btw, those are 39.5x15r16.5 tires with no lift.

 

[homelessduck]

How are you clearing 39's , with that much room , with no lift...?

 

[Dieselcrawler]

no idea. the front springs are stock 92 f350 dually springs with a single AAL. the rear springs are stock 83 f150 springs. took out the 4 inch factory block and put in Sky manufacturings shackle flip in. same height.

i did cut 4 inches out of the front fenders.

 

[homelessduck]

Ah, I looked at the fenders but couldn't tell that they were trimmed.

 

[Logroller]

Damn thats a nice lookin rig you have there ,, my only question is how you ganna make it street legal with the bumper height up the high

 

[Dieselcrawler]

it is legal, in pa bumper heights are 30, front and rear. the front is at 29.5

and yea i cut 4 inches out of the fenders, removed the inner fender well and am using 30 gallon plastic trashcans for my inner fenders. works great.

heres my old truck with same springs and 35's without the fenders cut

oh ok i was just wondering i know here in ohio they are ***** about how high your trucks sit , thats why i put a drop bumper on the rear of my truck

 

[Dieselcrawler]

the big thing they go for here is tires sticking out. yea mine stick out 3-4 inches. lol

 

[Logroller]

same here mine stick out about 3 inches they dont say much about that but its hard as hell on paint on the fenders ,, and im only running 33/13.50 bfg at/kos on mine .. but have to admit thats a fine lookin rig , i need to find a new 8foot bed oor bedsides for mine , so since your close keep your eyes open for me ,, no rust bed for a 93 single wheel

 

[Dieselcrawler]

i am getting a almost rust free parts truck next week, not a diesel, but 85 f250. sucks the bed is different.

 

[riotwarrior]

Now that's a sweet ride.....Looks great man nice work!

 

[Logroller]

yeah that sucks the bed lines are all different on it ,, but thanks for the thought though

the big thing they go for here is tires sticking out. yea mine stick out 3-4 inches. lol

i don't get it, other than MY PAINT *** does tires sticking out hurt???? they bust my stones with the scout, the bumpers a a scratch over legal, but OMG! you have lugs sticking out!!!!! ugh stupid pa laws, like the emissions where as long as your gas cap holds a vacuum your ready to roll.....

and how on earth do you get traction with the truck sooo short? the scouts 118" WB and 37" iroks aired down to 16 psi have a hard time finding traction.

looks cool though, we had an '84 f150 woods beater like that, my friend ripped off the rear axle smashing through trees, so we wound up cutting out the bent frame and sectioned it back together, the rear tires almost touched the cab when we flexed it!

badass rig man!

 

[JesterPgh]

Sweet rig, thanks for sharing that. The bed, that's great...I've been searching for a suitable solution for my newest truck, and that type of setup looks like it'd work well.
