My 82(start over)Build

I have a Now-Till I'm gone payment plan that we can set up

 

Nice truck. When are you gonna bring it out?

 

Hopefully by mid summer

 

Nice pickup! I recommend TG 3" if you go that route. I have TG 4" front and rear on my 85 and want to lower it an 1" or 2. It's nice having the front axle pushed forward to keep bigger tires out of the firewall.

Chevy 63's are a good cheap choice for the rear, should be easy to level with the front TG 3" springs.

 

Thanks for the input brother.(Nice Runner) TG recommed the 4" or 5" unless I downsized tires.I like the TG 3".

 

Well it depends how much body you wanna cut. I assume since you plan to get duals that you will do some rock crawling. For that you want to stay low. I'm running the 4" w/ 37's and huge wheel offset. I have trimmed the rear edge of the front fenders and pounded the pinch weld flat. If you don't mind doing that, I suggest 3". Of course you could get 4" and take a leaf out if it doesn't settle where you like it.

 

what I'm thinking is TG 3" with 35/12.5's, not too sure the 36's are going to work with bed once it's lowered,the way it sits now if I were to do any flexing it would rip of the bed sides off.bed was made to fit 10" to 12" max

 

Heck yea bro! Glad to see this build thread started, can't wait to see the progress and if you need help, is be more than glad to lend a hand

 

RT Brother
