I am looking into building my own rollpan that doubles as a bumper. Resed lights and plate. More to come as time allows. The summer has been tied up with family and the house. So it has been on the back burner.

Ok I did some searching and I think I have more questions than when I started, :shock: I read the article on swamping disc brakes but after the search I am more unsure of what I need??? Anyway I found a 71 3/4 ton 2X with a V8 (selling parts) but I am not sure what I can use and what is a waste of $...

Thanks for the info. I will look into that one.
I like the polly tanks (don't rust).

Looking at my 66 short step after looking at this mod.
So has anyone with a short step tried the mod?
What issues did you run into and what were they?
Looking under mine I can see some possible issues.

Thanks Gary

I did disc swaps on my olf FJ40 & Samurai, (a plus while wheeling through alot of water & mud) not alot of breaking differance (if any). Other than that, they are easier to maintain. But how often do you need to replace your rear shoes/pads?

OW my that is ugly

Out of the ones listed the 5.0 would be my pick.
But if I had my pick it would be a 4BT, after that I am kind of partial to my 6.

So what is the best (if their is one) offset?
As I am looking at/for rims at this point it would be a plus to know =)

Thanks

I would go for one & if you get a step side lined up I want one of those also...
If we line up close to what is needed (25) another option may be to have the other types added in.
That way the order would most likely be over the required 25 and

Thanks Gary

I miss my 4BT, kick myself every day for letting it go.
It was one sweet little motor.

No this one 8) http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/F100/100_0852.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/F100/100_0853.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/F100/100_0858.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l148/supercobrajet/F100/100_0857.jpg h...

I thought I replied to this..... owell I will now. I like the Blue fleet side, very nice. I am thinking about 17 or 18 inch rims. Mine has a straight 6, so I just want some nice looking and handling tires. We get enough rain I prefer something that does not just (or at least clear coated). Keep the ...

Not a big fan of the 700R's myself.

Is an Airstream or an Avion?
We used to have an Avion camper, it was cool but needed some work and we did not have the time or money to restore it.

I missed the car show that was in town a couple weeks ago. Been working on the house to much, trying to get done so I can enjoy some of the summer. The maintance of the wheels is an issue (to a point). If I don't like the wheel/tire combo I am not going to get it just so I don't have to clean them. ...

It worked ok, but no color, no short step, and would not let me lower it. =(
Does anyone have a collection of pictures of Slick 60's?
Or maybe people could post up pictures (don't need to be big) of thier trucks with differant rims?

Thanks for tha help

I joined this site a short time ago after I picked up a 66 short step. It has been 30 years since my last one :shock: Anyway the one I picked up is in need of tires. So I am kicking around idea's for rims and tires. Is there a place to go to view pictures of Slick 60's with (as many as possible) dif...
