Pics of 67-72 aired out - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*screamin_c102* · 04-02-2005, 03:39 PM

Can the air-ride guys post pics of the truck aired out and post a description of there setup?
Bag size cup height C-notched or not, bolt in C-notch or weld in. Spindle size (stock or dropped) blocks on the rear end or not and if so what height?

Tire/rim size and offset.

Basically a bit of detail with the post.

I'm baggin' Screamin' this summer and would like to get some ideas of ride height and setup.

Thanx...Bill

Ah, easy enough. I was thinking (hoping) it was some kind of top plate with a recess. I think that's where I need to be looking for that extra inch or so.

*screamin_c102* · 04-07-2005, 09:39 PM

That's close to the stance I want, I just don't want to do the damn C-notch.

Norcal what size wheels are those?

Thanks for the pics guys....Anybody else got pics?

XXL can you throw up some pics of your truck?

I've read a few of your posts and, others have made mention of it in there posts, I am curious to see it

Thanks....Bill

I'm curious to see two answers: NORCAL's wheel size? Where can I get those square mirrrors? I'm about to sell my cheezy round mirrors to another board member and want something I can actually see out o.

kingsolver72 · 04-08-2005, 12:40 AM

Am I wrong,but aren't NORCAL'S rectangular mirriors the same as OLDROCK&ROLLER'S?

Yep, I believe they are factory, I see them in LMC all the time.

kingsolver72 · 04-08-2005, 12:45 AM

Thats what I was thinking.

shifty · 04-08-2005, 12:47 AM

I won't buy from LRC. They're factory? What years? All of the 67 and 68s I see have round mirrors like mine. Do those rectangular ones use the three-bolt pattern?

kingsolver72 · 04-08-2005, 01:01 AM

72s.I have those same mirriors on my ochre 72,And have bought tons of stuff from LMC.

shifty · 04-08-2005, 01:05 AM

I've heard nothing but horror stories about shopping with LMC and everyone seems to say "use them as a last result". I'm confused....

If they are "using them as a last resort" they are still using them.I believe those people have a legitimate *****.I have read good and bad things here about LMC.It is true,they send out some killer free catalogs.I bought a set of LMC doors from a board member here (and have personally gone to LMC and purchased lots of parts from them),a lot of people here wanted them,I was fortunate in that I could pick up the doors(a 35 minute drive).They fit great.I can post pics if you want.I would suggest, if you need parts,buy from board vendors first.

NORCAL_GUY73 · 04-13-2005, 05:13 AM

true there are original mirrors, I bought mine from the truck shop, ben good so far, just make sure you get stainless screws, the cheap ones rust.
My rims are eagle alloys 221's 20X8 and 20X9.5... I run a 245-35-20 and 275-35-20 but I plan to swap the fronts to a 255-35-20 for a tad more sidewall... but even as it is, it rides damn good.....
