The 1978 Stepside build is complete, but not done. here's a walk around giving some explanation and talking about future channel plans. enjoy and stay tuned for more Squarebody content!
Absolutely love those wheels for sure!! I have two sets of 16”x10” 8x6.5. Bolt pattern!!! One set has a set of 39” boogers on them and are on my 1969 Chevy 1Ton 4x4 and the other set has a set of 35”x12.5 BFG MT and they are the good older tread pattern that wore like iron!!! They are a brand new set of rubber!!! Those shoes are on a 1981 GMC 1Ton 4x4 those two body style trucks are definitely my two favorite styles!!! That step side is definitely a beautiful truck for sure!!! Plus my favorite colors are a two tone blue and white or I’d do an all white in like a Perl white color!!! I absolutely love the roll bar also!!! I have a triple roll bar in my 1969 Chevy 1Ton and it’s color is a factory like turquoise/blue!! I had thought that someone had done a custom paint job on it but found out that it was a factory color!! I was going to paint it white but after I found out it was a factory color and I have never seen another one like it before I’m going to repaint it the same color!! It actually a really nice blue but faded really bad!!!!
It’s the only way to go with these straight axle Chevys . A friend of mine had a 78 basically like yours except a total of 23 inches of lift 44s and 15 inch word wheels. We made our own steering system with the 2 Wheel Dr. sector fear. Do you have a real nice truck.
That sounds great
Great looking truck

Beautiful truck
Excellent job
Those wheels are perfect for that square body! They're so hard to find, especially with the eight bolt pattern.
Love yer truck!!!
Great job!
Sweet ole Square Body!
How would you compare the drivability of the crossover steering compared to the stock setup on the highway at speeds?
