Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Hmmm, what am I missing? the 16" bump wheels I have require a large cap with 11-3/4" inside, no flange. Where'd ya get those wheels, and how big were those caps? I don't get it. :confused:

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
my 3/4 ton has a set of ford 16" steelies with the hubcap bumps. They take a very large hub cap. I would love to know what 8 hole wheel will take regular caps!

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Hi Im a newbie here but used to old trucks. My 62 K 20 Im rebuilding has 17" Hercules hdt 17's there very old. Looks to be split wheels. All trucks this era seem to be 16.5- 17.5.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
I love the stock trucks as well. At car shows people really seem to get more nostalgic about the stock set ups. However, unless there is a stock class, the bling usually gets the trophy. Mine is stock except for the edlebrock carb and air cleaner. My rubber is finally starting to crack on the ol' 16.5 steelies, so I have purchased some AR23's to brighten it up a bit. I am keeping all the stock parts that are replaced though and will refurbish and powdercoat at some point when the funds come available.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Old trucks left original just takes you back in time to a related memory.
The smell. The sound of the straight six. The sound of the rattling gearshift. For me, the smell, and the rattling 4-speed gearshift takes me back to us grandchildren all cramped in the cab with grandpa and grandma going camping. :) Posted via Mobile Device |

OK, In about 3 days I will be moving my 66 to the new frame. :metal:
Right now it is a half ton with 8 lug suspension. However, it is going on a 3/4 ton 1971 frame. Power steering, hydro-boost brakes, 5 speed overdrive, steel bed floor. Yes, I am bringing this antique at least into the latter part of the 20th century. :lol: Here is a before photo... I LOVE 3/4 ton and bigger GMC trucks |

Got some new shoes. Swapped some tires around and retired my 3 piece rims. My old tires looked like slicks!

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Gmcdeadhead,
I put those same wheels on my 66 3/4 ton GMC. On mine, the center caps don't fit the rear hubs -- they aren't deep enough. Did you do anything special to get the rear caps to fit? Thanks. Rob Posted via Mobile Device |
