Well im about buy an 05 lly regular cab 4x4 for a daily driver truck.. It has 6k original miles but needs some body work, no frame damage whatsoever. Where is a good place to buy body parts? I need front fenders and likely the hood...

LMC truck has a bunch of body parts, but they aren't always very straight. Your best bet is to find OEM panels at a junk yard; most yards will have panels that are rated. Look for the ones that are rated at a quality for an insurance company to use. Wish i could remember what they called the ratting but they should know what you are talking about. It will basically be a good as new body panel, it will just need paint.

No problem, many around here do (Houston and Austin). They sort out all the good and bad most will have whole sections with just front clips on shelves then a section of beds ect...
