215/75/15 frt 235/70 on the rear. I did have it on ebay for a day, but pulled it for a local buyer. The deal fell thru so I decided to keep it & enjoy it for a while. Oh the wheels are 7s on the frt & 8s on the rear.

Re: Trying to finish up a winter project

Sorry to keep bugging how did you notch your rear and did you modify your bed floor? I really like how it sits.

Its a CPP bolt in notch. I wish the truck sat lower. I still may play with the frt more, & cut a hole in the bed floor.

Re: Trying to finish up a winter project

Thanks I really enjoyed building it. It's long gone now. I really wanted to build that new teal one to look the same. But don't think I can tear it apart.

Seeing this post back up really makes me miss this tk. I should of hung onto it longer.
