I used 6" superlift springs, front and rear with a 2" add-a-leaf in the rear. I'm running 35x12.50x15 BFG mud t/a's with custom built 15x10 corvette ralleys. Thanx again guys for all the compliments.

That's an amazing truck!!

Mine shares the same brand name and the same color scheme... but that's about it!

**BAD4X4** · 07-22-2009, 03:12 AM

Great year of truck!

Really like your color. When I was 16 or so years old... I hated green on cars and trucks. But it's sort of funny cause my 70 is factory tuo tone Green and I'm keeping the truck with these factory colors...because In my old age I now like these colors. It took you 5 years for your build so now I don't feel so bad as I'm going on 18 months. As said by all others...very nice truck!!

Man, seeing this truck really makes me proud that I am building a shortwide 4x4, I hope mine looks half as good as that when I am done!

One of the nicest trucks I have ever seen!!!! Mine was that color originally...may have to go back to it soon..

that is just awesome!!!!!

Looks great. I have that color green and your kind of seals the deal to restore it to original.

I like the painted shroud. Did you do anything to the paint like add a plastizer? Has it chipped any?

**BAD4X4** · 07-23-2009, 04:49 PM

Thanx everyone for the great comments. I LOVE MY TRUCK!!! I did the photo computer deal from the paint shop under the grille to get the original color. I never drive it. She is a trailer queen. It's been done for 2 years and only has 62 miles on it. My wife and I are very proud to say we own her and built it ourself's. Thanx again.
