Re: Project: 3rd times a charm: 83 c10!
Well, got a little bit more done. Been waiting on wheels to show up so not much progress.
Built a drive shaft crossmember since I didn't really like the pb notch. And these showed up Friday.. Now get to mount them and see how much I need to narrow the diff. Gonna start on the accuair install this week hopefully! |

Very nice work. Truck is looking good. When you lay it out on those 22's, how far is the pinch weld off the ground?

Figured it was the 305/40 on the rear. They look good on the 12's.

Re: Project: 3rd times a charm: 83 c10!
Exactly. I asked intro to build some 11 inch wide rear wheels but they told me they didn't do them. I found that somewhat odd that a custom wheel manufacturer wouldn't build me a "custom" width.

Re: Project: 3rd times a charm: 83 c10!
Thanks man! Im really enjoying the way it's turning out. I'm still undecided on the color. Switching between a charcoal grey or the arrival blue that I painted the firewall. Hell it'll prolly change next week!!!

Re: Project: 3rd times a charm: 83 c10!
I knew you did the firewall in the blue. That's why I was curious. Wondered if that was going to be it or if you were on the fence.
