88GMCtruck's never ending 88 GMC build thread

I'm going to go out on a limb and say I don't like the hub caps. They need to be more unique to fit the rest of the truck.
 
Ok, sorry if this is a stupid question. But where did the dent come from in the passenger cab corner? I read through the first 3 pages and the truck didn't have it, then on page 4 it did. Ive read this thread before and cant believe i just noticed it! I must have been in a daze!

I like the caps better than nothing, just adds a finishing touch kinda thing.

I'm on the fence myself. I like the socket lugs quite a bit, they really show off the 8-lug aspect but the caps are a bit more finished and subtle. We'll see. I'll probably run them and if they don't please me swap them back.

X2 keep the caps.

How many miles does you have on the mickey Thompson atzs?

They are MTZs and they have just over 40k on them. Which is pretty good considering the amount of towing I've done with them.

Ah. That story got caught up in it's own thread or my towpig thread. I was in an unfamiliar parking lot, at night, in the snow. I hit two 4" concrete filled steel bollards protecting a telecom box that was WAY too close to the corner.

I can at least say I gave it a fair share of it's own damage. I've since replaced the door with a used one which ended up being a slightly lighter red. Still better than the dented one.
 
Just going to put this riiiiiiiiiiiiiight here. From the dunes this summer.

I'm still really on the fence here... I'll give them some time. I really need to take my canopy off. I'm tired of it.
 
Thanks guys. Front caps were easy. Dana 44 hubs were 3 1/4" while the recess of the cap where the logo was at was 3 1/2". So a hole saw worked perfectly.
