Absolutely perfect!

Hey Kyle, what size wheels and tires are on Elwood? I skimmed the thread again and didn't see it, so I'm sorry if I missed it.

mcbassin · 06-20-2016, 10:49 AM

Awesome work as always Kyle! Super clean

Bennett68C10 · 06-20-2016, 10:52 AM

This truck turned out amazing! Awesome work Kyle

slowcpe · 06-20-2016, 01:13 PM

I LOVE this truck

boostedc10 · 06-20-2016, 02:42 PM

Kyle where else did you have issues with the super slammed wheel wells? I finally got my passenger side fit but want to make sure I don't have any of the issues you had. Curt told me they made a few we changes based on issues you had but I want to double check. Thanks!

Jason7121 · 06-20-2016, 03:46 PM

What wiring harness was used for interior and exterior?

I don't think I ever posted it Duane. It's got 20x8.5 with a 245/35/20 and a 22x12 rear with a 315/35/22

It's was mainly the arch and not sitting square to the fender.. He tried telling me to use ratchet straps but that wasn't going to fly.. It cut the tubs completely apart and re glassed everything.. I didn't want any stress at all on the tubs due to they need body work and paint and did not want any cracks which would of happened if I would have ratchet strapped them into place like he wanted.. Also you will have to cut the hood edges back to clear the tubs. Hope this helps some.

Thanks for the details Kyle, I appreciate it. I noticed the hood interference on my 67 hood and it looks like quite a bit has to be trimmed. Not sure I want to spend that much time on these things to make them work, when I have a ton of other things I should be working on.

Hey Kyle, what radiator are you running on this truck? I didnt see it mentioned. I like how both hoses route to the passenger side.

It's a griffin for LS swapped trucks.. Great radiator Ive used it on all the LS swaps I've done.
