(soon to be rear 4" ord flip, 2" blocks, 3" body, front 6" springs, 3" body w/ 38x15.5x16" tsl radials, I have the parts including 14bff and 10 corp., just have to put them on.)
Nice truck! Love that color too!!
 
Hey there...looks good! I have been looking for a photo to see what these tires looked like on a k5 or k10. How do you like the ride?


Thank you! The ride is great. I wanted something that would increase my capabilities off road but still let me do long hauls on the highway and I think it's the perfect balance between the two.
 
Mid March when I brought it home. 2300.00 plus 200 more for a BRAND NEW interior from another truck i should've drug home. Brand New dash pad, Dash Bezel, Seat and Doors with new Door panels.

After a weekend of swapping parts and cleaning. 8 cans of various spray paint.

Sand blasted the wheels, repainted them with argent (sp) silver, painted the bottom of the center caps black, just for something different. Its a clean truck, needs some body work and I'm going to put an 7004r in at some point. The clock in the dash still works. :eek1:

At this point i'm not sure if i want to keep it "Stockish" looking or 4inch suspension lift and mickey thompson classic II wheels. It will never be wheeled hard, just a daily driver that is enjoying the easy life.
 
Keep the stock wheels and beauty rings if you are not going to abuse it. They look just fine with some more meat on them and and a little lift. has a better look than the MT's at this age.:wink1:
