yeah buddy!

you're truck would be so perfect with a couple more inches of lift in the rear and leveling out the front to match the rear.

I think it looks great the way it is. + you've already done a nice fender shave to clear the rubber. Well done. I have 37"s on stock suspension height with the '72 as well. It drives great on the highway and does great off road for what it is.

yeah I think it looks unreal as-is too. I'm just a fan of trucks being level. I don't like a 4x4 as much if the front sits a couple inches lower than the rear.

Thanks Penguinman! No stack yet, will have to wait tell this summer when the twins find their way under the hood....I hate doing things twice, so I'd rather wait tell I have the bottom turbo mounted, than I run exhaust for the stack.

Appreciate the enthusiasm Keran! Haha, mildly sinister... I like that! Still a little bit of work in detailing to get it a little more sinister as well. Once the weather permits I will be going over the truck with some reduced bedliner like I used for the grill to do a few more sections of the truck. Like around the taillights and the section underneath the door handles. Still have to get around to smoking my taillights and front turn signals and get some tint on my windows. That should complete the "very" sinister looks!

Well I wont be lifting the rear any, but I will definitely be leveling the front of the truck. Can't say I really like the raked forward look of the truck right now either, and down the road there will be helper bags in the rear to keep it level when I throw a trailer on, so I'm not worried about that.

Cheers! Do you have any pictures of your 72 PapeCAT? Highway driving is a little sketchy at the moment for me with these 37's. Mostly because the steering box mount is now cracked because of the weight of the tires, I have to brace the frame and do crossover steering very soon. Nobody gets to drive my truck as a result!! Which is probably better off anyways

I sold my winter beater today. Hopefully I have a bead on a better one, for about the same price.

Yeah, tint those windows and your truck is going to look downright evil!

Maybe wash it and take off those goofy steering stabilizers, too.

Oh dang...he said it!

I keed, I keed!

KD93

Speaking of evil... Looks to durn cold for me to get out of the truck, so I'm glad you did John! Great pic!

MoPowa

Hahaha! Well what if I paint them silver to match the truck, can I keep them than?

This is dads 90 it's originally a califirnia truck original paint but we are soon to repaint


this is my buddies truck I posted earlier in my dyno videos this is it's normal life haha


Then of coarse here is my 92 p-pump rig again for any that didn't see in my thread.

Subliminal

If you can explain away the whole band-aid stigma that is attached to them, then yes...as long as you paint them silver.

MoPowa

No explanation, that is exactly what they are for at the moment. Will have to wait tell summer when I can reinforce the frame and do cross over steering. Maybe when that's done I won't even paint them, I'll just take them off.

Subliminal

Wooo wooo!

I was kidding though...your truck looks great.

MoPowa

Of course! Trust me no offense was taken!
