No. I didn't think to start a thread. I'm probably too old. I didn't even take very many pictures of the process. ??? Kicking myself in the asss for that.

I've been "lurking" a long time and doing a ton of thread searches. You guys have been an unmeasurable benefit when putting things back together. I would have been screwed without searches on this forum.

Well, there's no harm in starting a thread for it now. I'm sure we all like to see pictures of the lives these trucks lead once they're restored. Especially one as nice as yours. Nice looking interior by the way.

Pulled off the rallies and went with 8" steelies. What did the 15 x 8 steel wheels come on originally?

Thinking about a new setup, slim pickings in 6x5.5 that fit my taste.

Looking good!

If I remember correctly the 15x8 steelies came of 4wd Blazers. If they are 5 lug it would have been from 71-72 4wd Blazers.

I think.
