Re: Owen's C10

made a patch for the gaping hole I had cut in the firewall for the porterbuilt hinges, tacked it in and ground down the welds...I have a little more to do but almost ready for some filler.

Re: Owen's C10

wow, when you said you were going with the Detroit Steel Wheels I was expecting the typical 8" front/ 9" rear combo, not those 14" monsters! That is going to look insane. Get those on already!

Re: Owen's C10

Looks like it's time to narrow the rear axles. Talk about filling the space between frame rail and fender! That's going to look awesome!

Re: Owen's C10

good thing your going with a Watts Link to keep the rear centered, the tires are going to be tight on the frame rails
