Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
Man I love this truck. You have done everything right in my opinion. I love the steel wheels, the lift, the green, and how you kept everything stock looking. I would have never considered making my C20 a K20 until I saw this build.
It looks like you went with 16x10 wheels? Keep up the great work. |

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
I sure like your pickup. Really glad you use it. They just go to waste and waste away if not.

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
Thx man. I've really been enjoying it. I've had trucks in the past that were parked all winter. I hated it...

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
Very nice build, can't believe I missed it... Same color as mine... I'm a bit stalled but just built a new shop so hopefully I'll get back at it this spring.

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
I agree on you doing all the right things on this truck. I really like the tough look and functional and substantial mirrors, tires, etc!
What material did you line the bed with?

Jud, i really recommend this stuff, $120 for this kit. Easy to use. Although, if doing a steel floor, i would purchase 2 kits for the desired coverage and thickness. Thx for the compliments guys ![]() ![]()

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
Got my period correct CARR steps on the other day. Made the wife happy. No more jerking on the door..
Everything going well, couple knick knack things to do. Had to tighten the power steer belt to eliminate a squeel. Motor had a leak, turned out to be the plastic gasket on the magnetic drain plug grrr. I put the original back in .. Dry as a bone. ![]() ![]()

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20

Re: From "C to K" Evolution of my K-20
yup, I'm now thinking of sticking with the stock green on mine... not sure on the mirrors on mine being a shortbed 1/2 ton and all..
