Thanks everyone. The drop is a 4", 6" (spindles @1.5"springs front) from Early classic. Tire size is 275x60x15 & 225x60x15. Going to get exhaust on Tuesday, so I still can't drive it yet. Not quite done, as Blue Beard noticed, still need mirrors, inner fenders, & tail gate

I didn't think I liked the rims painted body color. I love yours! That color really works.
Beautiful truck. Are the side markers there? |
