33x12.5" tires on stock springs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Welp, if anyone wants to know what it looks like here ya go. I have 3 leaf springs in the front instead of 2, and regular 1/2 ton 5 leafers in the back. The front sits a little higher than usual and levels the truck out nicely, although it rides a little more stiff. So far no rubbing but if I flex the truck out off-road I suspect they will rub but nothing I have done on the street has caused them to rub yet.

its not quite as pretty up close, needs a few dings fixed and new paint. The paint looks great in pics though, its nice and shiny but has many places where it has started peeling from scratches, and my dad when pulling my brother out of a mud hole one time broke a metal hooked tow strap and it hit the tail-gate, put a good ding in it.

I love the truck though, hope to fix her up a little nicer one day, not a bit of rust on the body, and if any starts it is immediatley treated so it doesn't ever get started.

And thanks for the compliment
