    Air ride conversion/frame stretch

    Nope not your fault, you need a special tool the put those in, I hate them myself, I use a standard CR seal, put a block of wood across it, and WHACK, thats all there is to it. Check that the breather is clear, a plugged up breather will puke a seal in a hurry.

    They are pretty much an antique engine, haven't been used in anything in over 10 years, and even back in the day they were nothing to brag about. Basically you will have to find that one person who is looking for one. Dollar amount would be pretty low

    EXCELLENT! Looks real good, bet its a pleasure to operate compared to the Ford. Although my KW is not as tall inside as the Freightliner it's plenty comfortable, I KNOW you will be much more comfortable, both driving and resting. Seen a guy with a white T600 KW set up almost the same way on...

    Just curious, whats the bumper to bumper length? And the length from the back of sleeper to the tail end. Seeing it out of the shop, it doesn't look quite as long as the Ford,.......... at least from here....... Looks real good, should really do the job nicely.

    Some pretty interesting specs on that truck, small engine, ultra light, tag axle, what kind of fleet did it come out of? What was it used for? Being from "up north" the only thing that bugs me is the aluminum frame, they usually don't stand up to the winter time "mixture" that they use up...

    379 Pete daycab weight

    Just a gutted cab? My guess would be under 1000 pounds,or right around there, it is all aluminum including the doors, and floors. Call the local Pete dealer, the parts guy should be able to give you an exact figure.
