Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Uuuhhhmmmm......If I can drive the 68 S/C truck to work everyday, I'm thinking there's not a problem here................JUST DO IT! :metal:.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Rob is kind of hard to do when there are so many idiot drivers here in Miami, would not want to have my bucket totalled by one of them. Plus I drive a demo from work with all expenses paid I rather risk the demo :lol:

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Thats a sharp looking truck Al.
Driving Miami is not that bad, I lived there most of my life and still work there. Just got to learn how to spin them out and t-bone them into the Turnpike median.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

:lol: it is not really that bad,,,,,I know!!!:devil:

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Man that thing looks good Al!

So what's next?

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

He is tired of Black and white. He is going to work on something blue and white. Right Albert?

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Hey Al, your truck looks right on the money, what can i say thou, that stance is so close to mine it is perfect, and i know what you mean by driving it everyday, i just want to hop in mine and go, but i still have to take it easy. looks great and great work you have gotten done to her, by far one of my top trucks i like.

later James

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Well Nate I got a got of van rallies with tires so I am going to put two van rallies in the front and I am swapping two of them with 70rs/ss for two truck 8 inch for the rear. I am not doing this permanet just to change the look every now and then specially the nights that I might feel a little cocky as I am going to mout some street slicks on them...

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Nick bring that truck to Miami and I can definetly do something with it...don't you know blue is my favorite color even though both my toys are black...

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

James thank you for the great compliment on my bucket!!!!
I really appreciate it, stay tuned as I am actively looking for a 68 which I am going to buil badder and better than this one. I keep telling my self to forget it but I need something to do....reason why I am messing with wheels right now just to be tinkering with something..

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

we will need pictures of the truck with the other wheels and some burnout videos!!

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

We think alot alike, ;).

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

You can rest assured that I will post some videos of some serious rolling bun outs. Definetly picts are a must.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

That's true Rob great minds think alike.... What tires and what size are the ones mounted on those rallies. I definetly want something that sticks as I am going to do a few passes at the little 1/8th mile track near my house.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

:lol:, They are Mickey Thompson's ET Street radials, 315 60 15, mounted on an 8" rim. Even with these on, my 68 still won't hook up with the 3.08 gears. I've got a 3.73 rear with a new Auburn posi in it that I'll be putting in in the next week or so. Hopefully that will do the trick, :metal:.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
 

Uhmmm.... Increasing the ratio is only going to make that issue worse although spinning both tires will make a difference for sure. Sounds like some suspension tuning is in order.
