Great Looking Truck. You did a great Job.
Do you mind me asking what the color is? I really like that blue that you used.

I think they are 31/8.5/15. I think I will keep the rallies and just get bigger tires.

I'm running 31x10.50's on my 2wd truck now. You should be able to put some 32's under there no problem. Might even get away with something a little bigger if you want. Just be sure to check lock to lock turning to make sure nothing rubs. My fender wells needed some massaging with the BFH.

Re: Its Done!!!
Nice job man....nice to see them built for use....you can run 33X12.5 on those rally's without a lift....been running them on my stock K/10 for as long as I have had it with no issues....they would fill in nice with 2" lift also....check out the pics in the 4X4 section you will see plenty of guys running that size tire....

Re: Its Done!!!
I like the truck a lot! I did the same with my truck. Drive it....tear something up and work on it... drive it some more,etc. Just one complaint: I think you're being a little stingy with the pics sir!

Great looking truck! I'm going dark blue when I get there!

I have saved these two pictures cause they were both 2 1/2" lift with 33's (what I'm going to do). Can't remember who the black one belonged to, but the silver white one is Bram's.

Did I say your truck looks great.

So it looks like if I go with 32" and 2 1/2" lift it might be to much and the tires will look to small. The black truck looks good, any smaller tire and it would like it is lifted to high. And thanks for the compliment on my truck..

Re: Its Done!!!
Really love that color and the near stock look. I have the same tire and lift plans for my 71. I hope you post more pics when you've done it. What are you planning on using to get the 2" lift?

I am going to put the 32/ 11.5/ 15 tires on that I just ordered. Then I will have the front leaf springs rearched to get 1 1/2" to 2" of lift and just add blocks to the rear. Not sure how high until I get tires on. And I will post the pics when done some thime in early November. .
