My buddy is converting his front 10bolt to 8 lug. The local NAPA guys are idiots and can't find the right backing plates. Does anyone have a GM part number for the backing plates. You try to tell these guys that the 3/4ton stuff is the same and they just want to argue with you.

Just tell them you want the one for the 44.. Dont even mention the 10 bolt (it just confuses them)

I asked at three places around here and got nothing but blank stares and BS. On the ColoradoK5 site there's an address and phone number for Border Parts; they to know how to get them. Seems like trying to get someone to understand what you want (to even TRY) is a lot more trouble than just having them shipped from San Diego. Insert long, rambling rant about the quality of parts-store help here.
