My '65 got some new shoes..

Thanks to you guys on this forum for helping me select the right wheels for my project! Now she's sittin on 31x11.50x15's on 15x8 Cragar Soft 8's.

I got her running finally this weekend and just hearing that little 4 banger fire up was sweet! R)

 

Those look Purfect

 

Just right, looks great!!

 

nice shoes

 

Thanks guys. It definetly looks a little tougher now. I am thinking about a small lift shackle just to give a little more clearance...Any reccomendations on a certain brand?

Thanks.

 

Very nice! That's what I want to put on the Daughter's '70.

 

Great looking wheels!

What's the backspacing?

 

I bought these wheels from Summit Racing @ 39.95 ea.

Here is the PN# Part Number: CRR-3975855

It's listed as 4" of backspacing.

I looked for the Conn-Ferr shakles, but I haven't been able to find them. The Warrior and the Daystar both look like good alternatives though...Thanks for all the feedback. I love the new look of this Jeep. I can't wait to actually drive around the 'hood!

 

Needs 1" superlift springs and new shocks. will ride way better.

 

Standing tall, Looking good. I was looking for some early fender flares like yours, without the marker light cutouts, are they new? Also like the handle on the side of the windshield, have something similar to help my dad get in my Ramcharger. Do you know what model it came on? Is it the same shape, only shorter than the dash grab bar? Thanks

 

Sorry, I've been a little busy lately and haven't even gotten a chance to get online in the evening.

The handles on the side of the windsheild are very similar in shape to the dash grab handle. They have some type of old padding that is just like the padding on my steering wheel...it's dried out and falling off.

I could take a close-up of it if you want.

 

Looks great I love it......I have Con-fer 1 1/2 shackles on my 5 and they work very well. the ones from warrior look like a good product

 

When I get my 67 running we will have to get together here in Austin.

 

Anytime bro! I work for Fastenal here in Georgetown so let me know if you need anything that I can help you out with. E-mail me or call me anytime..512-921-6077

My A1 won't be street legal, but I'd like to see your jeeps. Keep me in the loop!

 

My junk isn't street legal yet either..but once it's actually driveable we should get together and find some trails.

Do you know anyone locally that does body work or builds cages?
