There is a lot of nice trucks here. Makes me want to convert my Longhorn into a 4x4.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
Here's my truck, got it with 81,000 origional miles back about 1992 from my stepdad. I was lucky enough to be able to drive the thing a bit during H.S. and after. Running boards will go when i do the rocker replacement...
Thinking about it, my emblems say C-20 or Custom-20, still don't know what the difference is, but i'm not too concerned ether LOL!.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
Yes, its called a "cake feeder". Cake is ground up feed ( alfalfa, corn, sunflower byproduct, cotton seed byproduct, etc) that is compressed into 3 to 5 inch 7/8 cubes. I feed about 10,000 lbs of it a week. I drive the yellow truck alot!

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
I am loving that red 68! I spy 30 emblems on it? And it looks like it might have 454 emblems as well?

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
^^ I have no idea ^^
It's a big boy done right. Looks like it has late model drivetrain. I spy a Dana 14-bolt. Probably has a Dana60. My '72 will get this treatment,but with HO52/No Spin and 12.50/37 Swampers on 8.25 steelies w/caps. Who knows what color. Not red,most likely medium Gold Metallic. You never know until you order the paint.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
I have 6" springs. I am hoping with the tires being 12.50s on 8.25" wheels and not doing any radical wheelin' that will work. If they rub I'll see about zero-rates up front which I hope will do the trick. Another route may be a trip to my favorite spring shop and see what they can do. Honestly,I don't want it any higher than the 6" and hope that'll do.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
I too really enjoy the 3/4 ton 4x4s. Don't have one right now, but would love to find a long stepside. Here are a few I've owned in the past... I'll start with the nicer ones. I've seen the copper and white GMC on here in the past, somebody saved the picture from my Ebay auction when I sold it. The orange project truck had a Cummins, NV5600, NP205, Dana 60/70 - I never finished it, and parted it out.
