Hey guys, just thinking about the next step I'd like to do with my short bed 65. I'd really love to throw a 12v in the ol girl. So I guess the question would be... Where do I start?!?! Do you guys think it would be easier/ better the get a cummins, shorten the frame, and set my body on it? Or figure out a way to stuff the cummins in my beefed up 1500 frame? If there's other threads in here about this, I'd love to see them. Or if someone has done it, I'll take any thoughts and info I can get!
Thanks guys!
Nate.
