Cool Stepsides 73-87 pics...

Alright guys.. I love all the trucks y'all have but I still think stepsides are so much... IMO (don't hate me for this) better looking. I just love the stepper bed and more of the hot rod look. I'm building my stepside and was wondering what front clip looks the best. Single round head light, square lights, or 91 burban front clip. Well post away with.some stepsides...

Re: Stepsides 73-87 pics...

i have a 4inch rancho with 33's. Gear ratio is 373's i have the 700r trans.
4 inch is great for me.
bonus, it still fits in the parking garages here in el paso, you should see the look on peoples faces when they think it wont fit..lol

Re: Stepsides 73-87 pics...

With the stepsides i think that the 73-80 front clips looks best because the way the body line on the front fenders round off just like the beds rear fenders. They just go together.
But on fleets i feel that both fronts look good.

Re: Stepsides 73-87 pics...

s10 fan, what kinda flat paint is that primer? matte clear or what? I like how it's deeper looking and a bit more shine to it then primer, and primer fades bad. So how'd you pull that one off a clear or what?

Re: Stepsides 73-87 pics...

S10fan a few questions bro.. what drop did you use on your truck. What size tires and did you weld your hood to the cowl vent. That looks sick yo! Let me know on your stance or drop info. That's what I want for my 81 stepper thanks in advance
