Where is this truck located? Why don't you see if a boardmember will go look at it for you? That would answer a lot of questions for you. DO NOT buy a truck with pictures alone, get someone to look at it first. I have looked at a truck for a boardmember that was near me, and a boardmember looked at a truck for me that was in California. Just ask, and someone will check it out for you.

I have over 40 Pictures and ive talked to the guy about everyother day this week and last, he seems like a real nice older guy. He just now sent me pictures of the plate and the numbers on the frame, also along with a bunch more pictures of the frame. I really dont think it has been cut. Obvioulsly its sitting up a little high i just cause there is no weight to the bed right now with no wood in it, He also says there are 2'' drop springs back there that have not settled. With all the pictures i have i am faily confident in my purchase.

If there is anyone from around Monroe GA that would like to go look at it for me that would be great! Just please dont buy it out from under me!

i think it is a very risky chance you take/at a minimum you'd need to relocate the rear end then the driveshaft wont work and there maybe a clearance issue with the gastank when you move the rear back

in a crap shoot the house generally wins and you're the playa not the house

The gas tank is not in the way of moving the rear end back. If i post pics of the frame ID can someone run it for me or is there a thread i can look it up in?
