no need to reintroduce your self everytime you post...lol! all you need to do to replace the back glass is get the glass and all the seals and put it in! the hardest part is gonna be getting the 3 piece window out.

i've never had to or have heard of replacing the studs to get gm wheels to fit. Boring the wheels should give it the length back to secure the lug onto the stud. You will need to replace the lug nuts because the stock nuts are not wide enough to grab the gm wheel. They are called acorn style lug nuts...i'll have to do some searching to find the size you'll need

Re: new from pville
usaully ppl dont use the silverado wheels because of the center cap. that is the reason he needed different studs and nuts. the screw on nuts for the center caps wont fit/ they dont make for nissan studs

Re: new from pville
ryan that extra effort paid off cause those wheels look sick on there.
and slamminjammin if you're talkin about the old school Z71 16" wheels, all you gotta do is bore those. check out infamousnissan if you wanna redrill your leaf spring hangers. i made a how-to thread on there
