Re: something different 66 long travel truck

Cool, i had a 96 chevy stepside 2 wheel drive i put a 6 inch fabtech lift on with 33's yyyeeeeaarrrrssss ago. I guess the big tires and such killed my power and truck never seemed to drive right no matter what i did so i eventually lowered it again. When you get a set of tires on there i think it will make it look really good.

You should have changed the rear axle ratio, to 4:11 or such, the large diameter tires are like running a 1:98 rear axle ratio Kieth
