Re: got a new truck!!!!

Stay away from the rustoleum plastic paint it chips very easy .You are basicly buying latex spray on paint when you buy the rustoleum stuff. Looks good im am fiberglassing my dash and tips on how you did yours?

Looks like a solid truck. Looking good! Do you have the wheels on the truck yet? Dash pad looks great.

Re: got a new truck!!!!

Wheels are on tomorrow afternoon. I had to renegotiate my stance with the 285/35/22 tires. I have a set of 2 inch springs and a set of 3 inch springs and i put in the 3 inch springs and the stock wheels rub the inner fenders. I just painted them and would like to keep them, so for now i have taken out the rear shackle to give me a total of 5 inches rear and put the 2 inch springs up front to give me a 5 inches up front. I think i'll end up swapping the springs and getting rid of the fender wells eventually

Re: got a new truck!!!!

do you have any more pics of the truck with the 22s installed? If youre truck was to tuck the wheels how much of a gap would you have before rubbing the outer wheel well? I want to put 22s on my truck also with 295/35/22 tires just wanted to make sure another 1/4 wider would fit? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks Michael from Arizona.

you can run that tire out back. there's a good 3/4" left in the rear with the 285/35/22's mine rubbed at first in the front and then i pulverized the inner lip(problem solved).
