98 GMC C1500 - Texas' Finest!

[Vortec Lover]

should be fine- you look like you have a lot of room up front. stock rims help too

and are you sure on the full drop on that truck? He has a body lift for sure, so maybe that is throwing you off on the front. Can you snap a pic of the front of the truck and one from the side if you don't feel too obnoxious doing it? haha

An inconspicuous shot of front end parts never hurt anyone, haha. I can try the next time I pass by that truck. It seemed like there were some extra, non OEM looking parts in there where the lower control arm mounts to the frame, I can't remember exactly now but I'll try to get you guys a shot of it.

Other things on my truck recently, put in the new 2" core radiator, and had my local shop replace my leaking brake line and change the brake fluid for $90.

I did some checking today and it seemed like I'd run into some decent frame rub if I put those 33s on without a spindle lift. Problems with fenders/bumper didn't look too bad. Its a great deal on these 33s though...

Decisions, decisions!

Don't do it! Stick with the mildly custom lifted 2wd look!

Hard to turn down some pretty good shape KM2s for $200!

I do like how it sits now though. But either way I'm buying at least 2 tires here in the next couple of months, my front ones are nearing the end of their life. Might as well get the 33s on the cheap while I'm at it, right?

I guess you could buy them, have them mounted and if they don't work, sell the wheels and tires and get new wheels and tires! Just a thought...

Ok well they're not KM2s, I mispoke. Just plain BFG MudTerrains, before the KM2s. Still waiting to check them out, but in the meantime found some pictures of a stock C1500 with 33" BFG muds

Truck looks pretty good IMO. Just hoping the frame rub isn't too bad!


BTW Scott really like how your truck came out, great stance and those tires don't look bad at all.

Ok here is the inconspicuous shot of that truck's front end.

And I can get these 5 33x12.5s for $300, 1 ProComp AT (supposedly new), 1 lightly used Remington Mud Brute, and 3 Used BFG MudTerrains.

Still gotta check them out, wanna see the manufacture date on those BFGs. What do you guys think? Yay/Nay?

Judging from the tow hook I believe that truck has a bl. Has for the tires if there's no dry rot or other visual damage sounds like a deal.

Looks like a 3 inch suspension lift as well with the drop down bracket on the LCA
