wow some old faces in here today.... brian you need to just look at things like tie-rod ends and the such.. jack up both sides and move the tire and look for any unwanted movement..it is no fun to have something fall off at hiway speeds... sorry dalton i dont know much about those tire sizes.. a tape measure may help.. well the 71 f100 is back on the road and everything works just about like a new one.... now i need to clean up the shop and make a few scrap runs

 

good morning missouri.. sure is slow in here i am talking to myself.

 

Good morning RC, gonna make coffee and get the day started. I done nothing last night but sleep.

 

thats good chip.. you youngsters need your 8 hrs ... ha ha ha ha ha

 

My day is almost over with here, I have already test flown one helo and been at 10k feet doing an autorotation. Already had lunch and finishing up and gettig a plan for tomorrow.

 

Dalton I have a 99 SCSB 24V with a Daystar 2" front leveling kit, and have run 285's (32.83 tall), it came with that size when I bought it and have run 305's (34.01 tall) no problem.

Sorry I can only guess on the 315's (34.6), but the 305's had plenty of room on the back and never hit on the front. Of course I never really off road it, its my tow rig.

Where they might hit would be the back edge/cab corner of the front fender area, if you had your wheels turned just right and flexed it out.

Hit up some Dodge forum web sights I am sure you can get the experienced answer there.

And I never received a pic, resend and attach it this time and I will post it for you.

 

Good morning all. Haven't been on here as much lately. I had to drive Ol Big Red to help a neighbor see if my 88 f350 wheels would fit his 67 Chevy c30. They fit, it was just too much play in the lug holes.

 

Maybe I should make some coffee, I can't seem to get out of low gear. Lol

 

Morning missouri. Worked on my fenders some this morning. Get them done and primed later. Have to run over by st.joe later and pick up a turbo and some other parts

 

well it is official the 71 f100 is a daily driver... for today at least.. ha ha ha ha





and the most important part..

 

Very cool RC! how does the AC work?

 

jeff.. yea it does.. but my speedo is giving me trouble.. i dont wanna craw under the truck again so it may have to wait till cool weather comes back..

 

Looking sharp RC, looking sharp.
