the truck is nothing but a painted chassis right now but I will bolt one on and get you all a pic this weekend... I should have known not to post without a pic!!

72BlckButy · 01-26-2008, 10:32 PM

You got that right....

Can't wait to see a pic!

NONHOG · 01-27-2008, 05:49 AM

What if ??????? you were to cut the holes out to ovals ? Would that work ?
If so it would give more of a Vette ralley look , been thinking about doing that to my Scion . Also what if your were to put some huge rivots on the wheel face to pop on a dog dish cap ? Been thinking about doing that to my truck rallys . Been thinking too much gotta start doing !

c10addict · 01-27-2008, 06:20 AM

Once the truck is together if I decide that I want to run dog dishes I am going to just weld 3 tabs on the wheel face with a small nut tacked to the backside of them and attach the dog dish with a 3 small screws through the sides of the cap.. chances are you wouldnt even notice.

I have a set of 4 of the Dodge wheels, I have been trying to sell for $200, not many bites though.

jasonb72 · 01-27-2008, 12:15 PM

The tires are pretty much toast.

c10addict · 02-06-2008, 10:34 AM

Sorry I have been slow getting these on here! Here is my frame with the 20" steelies! Right now tires are 275/40/20...

gringoloco · 02-06-2008, 11:26 AM

snacob14 · 02-06-2008, 11:29 AM

Probably not.... I am doing this truck as a shop truck... I am going to paint it flat olive green with a gloss black roof,interior,grill and bumpers.. Kind of a military theme... I am thinking of cutting some 4 inch holes in the front and rear bumpers and putting mesh behind them... kinda tie it all together...

Spray-Bomb · 02-06-2008, 11:40 AM

Did you re-drill or use adapters ???

That looks sweet !!!

snacob14 · 02-07-2008, 12:46 AM

72 Cheyenne402 · 02-07-2008, 07:23 AM

nice project I would have never thought of using dodge steelies. very cool

chevelle · 02-07-2008, 11:09 AM

Where can i get some of those adapters?

1LoC10 · 02-07-2008, 11:17 AM

you need some of them 20" red lines on it

chevelle · 02-08-2008, 05:20 AM

Does anyone think they would fit and not rub (too bad) on a 67 longbed with a 4 1/2 - 6 inch drop

c10addict · 02-08-2008, 05:31 AM

I have not installed any sheetmetal yet to see where they sit but from my measurements they should work fine... I bought the adapters on e-bay..

**Palf70Step** · 02-08-2008, 08:20 AM

Hmmmm. Gives me ideas, especially since i have one of them there dodge things

icesickl · 02-08-2008, 09:02 AM

I use marsh racing wheels on my rock crawler. They will do up to a 22" in a 8" 9" 10" or 11" width in any bolt patern and with almost any offset. They are your more traditional D holes.
