Now I am beginning to hate the plastic fan blades on the engine fan. Lost a 2nd fan yesterday and it took out the radiator. Limped it into Goodland Kansas and fortunately the Oreilly auto was a warehouse store. Got a new raditaor and fan. Lost 3 hours of time.
Dodge Intrepid electric fan swap, one of the best mods I've done to the 'ol girl
nice job on the back-up lights,up-north we just just wait for rust to make the holes..LOL..,
thanks
lol mine is originally from Tennessee and it shows it in some spots, there's some rust on that bumper where a trailer ball would go and a little starting to pop up on the driver's side rocker...
I'm working on a spare tire carrier for my truck that will mount to the back and fold down when I need access to the bed. It's still a work in progress but you can get the gist of it from the picture.
Swapped street rubbers on my Camaro 16"s to something a little wider so the truck doesn't look so demasculinized when I'm running them instead of my mud terrains lol. They ride buttery smooth compared to the MT's, but they're just meant to be my highway set. Taking the 'ol girl for a little trip this coming up weekend
What year Camaro are the rims off of? Did you have to use spacers or anything?

I'm interested to see... I've seen some put on the zr2 tire carrier.
I'd seen that last picture of the truck with a Blazer carrier before and I didn't care for it. For one the sheet metal is so thin on these trucks even with a bolster inside. When it's unlatched that's a lot of weight dangling out in space. I weighed a stock tire and rim for mine and it was about 80 lbs.. Another thing I didn't like was that it put the tire in my line of sight when looking out the rear view mirror. I also want to incorporate a high lift jack onto my carrier. Having a way to remove it quickly and easily was also something I want. I didn't want to just mount a tire carrier directly to the tailgate either. My next revision will be to make it adjustable so it will adapt to any size tire but that will come at a later date.
