What kind of camera do you use?

I'm thinking one of those cardboard box/pinhole camera's we used to make in school (in the 1970's). ;)

 

:D

 

BTW, looks nice. :cheers:

:cheers: sweet 16's are cool jamminz.gif I can have 16" wheels other wise i know i'll be mounting up a set of load range E's in an Mud tread :thumbsup:

 

Heavier the ply rating on the lighter the truck the slower the tires wear ;) a Load range C 15" MT will last prolly 30-40K ish miles on this light truck just imagine how long i could get out a commercial traction tire in a load range E or 16's jamminz.gif ?

:bowdown: I'd buy E range tires for my MJ jamminz.gif But best i could find was C's for 15" wheels :dunno: they seem plenty stiff tho 35psi in front and 45psi in rear :cheers:

 

but i really hate buying AT :fs1: type tires, I'm an MT or Traction tread type of guy if they don't howl or whine i won't put them on any of my truck's :D :thumbsup:

 

Now for my Car's smooth stealthy and silent is the name of the game . . . well except for when it comes to Camshafts and exhaust's ;) I can't help it i love loudness in my toy's :thumbsup:

Before:

AMC-150 I4, AX-4 4spd manual, D35 with 3.73's and 235/75R15 tires.

 

After:

AMC-290 V8, T-5 5spd manual, AMC-20 with 4.11's and 235/75R15 tires.

 

I like how it sit's and looks on them 235's so those will stay tho the truck might sit a bit higher in the front a possibly the rear too . . .

 

I'm going with a 1.75" front spring spacer kit for the extra weight of the V-8 so it more then likely sit higher the rear will be getting a set of helper spring's them 1 leaf add on's for each side a long with the coil spring that fits over the rear shocks may get added to . . . nothing set in stone its tentative depending on how things sit squish and hold a load jamminz.gif

 

The V-8 tho small dose weigh a bit more then the I-4 and i do believe the T-5 is slightly heavier then the AX-4 also, plus i am going to a fuel tank in the bed not sure what it weight's in at but i'm guessing it holds about 30ish gallons . . .

 

New fuel tank:

 

The Studebaker M275er is going to duel tank's, So rather then toss that tank out and my MJ needing a tank any how i figured i would mount that tank in the bed behind the cab ;) solving both issues jamminz.gif
