    Front wheels skipping in 4WD

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone would know why when I engage the 4WD system in both 4Lo and 4Hi the front wheels do not spin correctly. The front wheels lock up and leave skid marks on the road.

    Help me pick which OEM rims to go with.

    I think option 1. I think the squared off design goes better with the body style of the OBS. I was hesitant about these GMC rims but I think they work well for the body style as well.

    anyone have a green ext. cab with a black bottom?

    Man, it is your truck so def do as you wish but I think you are making a huge mistake. I have the Medium Blue Green Metalic color as well and I think the black bottom is really dated as is the tan. It is a very early 90's look. The only trucks that look good with black bottoms is red 40's trucks.

    Any camo interiors here?

    Your dash where the a/c controls are, where did you get that please? Did it delete the factory C/D player or storage bin and relocate the climate controls without having to cut? Or did you have to do some cutting. Looks great man. Sorry to thread jack.
