Big and tall as you can get that fits. Then slam it.

Alan's Classic · 09-11-2009, 09:36 PM

I like the wheels.

Strodder · 09-11-2009, 09:40 PM

These are 265/70X16 It fills the fender really good with a 8" rim. I want to go bigger.

198plus · 09-11-2009, 10:24 PM

Thanks Alan.... I really didn't have the money but they where a steal !!!!!

235/60x16 are 27.1" tall and 9.25 tread width

255/70x16 are 30.05" tall and 10.03 tread width

265/70x16 are 30.5" tall and 10.43 tread width.

Both will be about 3" taller, and 3/4 to 1 1/4" wider

198plus · 09-11-2009, 09:24 PM

They are 235-R60/16

I have some 15" cragers. They have the 3 point spinner. Need to be blasted and re diped or painted. I have no use for them but they are for a s10. I think 5x4.5 is that correct.

No 5X4.75. F**d is 5X4.5 Unless it's a Uni Lug

ruffrida2005 · 09-12-2009, 10:10 PM

I think it's a uni lug, it's got little washers that go in so I believe you can change the lug patter if you have the correct ones.

Are the holes oblong?

ruffrida2005 · 09-12-2009, 10:39 PM

ruffrida2005 · 09-12-2009, 10:49 PM

I just dont have all the inserts for them. I bought a s10 and they only had like 2-3 on each wheel

Strodder · 09-12-2009, 11:03 PM

Try PEP Boys. They might have them.

ruffrida2005 · 09-12-2009, 11:02 PM

sorry for thread jacking 198. what rims are they the S/S or the 610? and how much did you spend for them if you dont mind. I need to sell mine. I have no use for them. The chrome is chipping off so they need to be blasted.

198plus · 09-12-2009, 11:41 PM

No problem........

198plus · 09-13-2009, 09:56 PM

Went out tonight and changed my 6 lug rearend to my new 5 lug 3.07....God it's so much fun doing this by yourself and trying not to scratch it.

Guess I'll start the 5 lug swap next.......Looking real forward to getting the ball joint rivets out.

Roadhammer · 09-14-2009, 02:44 PM

I dont get anywork done when threads like these are up on the board. GOSH!

Locking in to watch Alan work.....

198plus · 09-20-2009, 09:08 PM

Went out this evening and started my cheap disc brake swap using 1987 spindles...... Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be getting the rivets out of the top ball joints....... The hard parts over with now it's all tore apart and ready for re-assembly.....Pics coming soon.

ruffrida2005 · 09-21-2009, 12:34 AM

cant wait to see the finish project. Is Alan working on anything right now?

198plus · 09-21-2009, 01:17 AM

I talked to him Saturday, he's just chilling out a little right now....Soon as my doors get finished he should be back working on my truck and finishing it up.

from 81-up there are 2 different spindles...one is for 1 inch rotors, and the other is for 1 1/4 inch rotors. the bearings don't inter-change

198plus · 09-25-2009, 12:28 AM

Thanks.........But the backing plate shouldn't be rubbing on the end of the lower control arm, that's why I think these are the wrong spindles...Maybe they are 1988 and up ??????????????

Do you have a pic or two?

Pics sometimes help to figure out what is what.
