The introduction of 85truckhauler

[85truckhauler]

I got my first pickup truck, 1985 Dodge D 150. Now I'm on my third motor looking at putting a big block in. It's a two wheel drive truck but it serves me well. It started out with a 318 in it, but it was getting tired so I upgraded to a 360. Then I got stuck in the snow one day and decided to put in a Dana 60 rear with a sure grip center section. This turned out to be the whole drive line since the original 8 1/4 rear had a longer drive shaft. So with the drive shaft change came the transmission change from the 833 OD to a NP 435 trans. That was about 8 years ago and now I want my 833 OD back in. So this year will be a custom driveshaft mating the 833 OD to the Dana 60 rear. Can't wait!
