Does anyone have a GMC 4000?

[Rustbucket]

Anyone got a 4000 series truck? I'm trying to figure out a couple of things...

[6066gmcguy]

My Truck is smaller, a 3500, but they are pretty much the same. the 3500 is the smallest o fthe big trucks.

What are you havin trouble figuring???

Hi Jolly,

How many lugs are your front wheels? Do you think they're the same bolt pattern as a '61 Chevy Viking? I haven't seen the truck yet and I need to bring a wheel for it...

Also do you know the width of the truck at the outside of the tires?

Thanks,
Pat

A picture would help, they could be Dayton type spoke hubs with nuts and spacers for a separate wheel, or they could be a 10 lug Bud disc wheel with lug nuts......a picture would make it a lot easier to figure out......Kieth

This is the only one I have, hard to see with the grass but it looks like 5 lug

Most of the smaller Big Trucks have the 5/10 pattern, there is 10 holes in the wheels and 10 lugs on the rear, but only 5 lugs on the front. I just put wheels off my 1960 Viing 60 on the front of my 3500 GMC. see my Rescue Squad post in the build section for photos.

Your truck width will vary based on tires, year of truck and model, the 60-62 torsion bar truck are wider at the front tires then the newer 63-66 trucks. it should be 88" to 91".

Thanks Jolly, that helps a lot. Hopefully everything will go smooth getting it home.

my 65 L4000 is about 94" outside to outside of rear 9.00x20 tires and my front is about 88" inches outside the lug studs.
