Dam dude, i really like this truck keep up the good work

 

New puppy, new shoes. Got my steering stabilizer today, hopefully I can get my alignment dialed in this weekend and the stabilizer welded up. Just did a driveway tape alignment on install. It drives straight, but I think I have a little too much toe in.

 

What happened to the 35s? Truck still looks great! I like the new tire wheel combo

 

They're piled up in the shed, they rubbed a bit and since I am not happy with these springs or the axle placement yet I didn't want to start cutting. They're for sale if anyone wants them, I'll buy another set when the time comes, but the way things are going I won't have the money to do the suspension for a while. No sense in cutting my truck up now to fit something now that may fit later without cutting. These should net me some MPGs and a little more hill power, since this is my DD that would be

 

cool..raised white letters should go to the inside though

edit: I want your Corbeaus

 

Your truck makes me wet my pants.

 

I bought the tires used and mounted, no choice.

I absolutely love those seats, a 5 hour drive round trip to get tires and my back wasn't even sore. Can't praise that enough.

 

Shoulda bought it when you had te chance!

 

Rubbing salt in the wound...

 

What tires are those in the last photo? 33 km2?? 10.5 or 9.5?
I want 33x10.5 BFG km2 on my stock steel wheels but don't know if I can fit

 

I think you should be able to fit them.

 

Just confirmed the wheels are 15x6. I don't want to roll the bead when I air down. Don't know if narrow rims help or hurt this issue. Kinda new here

 

They are 33x10.5s and the wheels are 15x7s I dunno if I would go to a 6 inch rim

 

I ran my BFG ATs on my stock 15x6s and never had a problem only went to a 7" wide wheel to have my stockers repainted

 

First of all, BIG ups to a S/C builder. Like the Truck man, Classy Style with the 'Round Eye' 81'. I'm jelly, for sure.

Secondly, and to answer the quoted Question, You will see high likelihood of 'bead-rolling' with a 15x6 on a 10.5 diameter tire. I swapped out some 15x8 D-Windows for the Old 15x6 90's Steel Plate rims, and am certainly leery of airing down for just that reason.

Keep it Up, SCToys, lookin' good.

 

Thanks, holler at me if you see me around town, I drive it 2 or 3 days a week at least.

Update:
Replaced some vacuum lines
Unclogged the EGR
Fixed leaking exhaust
Getting 21.5 mpg average now!

 

Made these to replace the one my dog chewed up.

 

Those shift knobs look absolutely great. Maybe make me some?

 

Haha, I could if people are interested

 

How much would you want for a set?
