Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
ahhhhh yes, very good idear! i like other peoples opinions, gives me good ideas! i have yet to do ALOT to it, about to put in an LS1 motor and bigger tranny in that, my 8MPG will turn into 20MPG! and all things said, its an LS1 so i dont have to say how much more power ill get , going to link it up for the desert, which pretty much means gunna get rid of the leafs and use all nice shocks, gunna be able to go over a curb at 90 and not feel it! hahaa, probably gunna get rid of the current light rack and make a roof bucket rack that spans the whole truck with a light rack welded on or something like that, havent really made the plans yet, also def gunna give my baby a new paintjob! so stoked cant wait to do all these things!

I had a guy the other day say,"That's a military one,right?" I said,"No,it's better". This one has carpet & sound deadening,not a bare metal floor. It has A/C,AM/FM/Cassette stereo*,console,tilt wheel*,intermittent wipers*,gauges,O/D,and even power windows. Even better,now it has 12.50/35 mud tires that work great on the road (Goodyear MT/Rs),3/4t axles,rear locker,and 4.10 gears. It's a base model with a few options. It was ordered by a county parks dept. For some reason they didn't take it and a local farmer bought it and that's who I got it from. *Ok,I added these things.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
Nice score, looks like a good truck for what they wanted, maybe even cheaper for you.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
Tires are never cheap, only the ones you don't want. I ordered new MT Classic II rims 12" wide and 35-14.50-15" Pitbull Rockers for my 71 Gm 4x4 and the rims are cheap @ $160 apiece but the tires are about $400 apiece so with new locking nut the complete the pkg I am at $2,800 and something, I am happy, it is what I want but the wife, well not quite as happy, said you owned this truck twice now, you better keep it this time, of course I said ya, I will. Gotta get what you like then your happy when you look at it. I will give you a pic of tire, just for fun.
Here is rim too, should be nice with the width. |

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
I dig that chrome step bumper. If you ever decide to sell... The only thing I'd like better is a chrome factory '72 step bumper. Everyone says white spokes suck,and I was about the first to decide many years ago. Then it was Outlaws,then it was...Yeah,we get tired of looking at the same wheel all over the place. But white spokes are not that common,are period correct for your truck,and a the other period wide wheels are 16.5 and kinda hard to find. When I put the 6" lift on the Highlander I owned I chose white spokes. They were the cheapest wheels which allowed more for better tires,and the truck was all original/unrestored so I wanted it to look like it had always been that way when I was done. What's the point of putting expensive flashy wheels on a truck with 40 year old paint,small dents,and dull dinged up trim? I think they made it look better than most any other wheel out there. They nailed the look I was after:

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
Yeah,even rusty and greasy white spokes look better than any of that crap if you ask me...especially on a 4wd. Putting those wheels on a 4wd is like putting a high horsepower engine in,then using 1" exhaust.
