I could probably afford to drop a little weight :) I quit smoking cold turkey about two months ago after 15 years, so I gained a little, talking 10 pounds, but still gained some. But I am saving 200-300 bucks a month not smoking :)

i wonder how your trans and rear end are gonnd hold up..

what rear end do you have
I think that it will be fine, more over wondering why you are asking?
trans is a T56 with about 30K on it and the rear is 4.10 or are you talking the "posi" it is an Eaton in it, I will probably rebuild the rear entirely though before running it down the road. The height of the tire is still shorter than an SS factory tire, I ran the 315's I had on it for 3 years damn near with no problems.

Fred Goeske makes quality adapters for sure.... been running mine for about 5 years with no issues.
I ran the spacers that I sold with my widened Imp rims on my car for 3 years with out trouble, he is a great guy and knows ALOT, I think I was on the phone him for at least an hour when I ordered the spacers, some people have had issues. I guess you just have to know his personality.


Man that looks sweet! I love how wide they are!!
Thanks man, I am going to do some cutting maybe the end of the week t o see what I can do to get them under the fenders better.
