Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
I've been thinking about getting a set of Foose Legends, what are the specs of the wheels and your truck (tire size and make, wheel width and backspacing, suspension)? Thanks

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
the truck is lowered with 3 in drop spindles in the front and 5 in in the rear. The wheels are foose 20x8.5 in the front with 14mm offset and 20x10 in the rear with 20mm offset. the front tires are 245/40/20 cooper zeons and the rear tires are 265/55/20. These tires are fairly reasonable areound $700 for a set. I bought the rims off of ebay at a good deal, only $1200 for the wheels and they are $2000 off the website.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Here is my 86. 305/700R4, 1.25 coils cut out of each side and 1 leaf removed. She's mostly done, I need some clear sidemarkers, and not the ones from LMC.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
The console was bought from some company many moons ago. lol He doesn't remember who, I'll look see if it has a name on it. watahyahknow, wrong longhorn. Its a 68 with a 292. my brother and I had the truck and when I got the 86, it became his truck. He is on here, name is Mayo.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Here is a pic of the 84 I had in High school. I put every dollar I made into this truck and have been kicking myself ever since selling it. The kid that bought it from me totalled it about a month after he bought it.

That is, or was, a sharp truck man.
Don't fret over losing it, just be happy you have one to make even better! |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
It started out as a stock '82 with a big block
![]() The motor's been rebuilt and puts out 500+ Hp and almost 600 ft. lbs. ![]() It's got a full 4-link in the rear and a crossover exhaust ![]() ![]() I'm currently installing a tubular front end from DJM and then it's heading for paint.
