Re: Introduction

Welcome from New Hampshire. That is one really good looking lil stepper you got there. I really like how it looks in the older pictures. Just right in my book. Yeah the snow can be a killer on paint..... can't wait to see more pictures and what you end up doing to it.

Re: Introduction

The truck is in storage at the moment, spring can't come soon enough. I've attached the only other pictures that I have of the rear. I can take more once this darn snow is gone.

The only real damage to the truck over the past ten years is the sun. The paint took some pretty good abuse from sitting outside. There are a couple of small rust spots on the lowers also. But they are all minor surface rust. So I have some minor body work ahead of me. Then probably a complete re-spray. I'll probably stick with the blue again.

Looking for some opinions on th exhaust. It was just redone this past summer.....duals out the rear. Has anyone put duals out the side on a stepside. Maybe right by the step? Any pictures would help.

Thumbs up Re: Introduction

Welcome aboard thats a good lookin' truck, It's too bad the paint got ruined like that.

Any plans to update to newer wheels with the tires? I assume the wheels probably don't look as good as they did 10 years ago.

Re: Introduction

The old steel wheels took a good beating from the snow also....not sure what I'm going to do there yet.

The rims that were on it looked pretty good with the amount of chrome already on the truck. So I might stick with something simple again. The also don't break the bank. Plus going back to the 275's in the rear will beef up the rear end again. But I'm open to any suggestions.
