Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Wow your frame looks great, love the rims too. I probably missed it but what are the specs on your rim & tire setup.

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Looks Amazing! Congrats and I'm sure you're excited...remember when I got my 70 back as a roller.....and it wasn't nearly as nice as this...I was stoked!
 Especially love the shot straight on!

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
and that rotisserie front piece is holding front up 3/4 "....I knew it would lay but nothing like dumping it the 1st time......20/12's rear..20/8.5 front....315-35-20 and 255-40-20 (I think that's right on front!)...there's over 4" more clearance from back of rear tire to frame bolt heads....could have wedged a 15" rear I think but I like the 12's....5" backspace .....6" lip on rear........jim

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Jim, Your chassis and wheels look like rolling art! I love it. Looking forward to cab install pics. Keep hammering.
Oh yeah, that welding cart is sweet. |

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
Very nice progress. What's the deal on the transmission interference? I thought the 4l80 would fit with a high hump? Did you drop your cab? Maybe I missed it in one of your posts?
