I understood what you were talking about 3 posts ago. Understanding and it making sense are not necessarily the same thing.

This is not a dedicated trail rig, but does trailer to the destination usually. I am currently in the planning phase of doing a 52/56" spring swap, and getting back to being more road worthy.
So...why not take the unwanted steel wheels left over from the diesel and put them with the 37s?
3 sets of wheels, 3 sets of tires. Sell or dispose of the unwanted 5-lug wheels and the old worthless tires and live happily ever after.
Yep, Beags conversation actually sparked that idea. Not sure it’s a good idea to put 13.50 wide tires on a 6.5 steel wheels, but it’s worth a try.
Throw on the rusty wheels you have and put the aluminum on the diesel
You beat me to it
I’ve done it. It works fine.
Once I had a set of 12.50” wide tires on a set of 6.5” wide wheels, and I pulled a guy off of a ledge who was spinning his double bead lock wheels inside of his tires.

Was that after your truck played submarine?
I couldn’t remember if you had camper special wheels or not. May just go that route then.
Yes it was.
Grabbed a different cold air intake from work on Friday. This one seems to fit pretty good. The top rubber seal actually sits up against the hood. Not 100% on this yet, but looks like it’s the best fit so far.
Checked off 2 things on the list tonight. Nothing huge, but trying to at least do one thing a night. Had to work on the wife’s Tahoe first.
Fuel system can get a done stamp now.
Vacuum line ran for the brake booster. Just ran a 90* into the back of the intake where the factory plug was.
Then threw the cover back on to see how close I’m getting for motivation.

They very well could have been from a Camper Special, I don’t remember where they came from.
You are probably talking about the stupid 16.5” x 9.75” wheels that people incorrectly call “camper special”?
Ordering a truck with the Camper Special option did not include 16.5” x 9.75” wheels.
In fact in a few years it made the truck unavailable with the 9.75” wheels.

Ah I remember you saying something about that now.
What’s for dinner you ask? Spaghetti!
Going to have to finish it up a little bit. Mainly replace the missing loom. And clean up the old grease off of it. But can’t complain for free!!!

Spaghetti always good for a birthday dinner. happy birthday by the by.
Just keep at it, it looks like a plate full but when your done its so satisfying, lol
Anyone know what these 2 sub harnesses are for?
I know this is for the injectors, but my intake already has that harness still on it.

Anyone on these sub harnesses?
Short one looks like a coil harness.
The long one with heat shielding looks like it could go to the starter solenoid and maybe pre-cat o2 sensors. But that's a guess since I can't see the terminal ends.
