Nice.

Did you notch the frame ? And if the truck is close could you measure the distance between the frame and the axel. Just checking out how much drop my truck would have.

c-1072 · 05-22-2005, 10:20 PM

what you doin with the old wheels? they any good

DevinM · 05-22-2005, 10:40 PM

After speakin with Dave at ECE, and reading numerous threads from this forum, a "C-Notch" was not needed. Next time I go out, I'll take some measurement for you.

As for the Cragar's. I'm not sure what I'm doing. The fronts, I think are 15x8's and have pitting and surface rust. The rears are 15x10's. No pitting, no rust. I was thinking of storing the truck in the winter with these rims on it, but I'm still not sure.

Thanks again for all the compliments.
