Sweet long bed stepper with a 454 to boot!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Nice step side. How much lift, if any, do you have in your suspension? I like the stance of your truck. My 72 4 x 4 stepped has 4" of lift, but I am thinking of dropping it back down to stock.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Thanks elpound. I'm going to try and keep her stock. The T221 transfer case might give me some trouble keeping it stock though. I'm sure the coupler is shot but I haven't had the time to pull it apart.
The truck was bought as a cab and chassis. When I went to buy it the owner wanted to keep the flat bed off of it. It was correct to that year wish I would of took a picture of it. Everything is stock other than the wipers and I'm hoping I can keep it that way. W |

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
New to the site. Just picked up a 72 K10 last week but it looks like I can only link to pictures not actually attach them without being a premium member?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
This is my 70 k20 when it had 37's on it, they were too big, so previous owner removed them.

got it on some 32s because they came with the Rallys and they were cheap. Needs a bit bigger tire for the lift when I replace them. |
Re: post your 67-72 4x4
^^^ I like it!! Yes maybe 33s would look a bit better.

my 72 K20 cheyenne super. still needs a lot of work, but a good resto candidate down the road (and a return to 557 paint). just gonna drive it for now, once I exorcise the remaining electrical demons that is, ha - just a few left.

Cool truck with what looks like the original wheels and hub caps too!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
thanks for the kind words. it has a little rust, but the faded paint is kinda growing on me. It's not original, was repainted in 84, so still older than most trucks. It was redone in solid dark olive rather than the 557 with med olive top. 557 is one of the main reasons I was interested, one of my favorite paint combos. Not sure wheels are original, most had 16.5s and these are 16s (and I'm glad!). The caps, been saving them for quite some time for just the right truck to stick em on. Really want to do a frame off, and will someday, but planning to make it a second string driver for me and my wife's daily drivers - whichever one dies first. My 01 had about 240K mi, but still going very strong - it's been babied since new and kept up, so am hoping for many, many more miles. My wife's dd truck has about 200k on it, so it's a race to the graveyard. But, realistically, it's nice to have a back up when one of ours ends up in the shop for something - and that happens a bit more frequently with that many miles on em. Regardless, this is the truck I've been looking for for some time now. There are a very few minor things I wish it had (cab lights.. Custom Camper nameplate...) but very happy with what it is and don't plan to change it. Gonna enjoy driving it for now. Needs lots of work but will be drivable soon. Eventually, all the warts will get to me and I'll tear it apart.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
I totally agree with driving it, how many have ripped trucks apart and miss a lot of time (yeara) driving and enjoying then over build it to nice and hardly use it, have fun.

Guess I'm a little late to the game. Finally got done working on this... scratch that... finally got it to a point where it is drivable and presentable... You are never done working on these old vehicles.
