New here but need ideas. Found a super straight 48 loadmaster coe. I really can't believe it's so solid and all there. I think it's at least a 2 ton, 22 springs on rear. I'm going to build a duelly pick up
The frame is like new and I think I'd like to rebuild with modern suspension. It currently has a 307 motor, but would like to power with diesel. I've read a lot about using a modern perhaps 1 ton donor and am leaning that way since going to need rear, front, and power anyway. Any thoughts?
