I Put 42s on My 1970 Ford F250 “Gold Dust” & It Changed Everything

Today we finally switch things up on Gold Dust. My 1970 Ford F250 4x4 Cummins build. We pulled off the rare Mickey Thompson Baja Belted Twos and tested multiple wheel and tire setups to see what actually looks best on this truck. From 17x12 Canyons to 20x9 Detroit steel wheels wrapped in 42” Baja Bosses, this thing completely changed personality every time we swapped setups. Gold Dust has been with me since 2020 and has evolved into one of the wildest trucks I’ve ever owned. Sitting on a custom chassis with a 16-inch lift, Super Duty axles, Skyjacker coilovers, and a fully built 12-valve Cummins, this thing was made to drive and enjoy. We also take a closer look at the truck, the current setup, and what’s next for the future of Gold Dust and the upcoming Route 66 Mother Road Run build.
