Seems like there are not many people interested in trucks around here.

Would be cool to find a group of people into the same thing locally.

Also would be good to network with people to swap parts, etc..

I have a 3/4 ton of chevy truck parts on hand, among other things.

Any truck people around here?
 
Awesome thanks for sayin hello!

Where are you from on the island? I am in suffolk in west islip.

What kind of truck do you have?

Centereach. I have a stock 86 K5. Stock so far. Im a newbie when it comes to working on trucks but im using it as my learning tool. I plan a 4 inch lift with 33s this summer. Im in the proccess of getting cucv bumpers, so i can strip the trimming and paint it camo. I also need to rebuild the tcase and replace the ujoints as well as other maintainence.

What do you have?
 
I have a 14 bolt FF rear and a 10bolt 3/4 ton front.

Both have 4.10 gears matched set.

Front and rear bumpers from an 89 chevy

Front clip from an 89, paint on hood is peeling typical silver GM paint problems.

i have a NP203 transfer case with crossmembers, and driveshafts from an older K5

Thats offf the top of my head but sure I have more around.

oh..haha

I have an 84 K5 with 8" springs, and 3" body running 40" cepeks and 4.88 gears.

Orig built it for show and spent way too much $$ on paint to beat up and wheel in the woods and now I regret it so i am building another truck.

I can email pics if you like.

Latest project is going to be a tube chassis truck with a mid 80's crew cab and short bed on rockwelll 2.5 tons.

Just finished building the rears for it and divorced transfer case.

Chassis is designed and a cross between the patrick chassis (gravedigger) and willman.

Going to be a wild truck, at least for long islands turf.
 
wow awesome. Where on LI do you wheel? I mess around near route 112 on 25. Id love to go wheeling with someone else. My friend has a 92 bronco i go with sometimes but hes up in school now and its not quite up for what we wanna do with it. Hes tranny is screwed up because of an electrical issue and he dosnt have tires to take the punishment.
 
waiting to get me front driveshaft back from the driveshaft place this week. We are going to do a beach run within the next 2 weeks.

Prob out of smiths point.

I havent been there before, usually go out on the beach out east off Dune road in the hamptons because there is noone there to bother you. HAven't had this truck on the beach yet since it has been finished, should be a fun time.
 
whos we? And i normally go to gilgo, theres a few trails there. Its right by captree. You do anything other than beach? I know dune road west of shinnecock inlet, but i was never on the east side of the inlet, is it good? Heard you could camp on the beach and i know alot of people fish there too.
 
I have a few friends with big trucks. Only been west of the inlet.

I heard they bust chops at gilgo, I have been there in other peoples trucks to go fishing and do some testing of a new truck.

I doubt there are any other places to go on this island...need to go upstate to have any serious fun
 
they only bust chops at gilgo is there are surfers there. Ive never went on the beach near shinnecock. theres some places out east my friend heard of, and 112 and 25 is pretty fun, though im sure itll get old soon. Its always better with other people.
