i think your gonna need some bigger meats, how about 2.2 crushers converted to 1.55, they would be heaps fat and look sick, anyway good luck with the build |

mistake on the rock crushers,they are 1.9.so they will be cut down to 1.5. Quote:
yeah they do look good.was going to use the landies,but i will have to wait and get some more $ in paypal so that i can get some 12mm hexes for them.so i will run the black 1.5 steelies i have for now. | |||

well out of all these nip parts.found the morrors,mirror mounts,just cant find the swivel/curved part for them.does anyone know if they come on the parts tree with mirrors? here is a pic of another truck i found and i guess you can see what part i am talking about.it is the curved part between the mount on door and the mirror itself. |
