Ok,lets start off with the question.What size tires can I fit under out trucks if I put 19.5" rims on?I don't want to lift either one.I like the looks of the bigger rims(but not getto style bigger rims-YUCK!).
Now for the rant-
I was out at the shop and I gave the supergenious(you know,the chevy man that tells me that the 7.3L is a converted gas engine,cannot be rebuilt,that sleeving egg shaps the Cylinders and that sleeving never works.....OH,and there has NEVER been a successful V8 diesel.....and the glow plugs fire the fuel like spark plugs not the compression.....:***:
)a little chore to shut him up.Tell him to find me a 1994 7.3L IDI factory Turbo engine.Well,He keeps telling me that there was about 6 engines that year that match.That the same engine was put in the trucks for 6 or 7 years,that the van and truck engines are the exact same and that the ford Vans were F series not E series.......
.Oh,and to really seal the deal....this guy is a hard core chevy guy that hates Fords because they "an worth a crap,Found on Road Dead,etc etc etc.But the fool bought his wife a KIA.....A KIA that has been in the shop more times in the past 5 months(11 times) than the Enterprise has been in it's intire life!

dumba$$ You can rebuild anything the question is, is it worth it.
I think she will be greatful enough not to spit parts at me.She has started to change her tune already.She fires right now now.She still coughs and hacks a little at start up but she fires up for me.She know I am the only one that cares about her out there.She must have talked to White Lightning while I was gone!
