How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part I

**Palf70Step** · 09-28-2014, 01:44 PM

I was wondering when we would break the back!

Can't go wrong with any Chevy short box, always cool.

streetrodchev · 09-28-2014, 08:57 PM

I don't have pictures of my '83 or '86 short box.

dfrank · 09-28-2014, 09:10 PM

Here is my 86 k10. Believe it or not this winter it is getting torn down for a full frame off restoration.

What are you running for tire sizes, 255-60/275-60? I love the stance.

Post #7, RShook's 1977 SWB....Awesome!!!

This truck is in my TOP 5 of 73-80 SWBs - Classic - My favorites of course are Yezzi's (all of them) and Boatpuller's truck.

275 60R15 all around.
I have to really be careful not to scrub the fronts but that's the price we pay with lowered trucks, I suppose. I think the best way would be 255 front and 275 or 295 on the rear.
I'm running stock 8" rallies with 1.25 spacers on the rear.

Thanks Dads!
That's quite a compliment
