Saturday pics

Just thought I'd share a few pics of my truck. The weather was nice and I realized that I haven't posted many pics of my truck on here, so here it goes.

Re: Saturday pics

Nice photo work including picking the setting and background.

That truck has a perfect stance in my book.

Re: Saturday pics

I didn't think that I would get this kind of response from everyone. This was just an old beat up truck that needs a paint job. The drop is all from ECE. Its got 2" drop spindles and 2.5" (I think) springs in the front. I have a big block in it and ECE said they are 2.5" big block springs. The rear has 6" drop springs with the super trac bar and drop shocks. It all came in a kit from ECE. The whole front suspension is brand new also from ECE. I wish that I would of had the frame powder coated, but time and money didn't allow for it. I'm probably going to leave the truck the way it is for a while, because I've got a nova that needs some attention. Thanks everyone for the comments! I love this place!

I would definitely roll that. Looks great.

You have a loose bumper bolt BTW.

Re: Saturday pics

I was thinking it would be a 4.5/6 drop but with the big block up front it must bring that thing down a little more in the front. Great looking truck!

Re: Saturday pics

Thanks guys! The tires are 255/60's on 15x8's. I don't know the back-spacing on the wheels. I want a set of 20" coys, but the economy says no right now. I like the comment on 'going green with one wiper'. There's alot of little things that need to be done like the 'other' wiper, the loose bumper bolt, etc. I'm just having fun driving it right now!

I have absolutely nothing against big wheels, with that being said, the rallys fit the look of that truck perfectly, I don't think the Coy's can compete on this one.
