Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
June (Lockhart) was always tellin Paul, "slam this ride and get some 22's on it!" but he liked the farm truck look. It was a weird combo--it had single rear's on dually rims (just like the front), and a stepper bed with sidemount spare. And tutone! That's about a 1960 episode.
well--the pic didnt open dang it!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Dark blue '68 bed, anyone?
http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/cto/3631484448.html It looks like it was originally Dk Blue truck, judging by the steering column and interior metal. Whats on top of the original paint, who knows! And---it looks like a later model stick. Could be an NV3500, but no clutch cyl, so I doubt it.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Its hard to tell if thats the right blue in those pics. It sure does look close though, too bad I can't just buy the bed!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Rusbuilt,... IF you had it to do over,... would you have rather bought a nice 127" wheelbase C20 truck to build your slammed dually out of.
Looks like you aren't using much off the original truck.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Hey Keith---I don't think that list of suspension parts I sent via PM ever sent (not that I can see in my 'sent' box). I was having problems with my wifi that day. Did you ever see that more detailed list?

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
I didn't know that 93-95 NV4500s have a different size bearing retainer & belhousing index hole than the 96-up. The bolt pattern on the front of the trans is different also. AND--all have the slave cyl on the passenger side.
One way to use a 4500 with either a standard GM cast iron mechanical clutch fork or hydrulic slave, and have it on the left side is with an Advance Adapter bell: http://www.advanceadapters.com/produ...llhousing-kit/ All that dough pretty well cinches the NV3500 in my book. I assume the NV3500 slave cyl is on the left side, huh?
