Looks like a tight fit in the trailer.

was so...about an 1.5 on either side to the trailer wheel tubs...this is the widest trailer they make.....you don't realize how big these square bodies are till you put it in a trailer....

Good Luck

STOCKISH · 02-13-2010, 02:32 PM

Looks great. Make sure you keep us posted with the fab work pics.

britnjc · 02-13-2010, 03:04 PM

I would have drove it in the trailer, then took a nap in the seat till you got there to unload. These trucks are heavy to push. Good luck

CHROMAHOLIC · 02-13-2010, 03:09 PM

thanks for the good luck wishes, I would of drove it in too.....but unfortunately it's not running yet!

Here's the initial builder of the truck before it was sold and shipped to Canada.

You are getting your trucks/owners mixed up...sickred has the grey one (which 72BlckButy was asing about), Chromoholic has the two-tone formerly owned by crawdadfax who started this thread.

For those who are asking about sickreds truck, there are several recent threads on his truck..no need to hijack Chrome's thread.

Cant wait to see the updates Chromoholic!!

79gmcc15 · 02-14-2010, 08:26 AM

glad to see it kept in the family!

nice rig! Can't wait to see final pics!

Good luck with your updates. Your taking an awesome truck and moving it up another notch.

With those huge new rotors, I think your going to need new wheels too....
