Re: slammed 57
The truck is looking amazing! We talked a while back when I was "slammed" with the pandemic stuff. You really helped me getting going on my project. Thanks!!!
Random question: Do you remember the backspacing on your front rims? My Scotts seems like the rotor sits pretty far back towards the frame. Also, what did you end up with on clearance between the front tire and fender? Thanks again for helping me out so much at the beginning of my project. |

as for tire to fender I have 3.5" of clearance. Remember when you ride these trucks low your going to need some clearance for turning. having then this low your always going to rub some where ( its just the nature of the beast) question is, when you get a good turning radius do you want it to rub on the outer lip of the wheel opening of the fender or the frame. I pick the frame because its a smooth surface and no one will ever see the rub mark . the wheel opening on your fender is going to chew up your tires and even worse damage your fender a bit. mine rubs just ever so slightly on the frame at full steering lock. hope this helps. |

Well been working slow motion here. Had my mother in law and father in law pass away so I been dealing with them and their assets. But I did manage to finish up the engine bay took it for a spin around the block a few times, then to have a rear main seal redone due to it leaking, so I had to pull the tranny to fix it. But it’s done and runs REAL good and zero leaks. I also added a hydroboost system for the cam gave me poor vacuum for the brakes( I had a gut feeling that was going to happen) but it stops on a dime now. Iam moving on to finish color sanding and getting the rest together. Talk to y’all soon
