Beautiful truck. I have been a big fan of this squarebody while the previous owner had it.

Not usually big on side pipes but have to admit it rock with the black rims and black paint, good looking truck.

Front - 15x7 with 255/60 (soon to be changed to 225/70)
Rear - 15x8 with 275/60

Front is dropped with spindles and springs - about 5"
Rear is flipped and I am about to add a 3/4" lowering block to that to bring it down a touch more.

I agree, a bit lower in the back it will match the front, nice truck, any more details.

I bought this off original owner in 1985. Now it's just been sitting in front of my house for the last year.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II

It's a 2.5/4 with 235/75/15s on it. 15x8s. I'm wanting some wider tires on it, but these are still new

Nice color combo. Probably one of my favorite of the two tones.
