GAP AT SERIES EMBLEM AND BODY SIDE MOLDING

MOULDING - SERIES EMBLEM TO BODY SIDE MOULDING GAP

VEHICLES AFFECTED: 1988 C/K TRUCK -----------------

Some 1988 C/K models may have a gap between the series emblem and the body side moulding on the front door.

If this gap exists, it can be eliminated by performing the following procedure:

* Remove series emblem from the body side moulding.

Note: Removal is accomplished by pulling or prying.

* Clean all dirt, oil and grease from the back of the series emblem and the body side moulding.

* Using 3M tape P/N 6379 or 6380 or equivalent, cut two pieces three inches long.

* Apply the two pieces of tape to the back of the series emblem as shown in Figure 1.

* Remove protective backing from each piece and reattach the emblem to the door.

* Using a roller, firmly press the emblem to the body side moulding several times to ensure full tape contact.

* Repeat this procedure on the opposite door if this condition exists.
