Crashtd420 Posted July 9, 2021 Report Share Posted July 9, 2021 I swear I have the same rims on my 521... never knew what that were... Probably not much help.... Quote Link to comment
Doobie Posted July 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2021 They do appear to be the same wheels, how low is your truck Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted July 9, 2021 Report Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) I'm not 100% sure up front and I'm sitting on coilovers now front and rear. In the picture I was on either 2" or 2-3/4" blocks in the rear... If my math is right now the rear should be 3" lower and the front is a little lower by 1/2" - 1 " to get that raked look... i dont have a current picture. Since the rear coilover conversion over the winter the bed has not gone back on. I'm currently refinishing it, so it's not on the truck for a current picture....

Crashtd420 Posted July 9, 2021 Report Share Posted July 9, 2021 So what's hiding under the hood with the dual side pipes....? And I obviously like the look of the rims on your truck.... Do you not want to run them? You could always get them powder coated to change it up a little... I have thought about it... maybe just the lip or just the center ... never decided....

Get rid of, or paint those ugly center caps. If the exhaust is functional paint with hi heat gray or silver. The rust is dragging down the whole truck. Clean those tires but not that shiny wet looking crap all the tuners like. Tires are black and non reflecting. Otherwise there's nothing wrong with what you have.... well, maybe 1 1/2" lower.

Doobie Posted July 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 There is nothing special under the hood (stock l20)the truck belonged to a friend of mine who put it together in the early 80’s it was parked in the mid 90’s and sat until 2019 when he died I was given the truck ,I plan on lowering it 3 inches the side pipes have been taken off I’m up in up in the air when it comes to the wheels not sure if I like the look that’s why I was looking for some input 1 Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Here's a strange question do you still have the side pipes? I would actually be interested in them to use as the stack on my truck, mostly the heat shield... yes that's my exhaust sticking out of my bed... I always wanted to do the second one like the old dodge truck the little red Express ..... possibly with an electric cutout to bypass the muffler.... Quote Link to comment
Doobie Posted July 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 I don’t have the ones that are in the pictures but I do have a new set that came with the truck Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 I'm obviously bias on the rims, I have had mine for 20 years and still like them.... But they do look a little dull against your truck..... I still think if you like the rims have them refinished to match the truck... New rims are always good too.... Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Just now, Doobie said: I don’t have the ones that are in the pictures but I do have a new set that came with the truck I'll send you a private message.... Quote Link to comment
Crashtd420 Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 You said you are having issues finding the in box for messages.... It's in the upper right hand corner, I assume your using a phone and cant see it... I cant either.... What I found was if you click on the picture of the 510 at the top... Just under the rat and wrench logo, and just behind the front wheel it will pull up the notification window... Another way is to switch from mobile to desktop view..... Quote Link to comment
BOZO Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 The Centerline Autodrags are almost as timeless as the Cragar SS. I have been on a casual search for a set ever since I bought my truck. One good thing about Autodrags is they are about as light as anything you can buy (cheaply), and lighter is better handling. I have a set of aluminum wheels on my truck that are similar to Autodrags but they have angled slots and they are lighter than my stock wheels. 2 Quote Link to comment
Chopper Jim Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 You could dismount the tires, package them up for shipping to Kingman Arizona, Attn: Chopper Jim. I will take them off your hands. Just Joking. I would clean them up or have them polished. Then put them back on your truck. Chopper Jim Quote Link to comment
