Ha thank you very much... My fuel bill is killing me right now, but you gotta pay to play.

Funny you should mention those wheels. My original plan was to get rid of the duals but those wheels have single handly convinced me to keep them

Ah .... the wheels. I've been searching for a spare for a year now. Nothing turns up on the used market for some reason. I've got them on my crew.

As for the fuel ... I've added a 50 gal. auxlry. fuel tank to my bed. I guess that's why it sits in the driveway so much.

I'm looking into have them polished up right now... there is a shop here in town with an automatic polishing machine that do semi rims... and they come out GOOD!!

I suspect my spare tire is just a steel rim (yah i still have the original spare) I just haven't crawled under neath yet

Surprising how a truck from 89 can have nicer rims then todays trucks...

Good luck with the rig ... it'll be interesting I'm sure. Keep us posted.

Here's a picture of my 1988 Air National Guard 6.2 Diesel pickup, 4.10 axle ratio. It's a great truck. You have to love the military stencil on the dash!

I like it, what are your plans for it?

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
I am driving it now, to work, building supply yard, the dump, flea market etc. No long trips. On the 88, it drives nice, although geared low. My previous M1008 was just geared too low for daily use. On this one, I need to fix some minor rust, and paint at least the bed.

I sometimes get a bit of a rumble feeling when decelerating, so I might have a bad u-joint somewhere? I'll have to look into that before it gets too cold for driveway wrenching. H.

Want specs and information on that shorty dually...pretty much the same thing I am in the process of building. Minus the 59' Impala dash....more pics as well please.

If you want email it/them to me at automationcreations@inetbiz.ca



...and I say keep the black one. That was going to be my other option, keep it SRW and still 8 bolt. I like it...

:metal:
