Question Hub Caps

I noticed some of you guys are running the bullet caps (Shannon Caps) on smoothies. Where can I find a set online........been looking on ebay, etc. Most people sell the ones for rally wheels, not "smoothies". Looking for the ones that fit 15" smoothies.

Checked Coker, they have them...........but only available in the 7" backing for rally wheel sizes 17"-18" wheels. Still looking around for the correct ones that fit 15" steelies of the "smoothie" style. It just shocks me how hard these are to find with how popular they have gotten on vehicles? weird.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

Yea. When I bought my truck I only had a cab, front fenders and title so I used a s10 frame. The EZ kit has saved me a lot of time and with my schedule, over 60hrs a week, it was definitely worth it. My build thread is on the S10 forum.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

They are original stromberg 97s with an edlebrock intake and 4" aluminum risers. Not sure how those will work but they look cool and the guy that made them had the same setup on his car.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

Thanks.

-s10 chassis
-ford 8.8 in a triangulated four link with RE-8 bags
-stock front lower arms dehumped and tubular uppers with RE-7 bags

We built it for my Dad and he rarely has it at the ride height shown in the image. Here is it when I helped him take a load of construction trash to the local dump.
