Thanks guys! I actually just had it repainted this last summer. It was pretty solid before, but had a few rusty spots that needed attention. Just wanted to take care of it before it got out of hand.

Thanks. It's a 3 or 4 inch lift, the fronts are 4 inch springs but they've sagged a bit due to the big block and there used to be a winch on the front. There's 3 inch blocks out back.

Very nice, I considered running bread truck 19.5s for a while but haven't got around to it. I even used to have a lays chip truck I could have taken them off of, but that was years ago.

If you keep the tires you have now, I say no bigger than 4", 6" would be towering them. My truck is 4" Tuff Country springs in the front and 3" blocks in the back if you look back at my posts.

What size tires are on there now 225/70R19.5? Some 245s or 265s would fit nicely on a 4" or maybe even 285s on a 6", but that would be pushing it on the narrow wheels.

I too love bacon! And the utility grille on you're '91 is a pretty unique touch.

Looking good Toby! Sorry I didn't get a chance to catch up, I was shipped out to work short notice.

I'm still trying to figure out what to do with that 2wd you sold me. I think I may just have her repainted...

If you ever wanna sell your current 4x4 let me know!

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!

1 of my eventual dream trucks that I hope to build one day.

http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/i/20...se-d5hjpje.jpg


I currently don't have any money. There was a truck out there in Kentucky that was in really nice shape with low miles for it's age that I would have love to have fixed up, but like I said I can't afford it. I'm a poor college student with about $2000 or more in student loans to pay off. I'm hoping to land myself a decent career that way I too can post real pictures of my future truck.

New to me 84, pulling the body off and sliding it over a 87 4x4 frame and a new engine/trans combo. I will most likely powder coat everything since I am lucky enough to do it for free.
