nice job on the truck man!

 

Scored some rims and tires of craigslist for $300



Coming of a 2004 Ram, will pick them up tonight!

 

Update:
Babys got new shoes!!

270x70x17



What they would look like with them on, Body would be 2 inches higher.


I would put them on tonight, but as always when I want to have fun, it starts to rain. Also we just got a tornado watch.. fun! When I need a bug out vehicle, its not quite ready!

 

wheels look sick man ! going to look good !

 

it looks great so far.

 

Nice wheels man.
Seems like a good deal too, they have good tires.
Did they come with center caps?

 

sweet find soon this truck will be running and looking great

 

Center caps and lugnuts.

Oh yeah Im getting excited now.

 

Update:

Clean the disc breaks up.

Before:



After:



With her new shoes now on:




She sits about 2" taller now, starting to get there, looks good too!

I couldnt use the center caps, they were from a 4x4 and didnt allow for the front spindle.
I tired to fix the Indicator on the passenger side only to find it didnt have the clips for it to connect to the housing unit, Looks like it might have broken off. I will take the housing into autozone tomorrow and see if they have one that connects to this unit.

Fixed the AC today, apparently it was out, filled with 1 can and it is now flowing cool air in the cabin!

Replaced the PVC valve, and now the vacuum is better and so is the idle, thanks to the help from the brother in law Tim from TN who came up for the weekend on a different project and helped me when he was done there.

Things Im not looking forward to doing:

Complete suspension bushing replacement
Complete steering linkage bushing replacement
Balljoint replacements on both upper and lower A-Arms on both sides.

I guess you could say, the project continues

 

looking nice ! ! does the tires rub up front ?
