnsonhungwell5115 that’s exactly what I did. I started with the Holley bed sides on the stock floor. Driver side fit awful. Replaced the floor with Key then the side panels fit better. However the driver side is still just bad. I think it was an assembly error of the inner/outer panel at the plant. I’m past 6 months of having it so I doubt they would be willing to replace it for me. AMD FTW.
Would this work on a 1978 c30 dually?
No sir, only 1/2 and 3/4 ton trucks
