| Tri-Five Chevys (1955-57) are an American icon. They have been, and always will be, some of the most collectable and restorable automobiles ever produced. In this segment of Eastwood Garage , Sam and Dennis look at some replacement parts and updates for your Tri-Five that will not only make it look sharper and handle better, but that will also make it safer!
This segment begins with Sam and Dennis looking at one special 1957 Chevy; a '57 Panel Delivery equipped with glass! This car is only one of 92 ever produced and is a vehicle that needs to be kept in perfect working order. Historically, the steering gears in these vehicles were often weak. Well, to keep this cool wagon safely on the road, the folks at Classic Chevy International have designed a power steering rack and pinion system that includes everything needed to make your Tri-Five handle better than when it was new. This complete kit includes belts, brackets, bushings, and all the other necessary hardware! In addition, there is another great feature of this kit—no drilling! All parts use the existing holes and works with the stock outer tie rod ends. In other words, you get a perfect fit, and guess what? Everything works to fit either your original steering column, or any new aftermarket parts. The key benefits to this system are improved safety, an improved ease of steering, a custom look, and perhaps best of all, it's easy to install.
Next, Sam and Dennis take a look at LED tail light replacements. These special LED tail lights are super bright when compared to the stock light bulbs that were originally used. Consequently, that means improved visibility and more safety! They are easy to install (installation time is one hour or less and all connectors plug in easily) and they are designed for long life. The complete kit includes turn signals, brake lights and tail lights. So, if your classic Chevy, including your Tri-Five, needs an update then turn to the pros at Classic Chevy International.
