Re: the 72 K10 with no name (yet) thread
Here's a tip.. don't sell your wheels until your replacements are ready. Lol

Still haven't drove the truck, now it runs and is ready to drive but is on Jackstands for a while. Gotta have my steel wheels blasted and painted.

I'm gonna drive this thing one day!!!

Congrats on getting it running! I got an old beater K20 running a few weeks ago for the first time in years. Now it just needs an entire new body.

I love what you're doing. These 4x4s need to be in the mountains.

Are you changing to 5 lug axles? Those new steelies are 5 lug and K10s are 6 lug.

Yes sir. Facebook Marketplace. Guy bought them for a jeep and put 200 miles on them and saved me about 3-500 bucks.

Re: the 72 K10 with no name (yet) thread
I love this build! I'm following along. I have a question for you about your wheels. Do you know what they were off of? Also, I would really like to know what the backspacing is on them, and how close they come to hitting the tie rods. Anyways, nice truck. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the build.

They are factory gm steel wheels. Not sure on back spacing.. they are getting harder and harder to find.

Re: the 72 K10 with no name (yet) thread
Got my wheels and tires put on today... unfortunately I left my front caps at home so you don't get a pic until I get them on...

You'll have to settle for this teaser..

I love how it turned out.
