Ipaintgrt Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Hi Guys, I'm trying to mount a wing and I need some mouinting brackets. I messaged one of our members, but cant even find them on Ebay. Anyone have any ideas where to get a set? Looking forward to getting these on. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopnewton Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 Where did you get the wing from? I would like one but I can only find the eBay wings. BTW the guy who sells the brackets is Carls LQ9 SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipaintgrt Posted October 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 For anyone interested. Here are part numbers for the ISS wing ISS Schematic and part numbers.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1FASTBRICK Posted October 10, 2016 Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Just about everything has been discontinued. I tried ordering some of the bolt #5 and they have been replaced by what GM deems as suitable replacements. There supposed to be a flush mount bolt. Instead I received a hex head bolt similar to #9 . When the dealer contacted GM they said it was a suitable replacement. Part # 2,3,4,9, and 10 are about all you can get as they are used on similar Years, Makes, and Models also found else where on the vehicle. They would not even give templates to mount the end pieces that mount to the bed sides even after I got the dealer the the info from this forum. Best GM would do is send screen shots to the dealer with the info I provided. I asked them to send the PDF or have them print the template and I would gladly pay for it. Apparently the individual at GM said no. I have a feeling a dealer body shop might be able to get the info through GM but the parts guy would not go any further with GM. At least the emblems I ordered came with the info to properly locate them on the vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipaintgrt Posted October 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Yes, They told me that most of this stuff had been discontinued at the dealership. So I'm trying to piece together the hardware needed to install this. I'm sure I can get most of the bolts at a good hardware store. I mostly needed the needed the inserts that go in the tailgate. Fortunately they are still available. I bought an aftermarket wing of Ebay. Its not really very good quality, but there isn't much to choose from.

someotherguy Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 A good fastener supply like Tifco may have the correct bolts or something very close. They have a ridiculous catalog, also viewable online. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXGM Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I would post an ad in the FS and looking section. I know I've seen folks post they have the template and may be willing to make a copy for you. Maybe do a search in the archives as I think I saw something not that long ago....

That was me and some one that had an original sent me a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipaintgrt Posted October 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Poopnewton, sorry I didn't notice that you asked me a question. I bought a wing off Ebay. Its the ureathane. Its very poor quality. I'm sending it back and going to try a fiberglass one. I like how they look, but the quality of what I"m finding really sucks.

someotherguy Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Dunno where you're located but if you check craigslist you -might- find people selling the fiberglass ones, at least that way you could check it out local instead of having it shipped.
