new guy
 

hey guys, not really new to Fbody crowd, but am working on a current project that will be using various F body parts, and looking to gather/gain some knowledge. Main thing I am looking into is stock 93-02 steel wheels. Seeing if anybody has the dimensions/offset etc;, maybe even one laying around that I can borrow for a few days for mock up, see if they'll even work. Thanks alot

P.S. yes i do mean the ugly ass black/silver steel wheels that they use hub caps to hide

can't help with the info, but welcome to the board.

:)

:stupid:
:welcome:

welcome to the site. Hopefully someone will be able to help you out. :)

welcome...ive got 2 with drag radials mounted on em...shoot me a pm or catch me on aim at ihatericer5hit so we can discuss what you need

Welcome!

Welcome to the club!

welcome where you from?

hio

Howdy hey.

welcome

Home is outside Sleazside Heights, little town Ortley Beach, but right now I'm stuck in the ******** that in New Brunswick finishing up a mechanical engineering degree

thanks j0n, your local too, perfect, I'll see if I can't catch you.

hello!

welcome!

hey guys, ran into j0n last week at the grease trucks, was kind enough to let me check out his steelies, take a quick look before I had to run and feed the starving (read cranky) girlfriend, wanted to say thanks to J0n, and if any of you have a set your wiling to sell off. message me. Thanks again

ohhhh... so YOU'RE the reason j0n had to put an ugly dirty ass wheel in the back of my super-clean-just-picked-up-that-day camaro... :ban:


j/k... glad to have ya. there's quite a few of us Rutgers folk milling around here. me being one of them.

wait, were you the dude outside of Firkin Tavern Satuday that I talked to?

no he was not...we met at the grease trucks numbnuts...and to charlie i cannot wait to see that truck get underway. Best of luck to you with it!

You didn't have to be so nice about it ....

Might have been me. I was the guy in the GP picking up the T-56.

...... i seem to recall you just got rid of a t-56. is the project taken off of hold?

I screwed up in planning. I want to keep my mechanical clutch linkage which (according to McLeod) requires an LS1 T-56, an adapter plate and an intermediate plate. I didn't figure that out until after I sold that one to you. The input shaft in the LT1 unit is too short for what I want to do. Once I get the parts in from McLeod and test fit everything I'm going to sell off the LT1 unit (someone PM'd me about it).

nope, nobody's met me before, and don't own an F-body, but sure most of you guys can appreciate what I'm building.. little background.....

Mechanical engineering major at rutgers, building cars/trucks since I was about 14, and they all had a something "different" about them, long story short, got sick of the lifted trucks/ fast cars (the one I build every year will out handle/brake/and accelerate 95% of the **** on the road), so wanted something different

the formula - 1989 GMC S15 4x4 standard cab, long bed pick up, bravada front differential, and all wheel drive transfer case, 12" F-body front brakes, and a ZR-2 disc brake limited slip rear axle, 5.3 liter gen 3 and 4L60E= about 325 hp, 20+ mpg highway, all wheel drive truck, but let's be honest first gen S-10's aren't the prettiest thing on the road, got the solution to that too.....

1949 GMC 1/2 ton pick up cab and bed will be transfered over. so think 60 yr old "shop truck" V8 awd, grand father to the syclone/typhoon... actually might name her hurricane.

So whose got a set of F-body front brakes laying around and a set of those steelies so this pile can keep growing for the build
