Thanks! May be in the market for a set this spring. Any tips on the hot hook-up for them?

These are one piece wheels and come with one set backspacing.
But the U202 are 2-piece wheels and can be ordered with any backspacing,... and different sizes and widths.
I bet n2billet could hook you up with a set of these wheels,...

Making a litttle progress, got the motor up and running, installed the passenger inner fender and finished the exhaust, I will install the drivers side inner after I get the p/s bleed. I also made a antenna cover since I’m not using a radio and before you ask “no the truck is not free” it means “not for sale”

n2billet · 02-04-2018, 10:46 PM

I also modified an old radiator cap, i enjoy the time on the lathe. I’ll paint it black before installing.

smbrouss70 · 02-04-2018, 11:11 PM

Looks good Keith!

Nice touch!

n2billet · 02-11-2018, 11:38 AM

Almost there....

mcbassin · 02-12-2018, 05:20 PM

Looks great Keith!

SCOTI · 02-12-2018, 06:51 PM

Did you also do a splash of color on the firewall? If not, it cleaned up REALLY well vs. previous pics.

sprint_9 · 02-12-2018, 10:33 PM

What are you using for your flat black? It looks really nice.

I'm pretty sure the tires are 245/40 and 275/40.

Keith where are you getting that Medallion HR black paint from? I did a quick google search and couldn't find it. Also assuming you use the Satin finish?

Hey Graham57. It's sorta hard to find. It's a single stage satin black. Made by Medalion. They also sell Rubberseal clear products. I think company is Tekol. Something like that.

Thanks STP, I found the SEM HR black but they are proud of it. If I can't find the Medalion product I'll just go the SEM route

Duuuude! Hero status! You just saved me almost half of what I was about to pay for another set of tires. Next time I see you, beers are on me

FYI for anyone else looking, same seller has them on eBay for cheaper

Stickman · 02-15-2018, 08:47 AM

I agree, Simpletire has some great deals and even cheaper on ebay as you said. Thanks Keith
