hammered the rims and tires on tonight. night time pics suck but it'll do for now. It's 101" wide...........I think some vehicles shoot for that as a wheelbase :gulp: forgot to bring the centercaps so shes bare for now. Mike Im not sure what the stock gear weighs. but i weighed the rims and adapters. 1 rim 1 adapter 10 lugnuts....88lbs..... no tire. its about 100lbs per with tire.

Looks good Luke. So they stick out about 2-3" per side then? How much room to the leaf springs?

couple inches from the inner to the leafs. 3-4" outside the flare.


Since I can't leave anything alone for 5 minutes....... Heres the Import shredders.

still looking for the correct cover and caps for the rear though

Those are some meaning looking stud bolts. You get that HX-40 turning yet? I can't wait to see how your ride turns out. Nice stuff.

Hey Luke, that engine is supposed to be in the front of the truck, not the back . . .
