Re: Newbie with pics of my truck

GRUMPYONE, welcome to the board! That's a decent project you got there. I like those wheels. I'm actually considering those for my truck as well. My dad is looking at the polished or chrome ones for his 56 BelAire.

As for lowering, you also need to decide what your gonna do with the truck. Is it just gonna be for show? Daily driver? Are you gonna haul stuff in it? These are factors that will also help in your decision. Your budget will make the decision as well.

I did a 3.5/5 on my 68. I would feel perfectly comfortable hauling moderate loads in it if I were to still haul anything other than folding chairs and a cooler. I know others have been lowered more and still haul plenty of stuff. My ride quality hasn't suffered any either. I used all ECE products and I will say I've never had better service than with the ECE guys.

Here's a few shots of mine.
