Plans are to stay on it this time. Hopefully be a driver by April/Mayish. We will see.

Oh! Tires, Nexen (cheap but I like em cheap), 245/30's and 295/30's

Be nice to see it at Scrapin!!

Any updates?

YBNORML · 02-11-2012, 01:20 AM

I love this truck. I remeber seeing it Streettrucks before I became a member. Not too many steppers out there this low.

Rustspot...sorry to ask questions but i have a 67 stepside that i want to lay frame and was told id have to modify the fenders (which you cleared up for me ,thanks). So was the rear end out of the s-10 the key due to width? And the stock rear end wouldnt work? If so, what was the year of s-10 rear end or width if you have that info?

I had the exact same question. I'm going to narrow my early ('69) rear to accomodate 20" x 10" wheels with 5.25 BS running 295/40's and I'm installing Porterbuilts dropmembers front and rear. Wondering what width I should go when narrowing so I can lay that sucker on the ground without interference from the fenders.
This truck looks incredible...made me want to stick with the stepside instead of swapping the fleet bed from another truck I have.

smartass12 · 02-20-2012, 10:11 PM

such a sick looking truck indeed..i already ordered all my stuff from Nate just want to start grabbing rear-end, wheels, tires and such while it wait (patently) for my drop members...but sure as hell have no clue what im doing so thats with all my questions

Jimbabwe · 02-21-2012, 12:23 AM

Mmm, Very Sick. I both begin salivating and cry with utter happiness when I look at this truck!
I've got lots of boxes staring at me already, but I, like you, have questions, since I know bikes, not bagging trucks. We'll get there..

smartass12 · 02-29-2012, 10:05 AM

well got some parts....rustspot, did you have a chance to get that info on your rear end?

rustSpot · 03-09-2012, 03:33 PM

Sorry guys! Been swamped at work. I'll have the measurements on the rearend tonight and post. Thanks again for the compliments.

rustSpot · 03-09-2012, 05:49 PM

My rearend is 54" mounting point end to end.

Jimbabwe · 03-10-2012, 02:36 AM

Hey, busy is a good thing! Thanks for taking the time to measure the rear, I really appreciate it.

smartass12 · 03-10-2012, 09:07 AM

thats again for taking the time to measure for us

zach2648 · 03-16-2012, 10:28 AM

hey rustspot got a question.... i know your frame is custom, but is it stock width and everything? i am wanting to run 22s with my stepside i have the 2wd s10 rear and everything its just a notched stock frame and i didnt know if the backspacing would be the same for my application

thanks man i appreciate it..... your truck looks awesome btw it has really inspired me to hang in there and keep workin at mine

smartass12 · 05-18-2012, 09:13 AM

rustspot (if u have the time) could you take three measurements for me. rear tire width, distance from outside rear tire edge to outside rear tire edge, and distance from inside rear tire edge to inside rear tire edge. Reason i need these measurements are i dont think my rear suspension setup is the same as your and i need to see if i can lay frame (with your rear end/wheel setup) without any binding/rubbing on the rear suspension components. Thanks again in advance if you are able to find the time.
