I got the rear hubcaps on ebay and the front ones with the hole from classic chevy truck, i think that is the name, cant remember now. but they are not hard to find and i think that look is sweet. beats an aftermarket wheel IMO....

Good looking truck you found there!

I have a 79GMC swb (pictured below) that I've lowered... The rear end has been flipped (approx. 5" drop) along with dropped spindles and 1 full coil cut from the front springs (approx. 4" drop). It's running 8" rallys in front and 10" out back. Hopefully that'll give you some reference as to how much drop your looking for.

Thanks! and yes, I remember that truck! I never saw it in person but saw many pics of it and Yezzi helped me out with some of the stance details that I applied to my own truck. Great find... I love that orange / white combo!
