Re: What's your trucks name ?
And my 1 ton is "Vidalia" because the PO's repairs keep making me cry (see if anybody gets the country reference, lol).

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Mine is "Miss Represented"
Everything on it from purchase to finish was and will not be what was advertised when I went to buy or see it. Some times good sometimes bad.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Picture to come later, but my wife has named my truck POST for Piece Of S*** Truck. Poor old thing, I guess that means I need to start actually getting it fixed so we can give it another name.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
CST10...
I have to confess - there is a load of tile in the bed in that picture. BUT - it does have a 4" drop in front, 5" in rear. 2" spindle drop with shorter coils/shocks and rear is shorter coils/shocks all in a kit. Without tile in bed - there is more rake but it looks really nice. If you want the drop you see in picture - do a 5" front and 6" rear - but this may require some driveshaft angle modification(?) to achieve proper driveshaft angle to rearend. Do your research there - it is important! But, also consider going to single driveshaft and see if it buys you anything...I am planning to go to single drive shaft when I put a 5 or 6 speed manual in this truck. Thank you for asking. |

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Thank you, sir.
I meant to say that the name of this truck came easy because it was originally purchased at Steakley Chevrolet in Waco, Texas. It has been as close to Metroplex as Waco for over 40 years LOL. I bought this truck with a totally new drivetrain with a bone stock body/interior and paint for my son several years ago. Crate 350 with kitted Turbo 350 trans. Looking for deal on T500/T600 or even T56 trans to do this truck a nice upgrade... Thank you for the compliment.... |

Re: What's your trucks name ?
CST10 - not to hog the thread, but for you to see drop without weight in bed.
4" front / 5" rear |

Re: What's your trucks name ?
I like the 4/5 drop. Looks nice. Is that a chin spoiler you have under the bumper. Where did you get that from. Never seen one before on these trucks.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Yep. I was pretty old before i realized that song was a play on words with Vidalia Onions! It was actually playing when I was loading this one up on the trailer to bring it home.... i should have seen the signs!

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Slammit, I'm from the town of West, Just outside Waco. I can't tell you how many Steakley dealer bumpers, decals, emblems, etc.. Ive come across on these old trucks! Must have been a successful dealership for a long time in Waco.

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Have Hex stock spiked lug nuts-really sharp, spikes on both bumpers, spikes throughout the bay, and adding a spiked hood ornament soon as I get the engine back in. New tag just ordered will read "Spycho"
