putting power windows and locks in 86 scottsdale
« on: February 08, 2009, 02:41:30 AM »
wondering what it would all entail to put power windows and locks into a 1986 scottsdale heavey half.
I`ve been looking for a project truck for a while now and came across a nice one for a reasonable price. It`s not eactly what I want though. what I`d like is a 86 silverado with a 6.2l diesel. I found an 86 k5 blazer with a diesel but it`s in tough shape, which way would you guys lean...I don`t know much about the k5`s and they are about the same price but the scottsdale is about 4 hours closer to me.....arrrggg I just don`t know...maybe I should just keep looking. :-\

with my truck i can only have 1 passenger but with a blazer you can carry 3 makes it more fun. I've been looking for one lately for that reason and the stance is a lot shorter than my lwb looks better lifted is some peoples eyes

The title is power in an 86.  so you just need the motors and wiring and switches for them and they bolt in.  Anything 77-91 will work.  We have new setups in the store also.
