275/60/15 8" wheel backspace?

I have a 95 short bed 1500 that needs a lot of work. It has newer 275/60 15s in the rear. One in front wheel is cracked. The 10" rear wheels are in good shape but the wrong offset by a long shot, so they rub at times. I have found some steel 5x5 15x8 wheels with a 4-1/4 back spacing reasonable...

95 GMC C1500 with L29 454 and 4l80e

I purchased this today. Its got a lot of minor to medium bugs, but the price was right and I figured I might like the truck with a bit of TLC. Its a V6 manual truck that someone has dropped a 454 L29 and 4l80e but a lot of it is sloppy. One of my biggest complaints is they swapped in an auto...

1996 C2500 Dyno Towing Truck

I thought I would post my newest vehicle, a 1996 L29 C2500 with the 4.10 ratio diff. Low mileage examples are all over here in Oregon, but this one was the closest to me so I drove an hour and a half with a friend a few weeks ago and picked it up for a fair price. Its only got 110,000 on it. I...
