new rims/tires and stance

just got done lowering the truck and putting the new shoes on her.
finally stopped raining so had a chance to snap a pic.

so happy with the new stance i had to share.



ohh ya, the rear is a bit lower than normal, cause its full of the old rims/tires/suspension parts and tools. but you get the idea

No more dragtruck for me. I'm building a new ride though. It's a '71 fleetside, 400 sbc, 700R4. Working on it now, finally. Soon to have Edelbrock Pro Flo EFI, Vintage Air, 1 piece windows, buddy buckets, etc.

My new build thread:

Best pass with the old dragtruck:

Best pass with the street 406 hydraulic roller motor w/ mild plate tuneup
5.93 @ 114 mph 1/8 mile w/ a 1.29 60' 2003 or 2004
