hey patj nice truck is it notched?

nice looking truck. how hard was it to get the matt finish paint to lay flat? alot of times the looks streakey.

PatJ · 07-19-2012, 08:15 AM

Yep It has the PB bolt in notch.

The truck was rattlecan flat black when I bought it and it is very streaky.
Some parts look ok but I should really paint over it and Im sure I can make it look better than the PO did.

I'm doing mine in flat blue and it covers very well, if it's streaky your not overlapping enough. It is hard to get a uniform finish if your painting bits and pieces like I am doing, each coat changes the level of "flatness".

1enick72 · 07-20-2012, 11:29 PM

Hey Clow, your truck is one of the few from this forum I've seen in person. Looking good.

forestb · 07-25-2012, 04:33 PM

5/5 drop with 275/55R17 in the rear and 275/50R17 up front

1enick72 · 07-26-2012, 02:33 PM

^^^^^^^I likey^^^^^^^^

waspp · 07-26-2012, 03:38 PM

Great look! Do you know the details on the rims? width offset?

forestb · 07-26-2012, 06:13 PM

They are 17X8, 4.5 inch back spacing. now that I think about it it might be a 4.5/5 drop.

I think they are the 68 series style 16"-18" rally but I will have to check my shipping order when I get home.

Thats the style rim I was looking for as well, a 17" steel wheel and I was trying to use stock caps but that may not work. What are the tire sizes?

steve'62 · 08-02-2012, 10:02 PM

here's mine, just finished the drop last weekend, debating on going with some bigger wheels

275/55R17 in the rear and 275/50R17 up front. I don't think the stock caps will work with them. They may have a 17" rim that will work with stock caps. They have a web sight that you can order from but it is hard to find.
