New stance also (right tire size)



Next thing on the list... fix the paint on the roof... its fading horribly

 

Sweeeeet !! 235/85/16 ?

time for coil spacers

 

no, 267/75R16 Still 31" tall

Now that i got u, what kind of paint did you use on the roof? i need to make sure i shoot the right stuff on top of it. I want to go with an oil based paint if possible.

 

i was about to say, they look wide. I like the look.

Do the 265's rub the front suspension at full lock? i have a bunch of 265's and wanna put them on the 93 but someone told me they'd rub some front suspension part under there at full lock

 

look like the stock tires you off some newer dodges? I got some 3rd gen rims and tires like those sittin in my shop, but they are 17s.

 

they just went on about 3 hours ago... so i don't know. I took the mechanic for a test ride... he was more than impressed. he said "man this turbo really spools" I told him you should see what she does with the 06 turbo is on it... (he thought i still had the 351 in there, since he cut the flange for me).

Anyways i'll go scope out a parking lot and pull the tires then check for wear for both our sake.

they came off an excursion with only 5k on them.

 

who's your mechanic i'll give him a ride in a real truck with a real trans

 

All you are gonna do is miss and grind gears anyway.

 

YEAH RIGHT MAN!!, actually you're probably right

 

Ever tried paint like this? My 89 had some thin spots and some pin holes near the drip rail. I put some of this on it 18 months ago and it still looks like it did the day I applied it. It's the kind of stuff they paint oil rigs with.

 

ahah you're asking the wrong person. I'm 90% sure he shot it with Epoxy primer, i don't think he used any kind of paint

i think it's just primer Nick, but you're best off emailing or calling my Dad

 

nice lookin truck

 

Thanks Jim i'll have to look into that stuff. I want to do just the upper side of the cab and hood with something, just not sure on the color. I'm thinking white, but who knows when i get around to it i may choose something else spur of the moment.

What are you talking about Brandon???... REAL trucks have leaf springs in the front, you don't have any of those.

Thanks DREWSTA i just went through the free car wash i'll take better pictures in a moment.

 

Funny because the only thing of yours that has leaf springs up front ISN'T A TRUCK IT'S AN SUV !!

 

My golf cart has leaf springs up front. Besides i'm not trying to convince anybody that i'm driving a REAL truck.
