hope you got a good deal on those goodyears. guys dont normally have too good of experiences with them
very nice crew cab too! if you ever decide to sell it, let me know. i would most definately be interested for the right price.
add to my colections of 70's series..

also, not sure if your in man. or sask. but drop in at s4wda.com for a bunch of people around saskatchewan that share the same interest of offroading. i go by younggun over there.

Awesome, that`ll really perk up your ride Dusty!
Home balancing is easy too.... a run thru some real deep and sticky mud, there ya go, it`s balanced good enough!

Cool cant wait to see some pics Keeping your old ones on steelies is a great idea! I ran mudders through the wintertime once before, deadly in the snow, terrible on ice.

I'm not going to really go hard with the truck anyway, so as long as the tires get me where I need/want to be I'm happy. And when I go mall crawling, lol Two years max maybe, and it may be going up on sale. I have to decide once and for all if I'm going to do a Cummins conversion on it, 6.9/7.3 IDI or just sell it completely and go newer. I'm in Winnipeg, but I'll check the board anyway, you can't be on enough boards!! Thanks for the compliments.

You cant go wrong with throwing a 5.9 cummins in there, after ya do that it would be really affordable to drive, and watch the value of the truck shoot up!
