Re: Project: Second time around...

I have been working on another truck here and there. I'll be needing a shop truck for work. I've done disc brakes up front, lowered it 4.5/7 on 15x8s and 15x10s with 245/60s and 295/50s.

Re: Project: Second time around...

I have a longbed and it is so hard to get the stance just right on a longbed.a short bed is easy, but so many of those setups make the long beds look awkward and longer than they are. You nailed it though.

Jason this truck isn't as clean in person. It's solid as can be though, least amount of rust I've seen on one of these.

Re: Project: Second time around...

I'll let you all know and see why this truck has stalled out. This is what I've been messing with for the past year and half or more. Started working in here on the side about 3 months ago and I'll open full time May 20th!
