    Project new tow rig, round two!

    Since I shared this thread I guess I should update it. The dt never made it into the truck. 4 years later I finally have it running again. I built a new 6.9 for it with all new parts, and reinstalled everything I had on it. Over New Years I finally put the truck back together and today it drove...

    Well....

    Unsure where it will end up. I can’t sled pull with it due to rear suspension doesn’t pass rules for street trucks. And if I go to any shows it will most likely be in a work truck, but I could tow it behind a my wreckers... lol

    Well....

    I have 4 vehicles I can choose from to drive, not counting my dodge 5500 utility body truck. Don’t need to dd it. Normally I use the Astro to dd. Hop in the f100 if I feel like raising hell. The other crewcab will soon go under the knife too

    Well....

    I no longer need it as a dually, I have other vehicles I can tow with. I want to run a 35 on it, but getting 35’s under a dually without having custom wheels made is a challenge. It will tow when I need it to, but will be fine as a srw. It started life as a srw. The second photo is with 35x12.5...

    Well....

    It made it to work. First time in 4 years this truck has drove down the road. Guess now I have no reason on why it shouldn’t be finished. Going to convert back to srw, got 4 new doors to install, finish up the interior, install the arb air locker in the rear... then paint

    Little update

    After 4 years of sitting dormant in my shop, my 85 crewcab moves on its own again. Has been a great weekend so far. Hoping to button it up tomorrow and take it for a quick ride.

    so you say near penn state, but then say only an hr from willow street... lol penn state is a little farther than an hr from conestoga diesel. As for me I will gladly look at it for you. I have been very busy this past year with a new job(50-60 hrs a week) but if we plan it out I can do it...

    Last 7.3 I killed, had 240-250 numbers in the middle 4 cyls, 320-375 on the outside 4. Lots of metal fuzz on drain plug and in filter. Bearings were perfect. Cyl walls not so much. Oval cyls don’t work well.
