I am the biggest fan of this truck, I love the way it looked with the 20" wheels on it. The steel rims make any truck look ghetto, like you ran out of money at the end of at the end of a project and found whatever was kicking around for rims. Thats just my opinion though, if you like em, rock em hard.

A different color for the rims for sure. Maybe some hotrod trim rings. I never cared for those particular 20's you had.

that ones kinda uncommon but I would have ditched the lockup crap for sure. it might hep save ya a tad bit of gas but I'm pretty sure I heard they were weaker then the stock th350's.

You get the torque converter with it?

This trans SHOULD be "Heavy Duty" because it was behind a diesel. and yes i did.

Also, Lockup wont be used, i just wont hook up the switch.

And they would never shine up, i hated the look of them.

I'll bet it rides a lot better too.

Silver or gunmetal grey. Astrovan trim rings are thinner, and make the wheels look deeper. Hotrod trim rings actually sit in from the wheel lip, (recessed) exposing the bead of the wheel. for a different look.

your 20s just arent a style that really goes with the style of truck (to me atleast) and i think you should leave them black
