i'm also planning on using 255 60 15s on my 15 x 8 Ralleys. i'd also like to go with a 5/7 drop, i REALLY like the way your truck looks Ryan. i'm not meaning to copy, just like what i see. would it offend anyone if my truck looked alot like theirs for a while, Ryan?

Video? Eddie Im not showing you my video. The girlfriend would kill me
![]() Since the tranny isent actually bolted to the corssmember yet, I think a burnout video is a bad idea. Once its bolted up, then were on. Remember that tranny cooler you brought over? After driving around neighboorhoods for a while my tranny was hitting 180 degrees. Not supposed to go over 150. So I put that cooler in, and it has yet to hit 115 ![]() Jermey, do you think you can just walk in and take over my threads? Well ok just this once ![]() 275/60/15 tires are simple in back with a stepside. Thats what Im runnig front &back on my 78 with a 5" drop.

Tom, did you have to bend the fender lips in any? I've got no rub yet, but that's cause the rear bumpstops are only two inches off the frame!
