1979 K10 SWB "Jolly Green Giant"

Those G-FX TR35 I am looking at I actually found on custom offsets website

On another note, U-haul's new toy hauler trailer is pretty well on point. I rented 2 of them to drag all of my junk from Missouri to Arizona, they pull real nice and my Chevy fit with room to spare in every way. My 4-door F150 fit no problem as well. Only real draw back is that the ramps have a fixed spread. No problem for me but maybe someone might find that inconvenient.

I’d buy one of those trailers in a heartbeat if Uhaul ever sold them. They pull great and handled my overweight K5 with zero issues. Just need a couple more points to tie down to.

This is wheel I keep mentioning

Although the price is actually higher for the 8 x 6.5. $223 a piece, not really a big deal

H2 wheels do look nice, and I have considered them. The offset requires wheel spacers if I remember right.

No spacers needed. Between my dad and brother and I we have three sets on Square bodies.

I thought there was something about the center bore being a fuzz small...

I do like the position of my tires I currently have, they are 16x10 wheel with somewhere around 3.5 inch back space. The H2's math out to about 5.5" backspace, and they are only 8.5 wide, which narrows the track even farther.

Right now I can go full lock on my steering and not hit my springs with the tire (38 ×14.5). Wondering if the H2 wheels with 40×13.5 would rub the springs.

Haven’t had that issue yet on GM axles. I did run into that issue on my OBS with a 99-04 ford 60. Had to run a 1/4” spacer on that axle.

I kinda like those equalizers

The black rings always look like crap after a few rock rashes.

Yeah, I hadn't thought about that...

I was leaning hard towards the OJOS and now you thinking again

 

[CriticalAction]

I think raceline is still having a sale right now.

I've got a Dode 60 with GM hubs in my truck. The H2's needed a little work on the bore to fit. Factory they are hub centric, I took a router to the bore and use the lugs to center it now. Been few years now with no issues.

Maybe you can get ojos with a plain ring?
Or keep a black sharpie in the door panel!

 

[Justin V]

My brain won't decide...


How uncivilized of me would it be to buy 2 of each and swap rings around...

One side of the truck would be black with machined rings and the other would be silver with black rings...

I don't think I would ever actually do that, but the thought wafted through the brain space.
