Welcome and remember it is better to have brakes than to use your feet to stop. :D

YEah, the wheels, make the truck dont they? I got them almost just as soon as I got the truck running. and they started to rust so I just got them powder coated this spring and, DANG! I love em! I havn't seen a better wheel for these trucks yet, really they are too nice for it. SO Now I thinking I maybe better just go ahead an restore the thing, but then I would have to find a new daily driver :hmm: what can you do?

got the spindles all stripped down last night, next it's off to the blast cabnet and then I will spray some flat black on em, to keep the rust tamed down. I just did the dust sheilds this morning. I have brembo rotors and hawk pads on order for them, all I need now are new bearings, lugs, kingpins and calipers. Any suggestions on good calipers?

That is the same wheels I have on my truck but I think the old black steel wheels is the best looking for these trucks.
