Big tires with little lift - Let's see them

[CyberSniper]

You rattle canned it or no? Cause that looks way too nice for rattle can.

First time around was rattlecan primer, then a combo brushed/sprayed Durabak, and then a rattlecanned Rustoleum Blue Metallic.

Rattlecan metallic is really hard to paint because it's difficult to get the glass particles (the flakes) to lay evenly. In my opinion it looks like crap but I don't think it matters too much since the Durabak looks even crappier. Definitely the biggest mistake I ever made. Duct tape sticks to Durabak better than Durabak does to anything else.

That's my favorite color! My lawnmower, daily driver, '53 and truggy are all semigloss (most of them have pinstriping too).

Somewhere there's a thread "how far fwd can i move the front axle w/out moving the steering box?" Never have gotten a good answer.

mines moved 3.5" forward with the box in the stock location and its fine. i think thanks about as far as you can go tho, my draglink is at a slight angle with the box in stock location.

It's coming back...just smaller. Fenders will be trimmed up to the body line or so. Bed will be some some sort of flatbed. Stretch WB, add toob.

Or something.

This is still a cool old thread to flip through every now and then...

11.00R16 Michelin XL's on stock 2007 16" steel wheels. Cut the front fangs, the rear quarter, and about to put 1" of lift up front and space the front axle forwards an inch or so.
Those are 38x11ishR16.
