Welcome to the family :-D.

Now start grinding on the fuel plate!!!!

 

[Lurch]

Actually it's not quite stock now. The guy I bought it from had no clue other than knowing it was more "fun" to drive than his '95. I haven't had time to sort it all out yet, I just got back from picking it up in Ohio.

If you love yours half as much as I love mine, you will never get rid of it!

 

[MMeier]

Great looking rig, except, whats that growth under the front bumper??

 

[Forrest Nearing]

pull those nasty red badges off, and you'll be in business!



a 'new' 12v is like a new mistress... gotta love it!



I'm playing with a 'new' one myself

 

[WDixon27]

They call that a "splitter" on NASCAR's COT. :-laf



Great looking truck Lurch. Welcome to the "properly valved" side.

Welcome back Lurch. Nice truck.

Nice truck. Love them Dually's. I'm on my 2nd DRW CTD.

 

[Coalsmoke]

Nice truck you got there, I like that blacked out front end, looks much better IMO than the factory chrome deal. Keep the little red badge, it sort of adds fire to the side of the truck, like its a sleeper but the little red badge tells all

I have been looking for a 12V 98 QC dually for the last year and still haven't found one within 500miles. Consider yourself lucky

 

[Lurch]

This wasn't close either. 700+mi to get it. Had 3 trucks to look at on the trip, bought this one.

I'm not really sold on the bumper yet. It seems to be molded as a 1 piece unit, not just cobbled onto a stock sport bumper. If the wife tears it off on a high curb I can use the guilt to pay for something better . It is certainly different tho. Would probably look cool with the ground effects all around. Maybe it will grow on me.

That thing's definatly sweet. I Like it. Nice find!

 

[Boondocker]

I kinda like the front facia. It adds to the rakish look of the DRW 2-wheel drive. Theoretically, it should improve fuel mileage by reducing uncarriage drag. I don't get the debadging thing, just not into the nondescript look, I guess. Or maybe I'm just proud of the Cummins Turbo Diesel.



Neil

All you got's a Hemi? :-laf

 

[MFalkinham]

Sweeeet! You done good.

Make sure to get that KDP tabbed before it bites you (if it hasn't been fixed already).

 

[Lurch]

Got fluids and filters done, got my gauges in today. Making 35# of boost, I knew it wasn't quite stock

You mean you couldn't see that the wastegate was plugged off and the pump timing made your motor sound like a D7 cat?? :-laf:-laf

I'm very proud of the Cummins... and while I'll remove pinstriping, body moulding, and the Dodge lettering from the tailgate, I leave the Cummins badge.



my point is the red badges are nasty looking... looks like an 80's Marlboro ad campaign :{
