thanks brother the wheels are 9.5 inches wide but i know you can get them wider or even thiner but on 22s the thinest you may be able to get them is 9 inches, coys are really nice man, and ill take a bunch of pics of the bed......

[menace121978]

[luifer76]

allright today i didn't do much after a bunch of measurements i got the tubing frame to raise the bed all welded in place and than i threw a coat of paint on the whole frame and i started to plan where i was gonna mount the air tanks,valves and compressors...

[TruAggression]

NICE!!! I knew you would make progress lol complaining about the rain you still did stuff haha!!! Well first where are you running the fuel tank at??? And what compressors were you running??? You could mount em under the cab??? on the frame rails or where the old saddle tank was???

The new Street Trucks mag has a write up on the new No Limit fuel cell its completly bolt in with new crossmembers with it and priced pretty fairly I think and it still allows you to lay out too

[TruAggression]

I like the ones you got today they look more classic I guess you can say.... Look like Coys too

Cool ill check it out,... one of my buddys told me last week that he had what it seems to be a 12 gallon tank that came out of another small truck and its in great conditions and based on the measurements that he gave me over the phone the tank would tuck right under the cab and not hang lower the rockers im gonna go see the tank some time this week and the best of all he only wants 20 bucks.....

[luifer76]

while i decided where i was gonna mount the tanks and compressors i stopped by my buddys house and just like he said he had something i was gonna be interested on and it was such a great deal i could not pass on brand new 22 inch wheels with brand new tires, he has wheel and tire shop here in town and he had order this wheels for a guy who never turn out with the money and even tho i have a set of 22's on the truck i had to get this ones here are some pics of what i currently have and i got today let me know what you guys think looks better.....

[TruAggression]

They're both nice!!! Whichever ones you dont use let me know I need some wheels haha!!!

[luifer76]

here are some pics i took today with the wheels on the truck.....
