Wheel trouble...
What a crock of ****. Last friday I try to put the new ram wheels on my truck and discount tire proceeds to tell me that they don't fit. I guess I need about a 1" wheel spacer because the spindles stick out too far. Anybody know somewhere in town to get some?

Which side of the road is it on when going north? Probably take 69 to M-15 and head north. About how far up do I go on M-15?

I'm gonna head up there tomorrow, thanks.
Took a better look at them tonight, it looks like they're about a 1/2" off. What sucks though is if I get a 1/2" spacer the bearing dust cap will still stick out through the wheel cap.

Just let the Super Truck wait a couple more fridged and cold days and then you can work on it day in and out.

Well, got 'em on yesterday afternoon with some 1/2" spacers. The dust cap in the front sticks out a little, but not noticable if you're not looking right at it. I'll make some new center caps when I get the chance. They're looking pretty pimp, I'll post up some pics soon.

Sweet, I'll take it. I think he's got some clear corners and some ball joints too. I'll take those as well.
