Dam....I love some pro street...Looking good

f.monroe · 06-05-2010, 11:25 PM

That look still looks right on our trucks . I like the skinnies up front . They appear to be dual car pattern wheels so how did you get them to fit the truck ? Re-drill the front rotors ,modify the wheel ,or adapters?

thanks, they make drag lites in 5x5s but the rears are 5x4.75 because there are custom moser axles in the rear

stock, but the c-notches are welded on, everythings gusseted, plus the the ladder bar cross member, and the upper shock mount crossmember.

Looks great but don't forget to put a grommet around the hole through the bed where the fuel lines pass through. It will cut the hose pretty quickly and the tech inspector will fail you for it.

Nice looking truck.

Those are Heddmans; I have the same set (for sbc) in my basement. Can you snap a pic of the wire routing?

Thanks-

Your truck is coming along quite nicely and in a relatively short time frame!! Good to see you chose this route. Keep the pics coming as you progress.

trixter99 · 06-06-2010, 10:55 PM

What are you doing as far as tubs? I've been thinking about redoing my bedfloor with thin aluminum sheets and prefabbed aluminum tubs(38 or 40").
