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.

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 ?
I may be wrong , but I was told the spoilers from later model trucks would work on ours , cant remember what year they started putting them on, maybe the 1980's .

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 ?
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"

Re: What's your trucks name ?
Here, let me get this thing back on track.
I call my truck the "Mall Crawler" See, what I do is drive around the mall with the radio turned up real loud(super cool). All the soccer moms chase my truck around the parking lot screaming like I'm a rock star! Not sure if it's the Mall Crawler shine or the loud radio, maybe combination of both! But it sure the heck ain't me.... hahaha |
