Wow that is crazy!

New Wheels 22.5 Alcoa's. Tires mounted

New shoes day!

Started taking the bed apart to make it easier for me to box the frame. Getting ready to remove rear axle and install the Dana 80 dually. I'm going to be selling the original 1934 wheels and brand new tires however I just dont know what they are worth. Almost imposible to find them.

Have a quick question. I'm going to be running Dually 22.5 alcoas with 255/70/21.5 tires. Should I run steer style up front and rear? Or Steer style tires up front and more aggressive in rear. Or aggressive all around? Thanks for the help! I'm debating between looks and also don't know if the...

Well I ordered a set of wheel adapters to go from 8 lug to 10 lug however I was scamed and lost 500.00. Sucks as I'm on limited income being a disabled vet. I guess hard lesson learned. He sent me an invoice in paypal that said Dodge Dually Adaptors. I payed the money and some how it was changed...

Way cool!

Old Iron I kinda like that Idea!!!! Dr Crankenstein Love it may have to steal that one from you also if you don't mind... I know it isn't much but did the other side. So it is functionable and safe. Will do number 58 on docs list at a later date....

Well I started to box in the ends just not sure I like how the back mount looks. Trying to figure out a way to dress it up a bit. I know it needs cleaning up. I'm just talking about the whole mount over all. Maybe it will look fine once the whole frame is black and finished. I can't box in the...

Thanks again for all the info and ideas!!!!!!The rears are not split rims, the fronts are not split rims but have the ring in them. I think I'm just going to run modern wheels and tires and sell the old wheels and tires. Thought I would update you guys on what I have done. I needed to extend...
