Re: 87 Chevy Crew Cab 4x4 Converion/Cummins swap

The dash is all factory. Its cracked in 3 places and looks horrible! Eventually I plan to replace it.

Bit the bullet and got the truck registered yesterday taking the plate from my 2000 cummins. (which was the motivation for this build, to replace the ext cab)

So now I am STUCK driving this truck@!

Last night I took it out for an extended around the block drive to get it up to temp and all, and it got to temp, then kept going, then leveled out where its supposed to be, hopefully just an air bubble in the system that worked out.

Unfortunately the tires that were on it are dry rotted and crap, woke up this morning to a completely flat front tire.

Wife says to me yesterday you NEED to get tires on it, it looks ridiculous with those little tires. I was wanting to hold off! But now I guess I have to.

What are the largest tires I can put on stock dually wheels without any kind of spacer between them in the back? I'm thinking its gonna look best with 285-315 or 35's all around, I just don't want to coin up for wheels just yet.
