I am working on getting my old set of 20" on the truck they came off my old s-10 Ill post some picks if i can. I am going to go john deer flat black and drop it down as low as i can untill i can save up to bag it.

ChevLoRay · 09-08-2009, 01:33 PM

The wheels look good, but in my opinion more rubber is needed. What profile are those tires?

mr mike · 09-09-2009, 12:36 AM

I live in Lancaster pa and had to fly to north Carolina and drove it home. I am going to bag it some day but for now i am just going to drop it with spring as low as i can go. If an one knows if the jeep spring work in the rear let me know thanks

mr mike · 09-10-2009, 12:12 AM

You all like pics so Ill post them. The tire size is 255/35/20. I got the bed sanded down and found a lot of body work under the paint. I have to do the tailgate yet but in time or i might just pick up a new one. The truck has a new wiring harness in it from the other guy but my turn signals are not working so i have the dash all apart and a new steering wheel to put on and I just pick up a new dash pad and arm rest's and a bunch of other part so that about dos it for now.[IMG]
