I have upgraded two vehicles with HID lights and I could go back I would have gone straight to LED. Truth be told I bought "cheap" hid lights on eBay for both. Only ever had 1 issue, a ballast went bad. I'm just going to get to the pro's and con's. LED: + In my experience, brighter + Instantly...

It's a 1992 cab and dash... Only ever else is old sheet metal. I am considering putting an old dash in it sometime though because they are not 100% plastic.

I have definitely seen that soar thumb

I regret not doing a crewcab. There is always next time though! And I feel there will be.

No sure I have the time to tackle one o those builds right now unfortunately... Wife wants her 4 wheeler finished up first. Paul it always amazes me how small of a world it is. You parents live within 2 miles of me. I live right in town.

Ok so I fell off the forum for a bit. But I have made a bit of progress and will share it with you guys... I ended up changing gears and went with member 7mopar (s) advise. Found a beat up 92 w250 Cummins nv4500 truck for the price of the running gear. Cut a foot off each side of the radiator...

I'm doing the same 74 cummins build, just the opposite way... I'm putting 74 body panels on a 92 first gen nv4500 W250 truck.

I completely understand and agree with your buy a diesel rig point of view. The only thing is anywhere close to me the trucks are worth an arm and leg. I wish we had East coast prices! I plan to box the frame and as soon as I find one buy a Dana 60 for the front to replace the 10 bolt Chevy...

I'm thinking I may go with a Cummins diesel swap now that a local old timer wants to sell me one... The engines are expensive so I'm not sure yet but it's an option. I have been making slow progress on the chassis but I now have it all clean and painted with por 15. As many other married...

Been working on more tear down today and wire wheeling. ( the whole time wire wheeling it I'm thinking I should just get it blasted... But I kept going and only have a little left)

That is a very good question. Im planning on making the truck my daily driver once finished. If it were to be a dump runs and firewood truck then the non of would work for me but my plan is a little different for it I guess. To really answer your question though I put about 15k annually on my...

I'll be using the manual cab so the tunnel should work smoothly... And the gear vendors primarily for overdrive gear after 4th. Bring the rpms down save a little gas. As far as the granny gear, I have always liked them, make getting off the line uphill with a loaded trailer a breeze!

I'm going to use the 74 grill, I just like the older look I guess

How's that project going?

Hi guys, my first time over here from forabodiesonly. com . a 73 duster was my first vehicle and I still have it and did a part by part restoration of it. It's time I feel to up the ante, I'm doing a frame off Dodge pu. The truck: 74 w200 long Ben single cab 360 205 auto truck. Parts truck...
