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

If you're asking about my fleetside, the color is called butane blue pearl, and I stole it from Chrysler who used the color on their 2006 300M. It is a silver with a hint of blue in it, just enough to match my stock blue interior.
Cheers

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

Bob's got a flip in the rear and a 2.5" spindle & a 1" drop coil w/ a 1/2 a coil cut off on the front. It rides great and I really like the even look.

Thanks a lot for the compliment...I'll relay it to Bob .

The tires are actually 255/70r15's. I put them on the truck when I first got it and they are the same height as the 275/60r15's, just a tad narrower. They would have worked just fine with this as I still have plenty of fender clearance front and rear. But, honestly, the 255's were cheaper
