I still need to change out the front shocks and springs, but for the back, the ride quality is better. Not a lot better or quite as nice as I'd like, but it's still a lowered old truck, so I can't expect it to ride as nice as my GTO or a new car. Until I go air that is... (I should say IF I go air) I'm happy with how it looks, except I still want to replace the wheels. I'm going to get a set of Coy's C-57's in chrome, 20x8.5 & 20x10. It will likely be around Christmas, or next year before I'll have the funds for them though. The wheels on it now are 22's with 35 series rubber, so the 20's with 45 series rubber should help soften the ride a little.

Thanks Steve! I'm enjoying the progress on your build as well. Tom looks good. I read about your firewall painting turned complete truck just a few minutes ago.
