Truck dies at freeway speed with no indicator of anything. Highly resembled HEI coil going bad. Instantly shut off. Could...

    Hey new friends, the new rig

    Well, ended up scoring some free wheels and tires. Off of a dodge and being after market, it looks like the backspacing is a bit less so fingers crossed they will look decent.

    alternate High beam indicator light

    strong work sir. Thank you for the picture. any chance you can load up the full image? Yes, the high beams work properly when switched on. the headlights work properly when switched on, new light so that narrows it down two the board in my opinion. I already have the extra light, just didn't...

    alternate High beam indicator light

    the floor switch functions properly. so thus, the problem is most likely the circet board as the lights have recently been replaced.

    MACHINING 16.5" DOWN TO 16"?

    Dear Santa.... After searching so many wheel options I realized I REALLY like two wheels. The wagon wheels that are currently on my truck and good ole turbines. Such a classic look. So much of a classic look that the turbines only came in 16.5" from what I can find. What are the chances that...

    Can I run 35s on the street with this setup?

    Here is my current ride. 33/12.5x16.5 Have 16” 2004 Silverado stock rims to throw on it. They sit a bit more inboard. Can I run 35s with this amount of “lift”. Actual lift unknown. I have to buy new tires and I have a lead on some “new” used 35s for a song. I’m not worried about “full...

    Help Identifying lift height

    Picked up this beast a few months ago. As seen it is sitting on 33/12.5-16.5s. I’m in the market for new tires and found a smoking deal on raptor takeoff 315/17s. Wondering if anyone can tell by the current stance the approximate lift on the truck?

    another 16.5 post

    really, whos idea was a 16.5 inch wheel? how did this come to be? "Lets go bigger Bob. I like our 16 offering but 17 is to big." I'm so curious as to how this happened! And then the tire companies went along with it. BTW, is anyone still making 16.5 inch tires? asking for a friend.

    Disc brake conversion help.

    bending lines is teadious and a headache but in the end is pretty easy. the thought of 4 fronts seems unbalanced and overbuilt in my brain. i swapped the rears on my 70 camaro and the size difference was impressive but they were balanced. im guessing the large size locks up the back pretty easy?
