It looks like the original owner had different tires and wheels. My guess is someone redid it at one point and changed tires/wheels and added the air suspension. Regardless it is a very well done truck.... ![]() ![]()

Re: The definition of clean
Really clean truck. I would have done the interior different with a little more work done on the seat and gauges.

That one is nice . I like the way he mounted the front sway bar since the truck is lowered . Frank

Re: The definition of clean
meh... i give props for the amount of work but its not my cup of tea.... to me those rear tires are hideously too big... its like the truck can't decide if its a straightliner or a show truck or a handling truck??? All that weight-adding air compressor stuff, but its a drag truck? Or is it a street truck?
Sorry for being a nay-sayer, but if its a thread for opinions, i guess i have the right for my .02. It's a clean truck, so yeah, that's cool, its just a little confusing to me. Then again, if I'm the minority then I guess i'm the confused one. ![]()

Re: The definition of clean
Wow! that is a sweet truck. I like how they left the body mods to a minimum. Im not a directional wheel fan, so I like the wheels in the magazine article better. It sure sits nice too. In my opinion, steppers need big tires to fill the wheel wells right & I sure do like the steppers...

Re: The definition of clean
Really looks great,but there is one thing I would have changed is to have the pipes come all the way out so none of it would get on the underbody. Must be a show truck because it would take me a week just to get it that clean after driving it.

Re: The definition of clean (81 stepside)
Ain`t she sweet.The 81/82 bumper (lights in) is perfect for that grille.I like the stance.
