Of course it is. It still under the f-350. I'd love to get it and swap the tubes to make it a passenger drop for my truck but I have bigger fish to fry right now...

i talked to six states, they dont narrow anything they said that lonnie at B & L has but he didnt know if he still does, he also said AL Yennie of the old AL's 4x4 does....but only on a i want to basis. aparrently he has a small out fit behind stellars which is behind the crazy moose.

i want the axle, but i cant run a full witdh, its still my dd. any thoughts of where to get it narrowed?

Go to Pirate and get the tech to do it yourself. Its really not that hard to do. 8)

hey evan if its not a metric bolt pattern why not go with stock backspaced hummer rims?

Posted: Sat Mar 01, 2008 4:06 pm
by mr. jones
that would be sweet, i assume that the hummers are 8 lug. what do a set of thoes cost?

Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 6:31 am
by 79chevy39.5's
you can get a set of them with the hummer tires for like 400 or around 50 per rim

Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 10:41 am
by mr. jones
what size are are those rims? are they 16's or 16.5's? they are bead locks so it wouldnt matter. how big are the tires? and can i find them anywhere?

Posted: Mon Mar 03, 2008 2:25 pm
by 79chevy39.5's
16.5's internal beadlocks theyre 36's not the best tires but they get good milage outta them while you waited to get somethin else yea they can be found all over the place on pirate, nw-wheeler, craigslist and gsa auctions

When did Al close up shop / move?

Lee,

Al moved about the first of December, just off A street and 20th. He's only open by appointment. You have to call him and hopefully he'll get back to you. I've called to set up an appointment and had to leave a message....he never got back to me. If anyone is successful in setting up an appointment let me know. I have a $100 part I need to get a refund on. :(
