let us know how those match up. i have the same style rims (early 80's camaro 16x8's) and was thinking of a similar tire... interested in what rubs and what not

Ok got my pics up from the repairs friday:
went from this
to this (seat covers are to catch grease on the drive home yo)
to this
like i said i was a cheap *** and paid the price when I had to skin out my entire door of ALL components to put into the new one (except the glass and power motor). it was time consuming to say the least...
here is my new sway bar set up (note the crappy red garbage instead of the blue moog i wanted so i would not have to pay an additional $8 s&h... BOO!
and the single most important replacement part for my truck, EVER...
And here is a good shot of my surprise, everything leaks find after yanking my skid plate

Curtis if it's any consolation mine looks just like yours underneath. My oil cooler and front main seal are leaking. Thats a summer time job as its too cold to work outside.

funny thing: my oil lines were tip top a few months back when i had my oil filter adapter housing replaced because it was cracked in like 4 places...
now i'm pushing 10w30 with 1 quart lucas stabalizer.... i think the jump in viscosity put too much strain on the lines and they gave up the good fight.

if those are the lines going back to the pan (which they look like they are) you know you're gonna have to pick that engine up a little. when i did mine the old lines hit pulling from the front of the blazer. im not sure what it was but the only way we could get it was to use a screw jack and loosen the motor mounts. gl
