Glad you're OK and glad the truck is too.
I broke an axle on my 46 at about 65 on a 4-lane road (it's a long story). It was a wild ride.Last edited by Hotrod46; 06-05-2017 at 08:37 AM.

I'm glad to hear you all are alright and there was no real damage. Usually it's not the steel wheels giving fits. I have spacers on the front of my 72 and when I first started driving it a lot every new wobble in a road had me leery about if I re checked the spacers or not.

Thanks a lot guys, I'm feeling more confident about the green paint
. Sorry for lack of comments and updates. I've been getting to bed in the am instead of the pm lately.

The wheels do look nice on that truck. You did a great job on it. Now you gotta drive the wheels off it!

Those wheels look great, I like the stance too, not to low, not to high, that's what I'm going for on my truck.
