Lifted K/10. Car Wash Ok? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Here's a good one. I wanna get my 84 K/10 washed off since our roads in NJ are saltier than the food we serve the public. I have 33" mud tires on it and a 4" lift, will it fit in the tracks for an automated car wash and not get stuck? The salt is heavy and I can pretty much hear my truck rotting outside right now......

I would ask the car wash attendant what height limits they have.

Honestly... Find a place with a drive in and a wand and you'll clean the underside of that truck so much better.

I'm more worried about language limits going that route......

That's not a bad idea, I hadn't even considered that option. I think there's one nearby I can hit up.

most of them recycle the water, so you'll be giving it a salt bath.
That said, I go thru the drivethru one here, with 4" lift and 35's on my truck, but my wheels don't really stick out, so you might have to measure first. mine barely fits width wise.
