COYS WHEELS= EPIC FAIL. DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM. Their customer service has left completely.


5 month wait , drive 5 hours to pick up the set of wheels.
Two wheels only.

Call fronts being sent out " that morning"

Wait. Another 134$$ in shipping pickup

THE WRONG WHEELS

Ordered two 18x8. 5 on 5 rims
Received two 18x9. 5 on 4.75 rims

Called , now he wants me to send all four back and give me a refund , WTF GET ME TWO CORRECT WHEELS AND IM HAPPY.

Rant over

so it back to the 64, im installing the inner truss set up porterbuilt sent me, and ill be putting the engine and trans back in.

I need something to do, so I cleaned out the cab and installed the steering wheel. I think Id like to get a tilt column, I can add that to the list but im getting the cab ready for install anyway.
