I like how you run a tire with a little more sidewall than most. Im trying to figure out what I'm going to run. I just wonder how the rears would fit with a step side bed. I'm tubbing it so the inside wont be a problem but I want to get the dippiest dish I can with the earl narrow rear and not have to worry about them hitting my fenders

Yeah, I don't like rubberbands, . I'm not sure on the stepsides as far as the max dish. PM Buck68, I used to have a 68 stepside and can probably give you some good info.

True Dat!!! Well, I'm not sure if this is the right truck, but I did make some more progress last night, . I put the front clip back on to finish up some stuff. Hopefully it will only have to come off one more time.....

Currently working on installing the Hill's inner front fenders. No noteworthy pictures yet, mainly trimming and fitting. I'm getting some great advice from N2BILLET, which is helping immensely on getting them installed. I should have some good pictures by the weekend.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: Project "Shifted"
Is a template not included with the tubs? Were your inners previously trimmed?

The tubs do come with a template. After looking at Tiffany and talking to Keith, I decided use his method, as it cleans up the fenders. PM returned.

I try to get a little something done every day, even if it's minor. So yesterday I finished up the rear brake lines and the fuel line connections in the rear.
