Made my decision on the wheels. Purchased a set of 17x8.5 Fifteen52 Analog HD wheels that I rattle canned and will try to give a weathered and aged look to match the truck. Not sure on tire sizes yet. Planning on 37's for now.

Stripped the interior. Been working on rust repairs on the doors and adding some welds to the pillars. Added plates for a 3 point seat belt for driver and passenger sides.

Out with the old suspension. Replaced wheel studs and installed new arms and lift. I had a few Eibach lift kits in stock so got a little impatient and threw them on. Most people, including myself had no clue they even made parts for the 80 series. I had an 80 with these springs on and they handled amazing. Im curious to see how they behave off pavement.

Eibach next to the OME stock height springs.

Mounted up to see fitment. Wheels are 17x8.5 with 0et wrapped in Toyo Open Country MTs 37x13.5x17. Looks like I got plenty of room even stuffed.
