Check this truck out!!!!

Ok, so I am searching for a different dodge for dad. And I am looking on ebay, then I run across this!!! Quite different, I think!!! The whole bed drops down to the ground for ease of loading. If you notice the whole rear-end is removed, and they use the transfercase to make the truck a front wheel drive. Interesting to say the least.



Check it out!!!!





Ebay Truck, Check this out

A bit o' engineering going on there. Perfect for the motorcycle mechanic enthusiast! Yes, very interesting to say the least!

I would think that truck would be worse to drive then a full time 4X4 truck. The torque steer would be terrible I would think.

I'm still trying to figure how this relates to diesel.

 

[f.boyle]

thats different for sure. deffinitely in the wrong spot though

I am doubtful that the T/Case could live very long in that application. Cool though.

No torque on this one, all it's got is a 360 gasser - wouldn't be any different than driving Mom's Cadillac.

Bill:

I put links to it in the skyjacker post. They should also be in my reader rig forum under 2003 Pulling Pics. I will link you up again. It also shows some pics of my buddies diesel pulling trucks. I have more, just need to figure out how to make them smaller or setup a page separate from TDR.

My dads 77 dodge was a Fulltime 4X4 with a 400 4 spd. A Motor that is not known for low end torque, just hi revs. That thing was terrible to drive around town in pavement turning tight. I would think this truck would do the same thing, maybe a little less with the auto, but alot worse then a Caddy. Caddy's have CV joints in the axel shaft for smooth turns, not so for the dodge with regular u-joints.
