Re: my 1955 chevy truck
These trucks look really cool with a fleetside bed and its gonna be killer when its done and sitting on the rockers just looking cool. I looked for a fleetside and could not find one so I had to settle on a step.
Once again man the truck looks great. Last edited by Kabwe; 05-18-2011 at 01:16 PM. |

Re: my 1955 chevy truck
its takes a little more work prior to installing the hats of the mustang 2 to get them to work but the bigger the bag the less air pressure the better the ride

Re: my 1955 chevy truck
33" was a little long but it ended up working for me to clear the headers without a heim joint support. i could not find a good priced column with the o/d gear selector and key in 30" long.
