How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs - Page 173 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-28-2012, 04:04 PM

That looks awesome!

Mattman2010 · 06-28-2012, 04:07 PM

That is cool! Looks like the T-case shifter might be a pain to get to tho.

*mrhino* · 06-28-2012, 05:01 PM

Thought the truck had 4 pedals at first, but it must be a reflection? I put newer seats in my crew as well and if you dont lower the floor the seats sit just a little to high. but that truck is sick non the less

It's not as bad as you would think, can easily reach it from the drivers seat.

It might just be the angle that the picture is taken from

This what I've always wanted to build, minus the fact that it's the newer body lines. I prefer the look of the pre-'81 body. And I wish it was two tone. But it's a project. I couldn't build the truck for what I payed for it. Gonna tweak it and finish it the way I like.

Truck looks like a work horse! Is there any lift on it or is it all stock? What size wheels and tires? Looks good man!

Thanks, it's actually still stock suspension, 3 leafs in front and 9 in back. I suspect it has an add-a-leaf. I'm not sure how many leafs came in the stock rear spring packs. The rims are the stock 16" wheels with old-school 7.5"x31" mud/snow tires. Better tires are next on my list. I've seen some great info. on this site and am taking recommendations for what size, brand and load range others suggest. (350/400/4:10s)

JPalmer81 · 07-02-2012, 03:15 AM

I purchased a 4" lift for mine and am going to run 285/70's most of the time on some 16x8 white spokes. I will be getting some 33x12.50 swampers for it to where occasionally as well. There are guys running the 285's with no lift though.

bashed · 07-11-2012, 06:17 PM

I picked this one up a couple weeks ago, not quite sure what I'm going to do with it yet.
