Ido the tent as well.
But I need to come up to your standard, and get me a swamp cooler!

 

[Simplysmn]

Sure Made a World of a difference on Temp Wise with the canopy up

 

[DVolk]

What year of engine ? i still need to figure out what to do to the 93 wireing harness for a 94 engine

 

[Simplysmn]

Everything I'm useing is from a 93 so I have all the wiring to go with the Motor as soon as rear trans mount show's up I can get transfer case bolted up then have to do some minor body work on core support and the frontend will be finished major thing's left are bodywork on frontend , mount T case and redo rearend along with swap it out I'm not going to use block's I'm useing suqare tubing 120 wall as a block that way we can set pinion angle at same time Goal for driving it is by Jan 2013

Donovan We installed a 96 CTD in my buddies 93 W350 and it required very little wiring mods, the fuel solenoid being the main one. Shad

this is what it look's like as of Today have to finish moving cab around and then anchor down Cab and rest of bed then finish frontend, ehaust windshield,front seat's and driveline's

 

[DVolk]

What needs to be done on that fuel slinod , ive seen a rough draft thats added from the starter if this is the case

would a fuel relay kit in jeggs or summit work for /this add on then i just swap the sensors over ? also have a question can i drop off the cast iron elbow from the turbo ? to use a large diameter not stock exhaust behind the 93 ?

 

[Simplysmn]

Got the Transfer case in and mounted now have to finish up frontend and Inside the the Big Money Item's Exhaust, drivelines and shock's FUN FUN FUN

Well got it loaded and brought home today now I can work on it more then 1 day a week drove it on and off trailer so so far the trans i got feel's Really Sweet

 

[DAN V]

Simplysmn, is that your personal flatbed? How long is that thing? Very nice looking truck and the trailer is sweet too. !!

 

[Simplysmn]

No it's not mine it belong's to a good friend that haul's car's for a Living he has a 10 car but uses the trailer and his F550 ford to collect everything for the load Plus he's Nice enough to let me use it if he's not the deck is I want to say 40 ft tow's Beautiful I wish it was Mine but if it was it would be a Gooseneck instead of bumper pull . the crewcab is my hobby I like building thing's I have been hard at it for last 4 month's but only worked on it on Sunday's because it was 30 miles away each way to get to it .

 

[pwerwagn]

Lookin awesome man.



Diggin the baja TA's on the outlaw 2's. Looks cool and old school!

 

[Simplysmn]

Yeah thoses will be on there till april then I am swapping them out for a deep dish mag wheel I picked up for free I will post a build thread this week cleaned up with all the progress .

 

[pwerwagn]

Oh man... slotted mag's n Baja TA's would be such an awesome combo on something like this!!



I never even contemplated that. You just got my wheels turning in my head...

 

[Simplysmn]

yeah there a 10x16. 5 wheel so it will be sweet

 

[Flying_gage]

Simply,

Nice build! I had a '93 CTD and one of those old air force trucks, likes yours. Time and circumstances made me change my direction...

Is that trailer aluminum? Even as a bumper pull, I really like it!

 

[Simplysmn]

Thank You Sir and as for the Trailer It's All Steel but it pull's Like a Dream . only thing I would do if it was Mine would be extend it about 10 ft more and make it a goose neck .

 

[Simplysmn]

Well Figured I would give a Little update . Been driving it for a little over 2 yr's now and have done some different thing's with it here and there . but Todayand the Last 4 day's have been Awesome Got the truck all stripped down and sent off too the body Shop. It's Finally getting Color and 1 color It's a Dark Blue Metallic .Body shop made me a Heck of a Deal If I strip it down they would paint it for $2000.00 So Today was the day it left on the Back of a Roll Back . and even that was a Dodge 5500
