I knew it would only be a matter of time before you got sidetracked on something else. GO FINISH YOUR TRUCK...

I have to agree with everyone here. Just like these guys I have wanted a short bed crewcab for quite some time. Your is looking for good.....

bagged74 · 08-04-2005, 12:19 AM

OK, good point. They are never finished untill they roll out of the yard with the new owner at the wheel. I should have said "GO WORK ON YOUR TRUCK" and quit hijacking this thread....

milehightoyz · 08-04-2005, 12:41 PM

hi bodydropped, im not too sure yet on turning. those 15" rallys are on temporarily and grind on the LCA's with the 3" dropped spindles so i havent even been able to drive it yet. im waiting for my wheels to come in, im gonna be running 18s on front 20s on rear. ill let you know how it goes when i get the correct wheels/tires on there.

milehightoyz · 08-08-2005, 08:04 PM

update for bodydropped, 18x8 with 4.5" back and 255/45/18 tires rub on the inner fenderwells with a 6inch front drop.ouch.

boxrodz · 08-11-2005, 01:01 AM

Looking good.

Another 1" on that 82 will make it look even better. Good progress.
I like the seats mock-up on the crewcab. What are those seats out of?

I know what you mean about the heat. But, the rain has given a bit of relief lately.
