And I'm looking forward to front flares that fit properly. | | | Re: 85 Dodge "Root Beer" | Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 7,662 Likes: 2 carpal tunnel | carpal tunnel Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 7,662 Likes: 2 | You can take the man out of the conversion van but you can't take thoe conversion van out og the man.......

Saturday got the trans. pulled and replaced the front pump seal and rear housing seal and got it back together. Next is double-check everything and get the new exhaust installed.
After that..check the brakes and replace the upper ball joints.

I think dodge vans look just as good with 8 inch wheels and no flares as they do with flares and bigger tires and more backspacing.
I go to Truck-ins. How about you?

I HAD to get new tires stat as the old ones were dryrotted. Hopefully I will upgrade to some new wheels(7" front/8" rear) with 255/60R15 on the front and 275/60R15 on the rear.
