Re: Random Pics.

Nothing really I just had a bare frame, I figured it would look alot better if it was a complete truck. So I slapped my $200.00 cab and my $40.00 dollar shortbed box, and my free '69 front clip. Just so it doesn't look like a junkyard truck in our shop.

Re: Random Pics.

Tires on the 3/4 ton are 295/75R-16 Toyo M55 I believe? I know dad doesn't like the look of them on there. But I say they look bada$$!

Re: Random Pics.

I am always jealous of the Ca. sheetmetal available on the west coast. Good thing I don't live there I would have 50 projects going on. Nice photos.

Re: Random Pics.

Can you post up a good side view of your swb Sierra Grande? I love the 17" Ansens!!!! I was sooooo close to buying those at one time, now I kick myself.

by the way, all nice, nice rigs.

Re: Random Pics.

Do you happen to know if the tires rub on the 3/4? And is that the stock height? Thanks

Re: Random Pics.

Custom72C20- That is stock height and the tires rub very little on the driver's side if I recall right. We intend to replace the springs with new ones to eliminate the sagg to that side. Plus the tires are a little worn also, that's why my dad wants to step down to a 285/75R-16 size. I personally think it looks tough with the current set-up!

Re: Random Pics.

powell72-first of all congrats on getting your trucks featured in the magazine! The wheels were purchased originally for my '69 swb last year around spring time, I then swapped them over to the gmc.
