Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

Try for some 9.00R16(36) or 11.00R16(38) Michelin's. Check Pirate4x4 for them, they are hard to find sometimes, but there are usually a few set's for sale. You can also try 345/75R16(36.5") or 365/75R16(37.5") M/T's. The michelins will be your cheapest choice, at less than $300 a tire. Do your research and make an informed decision.

I've searched for months and I've had no luck at finding any Michelin 11r16

Also, give Hundy a call - http://www.100dollarman.com/

He is the man when it comes to Mil tires.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

hey guys, i have been lurkin around here for a while, and finally got a crew cab a few weeks ago. I have been staring at most of the trucks on here, gettin all kinds of ideas of what to do to mine. I have some ideas, but any input is more than welcome.

It is a 1984 C30 454/TH400 If there is anyone close to me with parts available for sale, please let me know, lookin for some wheels so i can get rid of the simulaters, as well as some interior pieces. I have made some progress on it since i got it, and i have more pics here: http://s1217.photobucket.com/albums/...New%20Project/

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

Ken ... that is why I bought my crew out of southern cally away from the water. No rust & the slimest margin of repairwork.

What are your plans for the crew??

I also have some spare pw style factory door panels if you needing them?? It'll cost you lunch for them!!

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

a mild drop, probably a 3/4, after i get the bodywork done, im going to start on making a bed cover, change the interior color from tan to black, two tone black on top, electric blue on bottom, and i am trying to find a set of wheels so i can get rid of my steelies and simulators, also try to get either a 5 speed, or an overdrive to put in it, change my rear gear ratio..

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

I think the best overall trans change would be to a 4L80. I just had one installed in my boss's SS454 truck by Neal Transmissions in Snellville. That thing rocks now. He blew through a Monster Transmission built 700R4.

Good luck.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

About $3500.00 cash.

They are the same trans that are in the H1 hummer & the HD gm trucks. But they will take a beating.

Call Keith over at Neal Racing Trans & ask him. Tell him I sent you that way (No I don't work for him but he does stand behind wahat he builds & he's local).

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

ill give him a shout, ive got to be up in that area on tuesday, but to be honest, im cheap, and i usually dont keep vehicles longer then about a year, i love the crew cab, but if someone offers an interesting trade, it can go too. not sure if it would be worth that much of an investment, i will definitely talk it over with him though, thanks for the info
