Not bad i made my own motor mounts and hooked the 47re OD up on hobbs switches do it shifted into OD by line pressure. That truely was the tricky part getting each switch "3" total to the correct pressure but when i got it right man it would haul the mail It was bored 20 over and had a 50 hp fuel plate with 120 hp stage 2 injectors and NO SILENCER RING . it was the best truck i have built so far but my 88 CC will Take over the world HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ................... a sinister laugh insues......

semi tires run 90 to 110 psi to me they will run stiff. 11r 22.5's are the tallest 22.5 tires I know you said free but dam thats a tall tire
(be about 40 / 42 inch tall)

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

Know this is a awesome looking Dually no big rims or insane drop
just low and slick



this guy was the original builder and owner for 20 years is on dieselplace

I sure miss her. It was a chic magnet till the new duallies came in to play, then I got fat and married. I'll have to find some picks when I was pulling my 28' weekend warrior fiver to the desert. Never got stuck neither..... The dude that bought it drove it from so cal to nor cal and the last i spoke to him he has to leave it at home because too manny people stiil pull him over and offer to buy it. A man can still be proud even 800 miles away
Quote:
I bouugt the 81 Dually on my 21st birthday 1987. It was beat up a little. The paint and body took 6-months and nearly $10K in 1989. My old buddy Dave W. at Fabtech notched the frame just a little and in installed air bags. I also used it to tow a 28' Weekend Warrior, had a custom goosneck hitch for my truck only. Interior was OK, just ran out of money and had to move on. The engine compartment also wasn't finished. It was just a sunday driver for the last 10 years.

Enjoy, I sure miss that truck. Chicks Dug It!

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.
