Don't have any current of the 70 working, since it is aprat at the moment, but here is one of it doing some light work and a couple of the 96 getting into it. The sod was alot, although I have no idea of the actual weight. I have yet to get it to squat that way again, even with all the other stuff I have hauled with it.

Can someone post some pics if I e-mail them to you?I have some printed photos of some of the work trucks I`ve had.

Jim how do those boys run empty, cuz they sure don't look like the squat much under load? (I like that :D )

Bill,
The Chevy has stock rear springs, on the GMC I added an add-a-leaf and it is noticeably stiffer. I think the sidewalls of the tires help, a little. Since I put the stepside on the gmc I also replaced the rear springs w/ 4" lift rears from tuff country, a noticable improvement. I plan on putting the add-a-leaf on the Chevy.

Pulling a stump and hauling junk.

Here's a pic of my 71 hauling in the heat last winter,and one I took today of the 67 1 ton doing it's summer job.

Should have taken a pic of mine with a yard of mulch this past spring. That's probably the most it's hauled so far.

Here's a few pics of my car hauler bringing in other 67-72's!

Right now there's a load of cinder blocks(approx. 50) from the 1940s in the back, damn things have to weigh 45lbs each, not solid blocks but the holes are small compared to todays blocks.

So Jim, you don't need blinkers down there in VA?? :hm: :lol: J/K

Great trucks your running!! :cool:

You just need reflectors on your hand to be legal at night.

I guess I'm kinda pushing it. I have the parking lights and a 70 grill w/ lights. But like Special K said watch for the hand signals.

Does this count? :hm:
