Went ahead and welded the back seams





I would think it should work and alot less pita than welding! This same thought crossed my mind but my bedsides were kinda beat up anyway and needed Q'rs put on.. Looking nice btw...

Re: 198Plus build

Found these wheels......... I really want these wheels for my truck. One problem though they don't make them 5 on 5 anymore, so after a week on the phone trying to get Cragar to make this wheel for me they finally may be able too......I should know within the next week.

Re: 198Plus build

Used tires are 215/60x15 front and 265/75x16 on the rear. I want to put the biggest size on the back I can get. I have lots of room with the 73 fenders. And I'll go a little bigger on the front when I get new tires.

Re: 198Plus build

Thanks......They are 15x7 235/60/15 front and 15x8 back 255/60/15. I'm probably going to put the 255's on the front rims and maybe some 275's or 315's on the back if they will clear.

I think 255/60 on the front will be to big if your going to slam it.
