Isuzu pickup race truck build.

HIT THE LAST PAGE FOR SERIOUS UPDATES






I was lurking the stanced trucks thread for a while and had to make a profile of my own, so this is my first post. I have a 92 Isuzu pickup, dropped on leafs and blocks. The cab/frame are notched. I picked up some 15x9 wheels and I was trying to figure out what tire size to go with. I only want a slight amount of stretch. Would 215/60 be alright for that? Or any other suggestions? This is where I'm at right now. I need to get other pictures.








Started out something like this:



Then got some new wheels for it. 16x7 (weeaaaak)



Someone rear ended me, so I picked up a new bed.



With the money I got the paint job. In time I want to save up and bag it, since the frame and cab are notched already, but that's down the road. Plus static is pretty fun. When I scraped with my girlfriend at first she's like "isn't that like, bad for it?" Haha, I just hope to learn a few things on here from others with stanced trucks and cars!

Looks promising! I wanna see the new wheels

[Brimmy]

Good stuff dude! Will look awesome on those low offset wheels. I love the shape of these trucks.

Check out willtheyfit.com to calculate stretc and poke and what not

I think I'm going with a 225/50 on the truck. I'll pick those up when my current tires wear out. I'll also try to get some recent pictures of the truck with all of the drop.

195/50/15s will give you a decent amount of stretch or go with 205/50/15. Nice Isuzu btw, my first minitruck was an Isuzu and have a soft spot for them.

[Isuzupickup]

Thank you, your hardbody made me want some width to my rims. It seems like 195 is a lot of stretch though. I only want very slight stretch.

dude, this is awesome, I need to see those wheels! stay static and drift this bitch!

I wanted to do coilovers all around and a 4 link in the rear, but I need a different motor to really get this truck going. My Isuzu 2.3 Weber carb'd isn't much for speed at all, although I'd love a swap. Just not great at fabwork myself yet.

Tires are on the way. Falkens for 312, not bad! Can't wait. And in a couple weeks I'm going to pick up a 2.6 junkyard block and throw my 2.3 head on there for a frankenstein swap to try to keep up with traffic.

Do the rodeo front end conversion... Will clean it up considerably

Seriously who farted

[Isuzupickup]

I've though about that. Reuters plent of rodeos at my local junkyard. That's on my never ending list of mods.

[hinrichs]

cant wait to see more of this

nice to see a Pup on the road, not a lotta them out there. I have an 87 trooper that's gone the opposite way (lifted) and always like seeing anything Isuzu.

I also agree with that earlier guy 195/50 or 205/50 will give you a nice stretch and still enough sidewall to ride ok and not be looking like a rubber band

This is my second all-time favorite mini truck. Have fun with it and post lots of updates!
