So as it is in the picture that's a stock rear-end without any modifications?

What's a 1inch block? Also what does it looks like and where do you get it from

Here is a post I did when I had issues installing mine. It will raise the rear axle so the back end sits lower.

Very nice looking truck, 22's look sweet.

I'm curious if you have any rubbing issues while driving/steering?

big_al_71 · 06-03-2014, 08:35 PM

before i ordered them i tried my buddys on didnt have any problems and he has a 5.25 bs i went with 5.5 to be on the safe side. gonna try to lower a little more in the front and see what happens.

big_al_71 · 06-04-2014, 09:26 AM

As you
Know my truck is bagged and my inner
Fenders are in there and the truck is not
Cut

the rear is flush with a 4.5 backspace but its not in line with the front wheels either right now, plus i plan to lower it more and that cant be done the way it sits now.

TXPinstriper · 06-15-2014, 12:16 PM

Nice work bro looking good.....

Ekliptix · 07-07-2014, 04:09 PM

Looks great man, one of the nicest around.

j carter · 07-18-2014, 08:06 PM

Have you had your truck at any shows lately?

original-71 · 09-16-2014, 12:26 PM

decided the 22's were not for me on my truck so i sold them. first didnt drive the same IMO. second was not happy with the lip up front, and third i couldnt bring myself to cut her up with the c-notch and rear end, maybe if i were to build one it would be different but was a very hard decision for me in the end. went back to 20's same wheel Intro Ralley did a 20 X 8.5 with a 5" backspace up front and 20 X 10 with a 5.25" in rear sits pretty flush dont plan on bags anymore either just want to drive and enjoy it. luckly i didnt loose any money on the deal either just alot of time away from driving it, so i got bored and picked up a new daily driver in the mean time. this is the most recent picture i have of it.

Ekliptix · 09-16-2014, 12:29 PM

Looks great on 20's, better then 22's IMO. What's your new DD?

67ctener · 09-16-2014, 12:29 PM

IMO opinion 20s look more proportioned on these trucks. It's a style everyone likes and not over the top. Still one of my favorite trucks and one of my favorite wheels. Looks awesome as always
