Re: All stepside trucks!
I think it's 5.25 in front and 4.75 in back and I misspoke, I think the wheels are 8.5. Coys had some limited selection and I went with what was available and close to what I wanted.

Dads GMC its gonna be gone through new paint, engine, wood and wheels. hopefully I can talk him into dropping it a little more ![]() ![]() The one Ill never sell This one is getting the works.. I finally decided to do it the way I always wanted to. its getting porterbuilt suspension, new paint, wheels, new interior ![]() ![]() Finally the one that I'm focusing on now is the Shop Truck, patinia truck since I'm changing so much on the silver truck I decided not to put all the parts on a shelf and decided to just build another truck lol. it in a million pieces currently but the plan is to put use the silver trucks suspension, build a 350 that rattles house windows, have the interior and engine bay look like a new one with the rest of the truck basically like it is. here is pic of it when I bought it and a bad photoshop of what I had in mind. ![]() ![]()

Re: All stepside trucks!
If it turns out this is he exact look you are going for, send me a note and I will get out to the shop and measure it all out. I just don't have it all in my head to be certain.

Re: All stepside trucks!
Here's my old girl. I recently replaced the GMPP 350/290 with a Skip White 383 motor. Wow, she's a lot more fun now.

The truck has a 2" coil drop from ECE with a 2.5" drop spindles up front with a 6" ECE drop in the year. The tires are just some very old Radial T/As, 255/60/15 on '80s chevy rally rims, 15x8??. I REALLY want to put some 18" Coys on her with some very sticky rubber. I just gotta figure out how much meat I can place under her. I can't wait until it warms up, on my commute to work it was -15 below!

Re: All stepside trucks!
Thank you!

Unsure on actual drop. I know it's got McGaughy drop spindles, rear drop springs and 2" drop blocks. The front stock springs have been cut which yields a harsh ride and almost undriveable since the front fenders sit below the top of the tire. I have air ride sitting in the bed awaiting install. Wheels are 18x8 and 18x9.5 Riddlers. BS I believe are 4.5 front and 5.5 rear.

Re: All stepside trucks!
Thanks. I'd like to claim I built it but truth is after 2 years of searching for a suitable truck to build and looking at dozens of rotted out trucks, I stumbled across this one which was 90% finished when I bought it. I would have spent more on the drivetrain alone (nearly everything is new) than I paid the guy for this entire truck.

Re: All stepside trucks!
Here is my 67 small window. I am not so patiently for new wheels and tires! Plasti dipped them to give them a fresh look.
