Just a few shots of the front wheels. I'd like to see how they look with the whole truck in the pics. I love those wheels.

I forgot to mention tranny went on. Built 4l80 with jakes components,billet input shaft, b&m deep oil pan and rossler t-brake. Went with a circle d converter multidisc with the estator upgrade. Also put in a circle d flexplate just to be on the safe side.
