Thanks guys...I'm in the process of shopping around for tires...checking out a couple local places. Hope to have some on in the next few weeks.

joe231 · 09-20-2010, 06:52 PM

I can't wait!!!

mooseknuckles · 09-20-2010, 06:56 PM

yeah me niether......the waiting really sucks. The worst part was sitting at a car show all day saturday, and my brand new wheels sitting at home!

joe231 · 09-20-2010, 06:57 PM

Oh yeah
that sucks. I would have cried.....but just a little

STOCKISH · 09-20-2010, 10:17 PM

Those are the lowest profile tires I've ever seen.

The wheels look great!

mooseknuckles · 09-20-2010, 10:37 PM

.....mabye someone could photoshop some tires for me. lol.

mooseknuckles · 09-23-2010, 05:00 PM

Not much progress...still tire shopping, ordered wheelnuts, and I still need valve stems....I like the fact that their on the back of the wheel!

mooseknuckles · 09-27-2010, 09:48 PM

Not much happening lately. The weathers been crap. I got my wheels paid for and I'm trying to save up for tires now, but I still need a winter beater yet! So I might have to wait awhile for tires. It's starting to look like it might not happen till spring.

I put my old air cleaner assembly back on today I think it helps some.....inner fenders would probably help keep some heat in and the rain out too. Anyhow soon time to park it. I wish I had a nice warm garage to keep it in all winter tho, I got a lot of things I want to do to it when it gets parked.

*nbpro* · 10-28-2010, 09:10 PM

I hear you on the warm garage thing. Lot of things i could be doing if i had one. trucks looking nice dude, keep up the good work.

motornut · 10-28-2010, 11:48 PM

wow nice rims,to get more heat try to cover the front a bit.As long as you have gauges you should be able to watch it!

Thanks alot!......I have some big plans for it in the spring!

mooseknuckles · 11-05-2010, 11:13 PM

It's starting to get colder here, and it's snowed a few times now. Time to put it away....I hate this time of year!

mooseknuckles · 11-09-2010, 05:31 PM

mooseknuckles · 11-10-2010, 05:27 PM

Pop's C-10 · 11-10-2010, 06:12 PM

nice build...gives me alot of idea's

mooseknuckles · 11-13-2010, 02:11 PM

Thanks.........It's getting there. My plan is to save up some money over the winter for a 4 link kit and rear bags. Then bag the rear and "Z" the front in the winter or early spring, raise the bed floor, get my tires and wheels on and drive the _ _ _ _ out of it!

joe231 · 11-13-2010, 11:19 PM

sounds like a good plan!!
I can't wait!!

Panelman55 · 11-14-2010, 12:52 AM

Can you give me some details on the tailgate handle relocation? It look like a nice job. I love a smooth looking tailgate.

haha....what relocation? I cut a big hole in the backside, that's as far as I got with it! I had planned on a relocating kit, but I'm gonna raise my bed floor anyway so I think I'm just gonna weld it shut and smooth out all the seams....
