yeah the truck has drop spindles and 3" springs up front and the rear just has a 6" flip kit. The wheels are 20x9" and 20x10" American racing Torque thrust II's with the grey centers. Yeah... torque thrusts... ever seen those wheels before. Haha

hmmm... this seems to be the only one I can find on my puter right now, I know I had some more...
Seriously, this is how I want my truck to look. I would love to have the factory grill back. The P/O changed it for a chrome on and I've always hated them. Love the trim too! And being a UT fan, that color is perfect.........

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Decided I would start a (square body club) group on Facebook. If any of you are on face book and would like to join up, I thought I'd let you know. There are a lot of people doing the face book thing these days and I thought it would be a good way of reaching and getting together more of us square body guys and gals..here is the link if any of you are interested.
