Re: Need some opinions

My opinion? Leave that truck alone.

Sell it to someone who can appreciate it and use it for what it is: a clean, fairly straight crew cab 1 ton dually.

Find yourself a 4-door cab and a regular 1/2 ton frame and mate them. It sounds like you're going to have a lot of custom parts on this thing, so why cut up an otherwise good truck?

Thought about this over and over lol. Truck has a salavage title so ppl tend to run when u tell them that. Truth is i built this truck from a wreck and 4 or 5parts trucks only needs a few things here and there but truth is im just ready for something different.

Fair enough. Thanks for the additional info, too, as it makes it easier for me to understand where you're coming from.
