I have been looking for a week now for a Stainless Steel Cold Front for my 05. Do you know any body that makes ones or a supplier that sells one. I just think they look good and this thing takes 20 miles to warm up.

BTW on my 98 K1500 I used a stainless screen in the summer and made a liner out of plastic and put it between the grille and the screen in the winter.

Talk to maxpower, he sells the cloud rider stuff.


Jderk> How exactly did you make the liner? I was contemplating getting a screen and doing something similar but leave part of it open in the center to let air hit the trans cooler. Didnt know how it would work though? Hows yours holding up? May need to talk to max and see if I can get a screen instead of the solid onehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley24.gif

Ratlover,


I used a piece of plastic from a slipsheet. Thin and strong. I cut it to the same size as the screen and punched holes for the screws. I left a small square in the middle to give it a little air flow. I just put it behind the screen and bolted it back on. You don't even notice it. My plastic was black but a buddy of mine had a white truck and used a piece of white linoleum. It looked pretty good.
