Nice, I like the stance.  How much drop and what size are those rims?

I like the stance too.  Do you scrape on bumps or rub on turns?

I really like your truck, but I agree, it looks better with the rallys.  Makes me think I should go back to rallys on my '86.

And here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price

It does rub in the front when I hit bumps.Ive thought about putting the rallys back on it with wider tires.Iwas also gonna buy 2 15x10s for the rear if I went that route
