Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
That's still col as heck even if you didn't do it! I don't think I have the patience to do it personally. I'd go broke on ruined paint.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Yeah the original plan was to leave it alone as a long box but long box trucks have always looked funny to me unless there a dually but I ha a dually project an that went away. I also thought about just taking 10" ish out of the front of the long box ...again just didn't want the extra work

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
I agree, I originally wanted a duramax for my truck the cost was prohibitive. Then one morning I was strolling through the local craigslist and to my surprise there was a half parted out 93 dodge with 90k on the odo that still had axles and more importantly the cummins..$800 it was at my house. After selling everything else I ended up making a profit, and getting the engine.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
I'm with you guys. I have wanted to do a Dmax swap for a while, but I never seem to find any affordable. And I have plenty of cummins parts, so why switch up?
