All the trucks have the right look to me.
Andy, that's a excellent point you just brought up, it does take a while to get used to the changes, 6 years ago 20's did absolute nothing for me, I thought they where just to big and 17's where the way to go, Well later that year I bought a truck with 20's and replaced them with 17's, "lo and behold" it didn't have the same effect so I put the 20's back on, styles just change.

Thank for the input guys!

Cool Re: C/10 dreaming ....or mix and match.

I like the bigger wheels just think the trucks you own look just right like they are.
It took me awhile to like the 17" I put on my truck several years ago.
I had 15" ralleys on it forever it seemed and it took me weeks before I didn't wonder if I screwed up.
Then I went to the 20" all around and love them. Never looked back since!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: C/10 dreaming ....or mix and match.

Rene actually I was rethinking my opinion and I think they would look best on my 71 just in case you are not happy with your results....
