Re: 72 k-10 swb
Awesome truck, would you mind taking a measurement to the top of your cab? I am building a truck with same setup and was wondering if it's gonna fit in my garage

Re: 72 k-10 swb
Truck's lookin good man, wish I could drive mine! The paint looks really good, the lift you put in is what I wanted to do with mine but I might only go like 2 or 3" since I only have 33's. How does it handle with the 35's on it?

Re: 72 k-10 swb
not to bad, just had the tires balanced this weekend. Still need to do my alignment and get my bed lined. The stereo and I-pod are in and it sounds pretty good with the 6x9's and (2) 4" in the stock location on the dash. my first car show will be the 17th of July in Emmett, Id. I def am going to add a steering stabalizer though.

Re: 72 k-10 swb
Nice looking truck.
How wide are those 35's? They fit on the 8" rallys? I may have to go buy some rallys, they really look good. |

Re: 72 k-10 swb
I think they are 8"s but not sure.
I need to update my pics as she is a little closer to being ready and the inside of bed is done. I will scan in my dyno paperwork from yesterday soon. The motor is nothing fancy and put 181 hp to the ground. Definately the best $100 I have spent. The carb is def. much better after the jetting adjustments they made. I also got a brand new 71 /72 NOS grill outer and inner a few months back yet to install, but this will for sure bethe finishing touch I have been looking for. Matt
