Its been starting right up even with the cold weather. Just need some warm weather to service the tranny and get all the lights working and bolt the bed down then she will be ready for some miles to be put on her again...

What size tires do you have front & rear also what is the set back on the rears? I am trying to figure a good tire / wheel combo for mine.

bmfpeterson · 02-25-2011, 06:50 PM

very nice bob!

what is the rear tire size? surly they are wider than 12"??????? they look perfect! are they mickey Thompson street radials?

bobshotrodblazer · 02-25-2011, 10:41 PM

29/18's Mickey Thompson street radials. Just put on new weld drag lites. The old weld wheels were bent.

bmfpeterson · 02-25-2011, 10:49 PM

What rear suspension are you running? I am hoping to run my trailing arms and bags with at least a 15" wide tire, I cut my bed to the frame trying to get as wide as possible......... thankks for the input!

Stock 12 bolt rear , tubbed the fenders ..you have to pull the ebrake cable out of the way and put in a adjustable stablizer bar to keep the bed centered around those big meats. this is another truck I built

Sweet truck! Must be something nice under that hood to have sneakers like that!

rizdif · 02-26-2011, 04:11 PM

Hey bobshotrodblazer,

Where did you get that diamond-plate material for the bed on that beauty? Was it "kit" form or just custom-cut/applied? It looks so much sweeter than the stock bed replacement I've been thinking about.

I was fortunate enough to have a sheet metal shop in the same warehouse as my project . I measured and made patterns and he broke the diamond plate.

Couple of pics I took today.

I like the bed dress up you just gave me an idea for mine I have a friend that owns a metal fab co. he will get me the sheets for cost and just charge for cutting.
