My Crew has NEW Shoes... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

No job yet (there are a few possibilities) but was able to scrounge up a few $$$ to head out to Long Beach today to grab some new shoes for my rig:

Firestones WWW
Front 235/70R16
Rear: 265/70R16

Wider steel wheels are next. 16x9 in the rear and 16x7 up front. Maybe a set of Mooneyes disc too. Did tires first due to old front set were pretty bad.

I know it needs to be lowered a bit more. Will address this when I get the 14bolt ff rearend re-geared and installed. Soon I hope. This pic was taken with bout 100psi in the rear airshocks.

Btw, Performance Plus is also known on-line as www.hotrodhanks.com

Looks good, I really like that truck! One of the best crewcabs done, some just don't look right.

Ain't nothin' like a new pair of shoes...

That's a clean lookin' ride!!

Over the past few years I ain't been able to do much of what I've wanted on the truck. Little by little the work begins. Guess I'll have to create a build thread and take more pics as I go. When I'm wrenching on the truck I get too lazy to wash my hands so the camera stays in it's case. Guess I'll have to break down and do the photo thing as this evolves. Thanks!
