U should really get that thing running good and post another vid to show how good it runs, like this,

Its a 460 out of a camper special, once i get some time ill do a full tuneup and get some video of it. Even running a bit off it still puts you back in the seat.

Where's your fourth light on your roll bar? Lol.

Time for beadlocks eh? :P Did you have a spare for that? I have a fifth 37" tire but I have no wheel on it. The closest thing I could use as a spare around my place is a bald 31" tire thats half the width of my 37's lol.

Somtimes they stay on kind of well, and other times they pop right off.
I think a good swift kick can get them to come off.
Anyone that has run a 16.5 knows how they come off. The ones I have run have stayed on fairly well, but have come off. They almost always do.

I always wheel with two full size spares....you have to with these rims. Usually it's a rut that I'm trying to fight that does it. Although it has only happened twice in 31 years

ever think of running a bead of weld around the rim to help hold the tire on? it would act like that lip on the smaller wheels..

I don't really like the older fords. Anything earlier than a 70.

That's funny, I don't like trucks newer then 79. Since we're being honest.

"Anything" earlier than a 70???? The body style from 67 to 72 was the same. A 67, 68, 69 would be earler than a 70, and would be the same truck as a 71 or 72. These are bumpsides. Hmmmm.

For me, every truck has its own character, and each has a place. Cant beat old iron!
Fortunaltely for the older trucks, not much has to be changed.
