Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI

Glad you found the source of the FI issue. That was not an EZ one to diagnose I'm sure ...

As for the tranny ... minor details. I'm sure that'll be out & back in before you can say ... Cecil.

Truck looks fantastic. The build was well thought out & the execution was ... stunning. Drive the wheels off it.

Awesome Shawn! Bart is coming tomorrow afternoon to do some pressure testing, and take it back to his shop for a trans if need be.

Re: Cecil the 1953 5 window / S-10 / 5.7 TPI

Shawn/Chris Beautiful truck. I also think you guys nailed the stance, can you tell me what backspacing the rims have? I either missed it or cannot find it in your posts.

Thanks
Tom

Thank you Tom. Sorry I didn't post the info sooner. Here's the specs on the wheels.

The fronts are ridler 695 18x8, 5x4.75 +0 4.5"

The Rears are ridler 695 20x10, 5x4.75 +0 5.5"

Hope this helps. If you going to run the tires that I am it will be challenging as Chris has alluded. He made some crazy mods to his cab brackets not to mention drop leafs and spindles just to get the stance right. Also there will be some rub up front if you crank the wheel for super sharp turn. This is something I am willing to live with for now just to get the look.
