"New" Daily Driver Pickup "Project"

Look good!
What size are the BFG’s ?

 

Thanks! They are 275/60/15 in the rear and 255/60/15 in the front which makes the front tires about 3/4” narrower and an inch shorter. Not much difference, but just enough in my mind.

 

Wheel weight issue solved. Figured I better check lower a-frame to wheel clearance turned to the maximum amount since I expected to have to trim them back a bit. Heck, probably have an 1/8” or so of clearance…. I think I’ll trim them enough to at least double that. Also measured ground clearance under the lower a-arms. It’s right at 3-1/4” static. I’ll have to watch out for dead animals on the highway. Lol

 

That whole wheel/tire and stance deal is real.

 

The truck looks better then it did when you started. The white letters look OK.

 

A little comet and scrub brush every few months, no big whoop! Letters super easy over white walls. I think a 73-79 front is in the future though for that right 70’s look.

 

Here is my 78 f-50
With T/As. 245/60- 235/70 up front I think
Wish I still had it. Sold it for $1500 in 2006

cause I was sick of smogging it
stupid California!

 

Looks great man. Gonna post a gif of you doing donuts in it when you get it running?!?!

 

Probably not… Have you priced those BFG’s lately?!?!

 

Decided I’m gonna try like heck to make this thing run this week! Tired of it just sitting on the lift and me not driving it. Plus, the radiator in my 51 sprung a leak, so now it’s down too until I get that fixed.
