Well the 6" added about 3 inches as least to the height. I'm pretty sure I could clear some 38's now but I'm gonna go with 36's. Definantly looks different. No pictures yet. I will have them Monday evening. I will be gone all weekend trying to figure out how I'm going to get in it now.

***Josh*** · 06-08-2007, 10:45 PM

You might have to carry a step-stool around in the bed so you can get in

Mudder · 06-08-2007, 10:55 PM

I already carry one................

1969k10stepside · 06-08-2007, 10:59 PM

I forgot,it has a body lift too doesnt it? That means it sits way up there.BTW,did you ever decide on buying the 72 convert you posted about?

Mudder · 06-08-2007, 11:01 PM

Passed on it for the time being. Spending too much on this one at the moment. I believe the guy will have that for a while.

**special-K** · 06-09-2007, 08:32 AM

Mudder · 06-09-2007, 09:45 AM

My 69 K20 measures 33 1/4 - that's equates to quite a jump to get in for me so you must need a running start to get into yours

jaros44sr · 06-22-2007, 05:38 PM

How about a spring board, seems to work with the gymnists... Like YJ said a running start and close the pass. side door so you don't go all the way thru

abebummy26 · 07-03-2007, 12:19 PM

Hey Mudder did you see any 69 k10 silver and black trucks at Springfield, IL

I just kinda roll across the rock sliders on my ankle/shin area and pulling like h&ll on the roll cage to climb up and in while trying not to smack my head on the top tube of the cage.

Quite an event/challenge I gotta say.

Mudder · 07-03-2007, 12:46 PM

I did not make it to Springf but I do know of one that was there. You know em? The bottom of the door is 32 inches I believe on mine.

abebummy26 · 07-03-2007, 03:54 PM

Yeah I live about 3 miles from his brother that has the green 1979. I was out there on Sunday. I saw all three brothers. You should come to the show at the New Haven youth fair on the 14th. They run it so it would be good for you to come its at the Legion on 100. You think you will make it? I would really like to see your truck.
