Tire size.....well, the front are 235/75/15 because there are clearence issues. At the very least, the front wheels and tires are going to change. Those wheels just aren't going to work. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, but something has to change. The rears are 275/60/15's. Yeah there is alot of sidewall, but I think they ride much better than the big wheel, no sidewall setups that are all the rage, I drive it everyday so comfort is a big consideration. It rides better than the last new truck I bought, (2000) so I don't figure I'll change that. I'm not into the big wheel toy truck looking wheels and tires. I leave the big wheels to the vehicles with fart cans, spoilers and neon lights.
JMO....
What next? Well that's a good question. There are alot of little details that need to be done under the hood. I need to clean things up a bit. A little rewiring and rerouting needs doing.
I need to trace down a wiring problem that keeps blowing my heater fuse.
I guess I'm going to start gathering parts to do a swervin ervin instrument panel. Would also like to find a good used tilt colum to install at the same time.
Electric windows and locks, new glass all around and completely redo the interior.
Needs a new wiper motor, mines a little flaky. Fortunately it doesn't rain much here, so that's not a top priority.
I plan to cut that honking reciever hitch off. You can't see it in the pics but it is like 6" off the ground and I drag it on everything. Then replace the step bumper with a burb rear bumper and replace the slightly bent front bumper....... Once I start the body work, I'll ditch the handrails, bed rails, moulding and drip rails.
etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.
I've got tons of stuff planned, just not the time to do it all right now. Little League starts in a couple of weeks, so I don't figure I'll have much time to work on it till probably....uummmm......September??....at least no big projects anyway....but I have a million little details that need to be done in the mean time to take up any spare moments I find.....I've got to dam many hobbies is the problem.....
