Man that's too cool. Love the bed. Did you make that front bumper yourself? It looks about like the one I have from Blazen Off Road. Where's your winch though? I mean just so you can help other people get unstuck.

Thank you

Front bumper is ORD, bed is by me and is currently in phase 2 (more tube) , winch is on the want list along with a doubler

Posted some of these in other posts but I thought I'd share them here too.
89 K5 no lift 265/75 BFG M/T on 16x8 Procomp 7069s w/ 4'' BS.

I guess I can actually comtribute to this for once instead of just whoring and dreaming



Stock 85 on 32x11.5 buckshot Mudders

4" ord springs in the front, axle moved forward 1/2" and the longer ord shackles (which really give closer to 5" IMO)

And diy4x shackle flip rear with 6" shackles.


33x12.5" r15 truxs mt tires on 15x8 steelies.


It turned out looking completely perfect in my eyes.

And FYI you will need more slip yoke on your front driveshaft with these springs up front, and a 1350 cv rear driveshaft with the yoke from a 14bsf did the trick in the rear.

Nice looking rig, I'm a bit biased toward big, white k5's though.
I do see some fender trim in your future... better to do it yourself than have your tires do it for you

 

[496truck]

Nice clean burb!!!

 

[andyblack]

Dang. Looks brand new.

 

[tfitch03]

Thanks! Almost 225k miles.

 

[AJMBLAZER]

Might want to include the tire size.

 

[tfitch03]

Good thinking. Edit complete.

Daddy's Truck

I had some questions from my profile. To clarify, 6" Rough Country suspension lift and 35" Goodyear MTR w/ Kevlar.

I've been driving this work in progress since 1998 and have gone from a hellraisin' college kid who did whatever the law doesn't know with this truck to a professional with a career, wife and kids. I'm still driving it as my daily driver. Some probably laugh, but deep down inside they're probably jealous. I can't tell you how many thumbs up or great comments I get driving this truck (at least 3 times a day). I'm proud of it and a song came out of it.

I know the folks on this site will appreciate it. That's why I'm posting this here first. The song is for sale on my site only, but I'd be just as honored if you'd give it a listen.

"Daddy's Truck" is a song available for preview or purchase at http://www.bigcityrocks.com

I hope you guys enjoy it as much I enjoyed making it. Crank it! And thumbs up to all you guys who drive real American trucks.
