I posted in trucks, but thought some of you may want to check it out. Just got my wheels from Intro and they are excellent. Now I can finally start on the suspension!

Cool, good stuff.

This is why I added a section for trucks. Lots of cool projects going on.

Man once again that makes me want to build a blazer. I have had 3 72 2wd blazers in the past years. I was very close to doing a blazer when my wife bought me the 36. I have a very soft spot for first gen blazers and yours is looking awesome. Keep us updated.

What size wheels and tires are those? They look sweet!

Thanks for the good words everyone. I will have pics of chassis progress when I have some to show.

The wheels are 20X10 pentias with 295/45 BFG KDWII on back and 18X8 w/ 245/45 front; 4 3/4 BS on both. I thought about 20s on the front but the tires would have been "hockey pucks" for clearance and I hate that look, plus I have a soft spot for the big&little look. I have been checking out your progress on the '68 frame, looks awesome! I also come from a roundy-round background and appreciate the skookum design. You doing bags or coil overs on that?

Hopefully nobody gets insulted but I will probably borrow elements from several of the badass projects on this site in my chassis design, hope I can do them justice!
