Description

This is my winter beater. Although I'm starting to wonder if I should treat her that way. The wheels likely won't stay on. The current fronts may go on rear, and I have another matched set for the front.

Dodges 3 Li'l Blue Wagon Registered: June 09th 2006 12:00 pm Posts: 6501 Loc: Kitchener, Ontario, Canada	To both Ken's, yes this is the stick shift, and I plan on removing the rears, moving the fronts back, and using a set of 7's I have here, with a smaller tire for the front. Ken(Beast) my 91 will be off road for a couple years, so when it is ready to go back on, then I will buy new fronts for it. And by then I should have the rears polished up. _________________________ 1991 Dodge RamVan 318 Shorty with 2 Gullwings. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2673850 1982 Dodge Ram Maxi 1 ton http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2940482 1986 Dodge RamVan shorty, with 318 and 4spd.
