Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

That's something Travis and I can help on. We may not know much about the mechanicals of these trucks, but we can install a sink. You want it to have water come out right?

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

I doubt that. John's probably right though. Most of my experience is inside the engines.

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

Don't bother fixing it, just throw headers on it.

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

That's what I'm saying. Ceramic coated headers would look awesome but of course $$ is my problem too!

Did you ever think about back halfing your crew cab? Taking the rear frame off of the shortbed truck underneath the rear part of the cab so that the shortbed gas tank would definately work. I looked at a 1/2 Ton 4wd rear frame tonight and I think the frame rails are the same size. I need a battery for my micrometer or I would have really gotten some good measurements!

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

That's a pretty slick truck. Too bad you had to sell it. Priorities can be tough sometimes!
