Re: 16.5 inch wheels - Love 'em or Lose "em ???

hey looks great.. that will be a great hauler, or is that the new project for the youngest one... I wish my dad had been as nuts about vehicles as you guys are!!! So what is the powerplant n' stuff thats going into this one??? Im thinking 383/NP4500/Eaton rear and pull anything you could dream of... OH i guess I should comment on the tire selection... I have a set of 16.5/9.75's here that eventually will find their way onto my 3/4 ton when im done with school... I didnt have that big of a prollem finding decent tires for the 16.5 rim... prices arent that bad either... blast'em powder coat (can do your self if you three guys can con mom into "letting" you use the oven ... and you even got the right dogdishes... what else does this thing have on it??? enjoy the heat...
