I'm assuming that if I had wider wheels or a larger offset that there might be some rubbing but these factory steelies are tucked in pretty tight.

Thanks for the info, looks like they will fit for how I will use the truck.

I like the look of narrow rims like that and am going with that as well with 16.5x8.75 slot mags

You can read a little more history on this truck in my into thread. It started out as a K10 but now it's got all 3/4 ton axles.

So nice!!!

Looks good! I did a 14 bolt FF in the rear but the front is a D44 with the bigger outer hubs. It's kind of a stiff ride but I'm working on softening it up.

Thanks. It has a 350 in it, not sure of the trans. Plans are to focus on the mechanics. I want to put a 6 in lift with some 37s tires. I have a set 16.5 x 9.75 steel rims I plan on using.

Hey 1LegLance, Nice Burb! I think I read your build thread. Was it Nick that helped you out? That was an awesome thread and thoroughly enjoyed the break aways from the build to actually get it out in the dirt and use it. Looking to go the same route and set mine up for me and my boys to do some serious camping. I got two boys and two big dogs so I'm leaning towards adding an off-road trailer but that is way down the road. Anyways, can you share some info on your roof rack setup?

1968 Suburban I hauled home from the US, originally a Montana truck.

My new project. Won't be starting on it for a while yet. Crew cab cummins swap needs to be finished first, or at least driveable before starting another one. Future plans are 5.3L/4L60, bagged, 22" steeelies, and probably going ochre yellow/white at some point. Just gonna be nice driver and able to pull light duty like pulling the boat around and driving the family/dog to the cabin on days off. Pretty solid all around...typical rear quarter dents. Also have the 67 chevrolet front grill to be swapped out.
