I have to say my shoulders hurt from driving the truck around town . Forget parallel parking with this truck . Might go with a 215/80r16 front tire less contact patch area .

A friend had a factory T-5 in his S/10 [forgot what year] and we changed it out three times. On my Stepside C/10 '68 w/292 L6, SM465, 3.73 and 235/85/16, I find the Drums all-around work well enough if maintained. But I've only been driving it for 49 years and 10 months.[406,000 miles]. Maybe I'll change my mind next month. :chevy: |

''Stretch'' Stepsides are pretty rare too. Most of the Stepsides I see are Model 10s. |

As I recall from the info packet from Chevrolet Heritage, GM tended to make the shortbed stepside trucks half-ton, and the longbed ones three quarters.
But if a buyer specified he wanted a longbed half-ton, or a shortbed 3/4 ton, they were more than happy to build it for him. |

Installed LED bulbs in dash cluster, now I can see the guages at night. Also installed a 15" steering wheel.

Pulled out the old vinyl, cleaned up some light surface rust, installed sound deadener and carpet. Now just to clean up, but thrilled with the feel of the interior with carpet versus the old flooring. Pictures aren't cooperating at the moment...

One of my Heater hoses had an annoying drip, so I upgraded both with new clamps - silicone style instead of the ones I had.

I didn't do all this today. It took me a few weeks but I finally got these wheels on the truck. I bought an old set of f@>d wheels and had them powdercoated(cosmic white metallic). I took the truck to the wheel shop and had some firestones mounted and ballenced. Brought the truck home and slapped these hubcaps on. I'm calling it good for a little while
