I'm fairly positive they're not home brew, aside from the frame bracket they're 100% Bolt on.

Bought this contraption, came with it.



These are the bars in question


I can get more pix in the am, it's a 79 K5 frame
 
agree on homemade, but they are very similar in appearance to a set of Lakewood bolt-on ladder bars I had decades ago... bit bigger and bulkier tho...
 
10-4, I figured they were homemade at first, but the axle side brackets looked too legit in comparison to the rest of the turd. Haha
 
From the looks of the thickness of the spring pack, I wonder why he would ever need it?
 
that thing looks like it belongs in the next mad max movie

My friend said the exact same thing.

I bought it to partout and flip, I did another chevy last month and doubled and then some what I paid for it.

Paid for my new trailer :waytogo: this one I got for 400$ I'll easily be able to make money of this one as well.


Picking up a k5 after work to do the same thing with... I may have a new addiction..
 
Shortly after high school I had a 74 Chevelle Laguna S-3 that was black with red pin stripes and I had done a lot of research about putting it on a 74 Blazer Cheyenne chassis I had.

It would have worked without a lot of changes. I put both on lifts side by side at a friends mechanic shop. Instead I swapped engines and junked the chevelle.
 
here's the Lakewoods I had back in the day...
