I have to say though, you got a California plate on that truck, but the surroundings in the photos sure look like somewhere in the southeastern U.S. Is that front plate just for decoration?

Ouch. Hurts to look at that wrecked photo. Looks like you lost the spring hangers on the driver's side. Did you have frame damage to deal with also?Very light frame damage if any. Impact was pretty much on drivers rear tire. Broke the rear end. It took two years to get this thing back in the road.

Nice truck jptiger. I got a question for you tho. Aren't you the guy that said you put 1ton springs on it to raise the front?? And if so did you have to modify the control arm for the springs to fit or did they just slide right in??His truck is 4x4, no control arms up front, it's leaf spring and solid axle.

Rally wheels look like 8" wide, but extra deep trim??
Post by: AZ4X4SQBDY on April 25, 2017, 09:29:36 PM
It looks to me like it's a two tone silver in different shades, is that correct? Not factory but looks great, something different.
I'm finishing up my '87 and hope to make a thread here soon about it so I can appreciate what it took to get your's to look like that.

Yeah, yeah...i zoomed in on it. Truck looks great. Then again, its a cali truck...it never rains there, everyday is like 75 and sunny! Here in new england, acid water loves to sit and hide in body trim. Plus, less to deal with. I did go with the wheel arch trim though.
