Awesome photos!!!

btw what backspace are you running on those 225's?
And what's the curb weight on yours?!?

I still have to check if they fit cause mine has HD brakes..

Re: Cherubs 82 build
Beautiful, that's the stance i'm goin for on my truck, and the same wheel/tire combo, and mines an 82 (coincidence?) mine wont be identical though, ill have a few more things shaved, and it will be red. but your truck really is an inspiration and motivation for me to finish mine.

i know i'm picky, but can you by any chance fix the bent fin in the grill? it would be 100% perfect

you are correct they dont make a 5x5 dodge wheel. They are 5x5.5 and you have to use adapters to mount them.

So yours is running a lot better now? I want to take mine to get tuned when I get it back together. Did the crank relearn seem to help things out a lot?
