“….Yep! Those tires are just right!......”

Thanks Gene, Yeah, that’s my thought (good thing too I’m getting tired of changing tires )

“……Looks a little lower than my truck….”

I think you’re right, at least in the front. The Mustang II front end was already on when I bought the truck, and I think it sets a bit lower than stock. I’d like to raise it a bit but that would be kind of hard without chopping the whole front end out. I haven’t measured the front but the top of my rear frame rail is now 20 ½” from the ground (down from the 23 ½” I started with). I also think part of it might be optical illusion too…..after studying mine a bit I kind of think the back of the front fender and front of the running board might be sitting a little low. I’m going to see if there is any adjustment I can make on that to raise them.

“….Mike, we need to both get our trucks on the road and go show them side by side….”


I’d like that. By the way I saw your post in the E Bay/WIW section….is your engine swap moving up a bit in priority ?
