Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Can you do the hub cap mod for me? I want to do this on my truck, but im still debating on wheel size. 20/22, or 22's all around
Looks Fantastic!!!! ![]() Did you buy your wheels direct from centerline? I'm looking for who has the best prices on the smoothies. |

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Ed, ya I can mod the caps for ya. I'll get a pic up for you to see what I did.
The 22s clear no prob with the Poterbuilt stuff. If you do have an issue with clearance CCp makes a spindle that sit in 1 inch. Frame is going satin black and front and rear arms are going to be a dark metallic grey. Should look good with a bit of contrast. |

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Normally I am not a big fan of plus sized wheels, but those Centerlines with your custom center cap look great. Good progress so far. Looking forward to seeing it complete.

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
Powdercoating looks awsome! Whats is the back spacing of your centerline wheels? Are they the same back spacing front an rear?
In the first picture with your bed on the ground the tire is almost touching the lip of the bed? In the second picture it looks like theres like 2 to 3inches between the tire and the bed lip? Do you Know how close it actually is in the second pic? The reason i'm wondering is my truck will be body dropped 3/4 of an inch and I was wondering if the tire would hit that lip? I want to put 24's on the rear of mine and dont know if they will fit with the body drop? Hope that made sense? Thanks! Tony from Norcal |

Re: My 65 Pickemup project
In the first pic obviously the box is just sitting on the ground so it tends to be a bit lower than it normally would be even with body drop. Having said that you will come very close to touching the lip with 24s depending on tire size. You can see in the 2nd pic that the box can come down another 3/4 of an inch but I can't pull that off unless I cut down my body mounts a bit, which I might do.
And the front does not touch the firewall. |
