Alright yea lol, i wouldnt worry about it then, and even if you get a dually you can convert to single wheel.

[Car'n'Guitars]

Thought about that too but then id have to swap beds too

[big_r101]

True, but i bet you can find some for sale for fairly cheap

[Car'n'Guitars]

I may who knows my mind could change, Im really starting to want a crew cab though.

[big_r101]

Thats what im goin with, need the extra room and since im gonna put alot into it i may as well get a crew.

[Car'n'Guitars]

I just keep seeing pictures of them and the more i see the more i want

[big_r101]

Yea there are alot of real nice ones out there.

[Car'n'Guitars]

I actually want a crew cab single rear wheel truck

[big_r101]

Craigslist is the best place to look in my opinion.

[Car'n'Guitars]

Yeah im looking everyday

[big_r101]

Yea, also try other local craigslists and even some closer states, ive found all sorts interesting trucks.

[Car'n'Guitars]

I have been there isnt much around which is kinda disappointing.

[big_r101]

Thats the way it is around here, sometimes theres nothing, other times theres tons of listings.

[Car'n'Guitars]

Theres never anything when im looking haha...

[big_r101]

Just keep tryin, somethin will show up. What all do you plan on doing for your build?

[Car'n'Guitars]

Buy the truck, use it as is all winter then get into it. Small lift, build Cummins. straight pipe it, make the body nice, simple and durable.

[big_r101]

How much are you putring into the engine? And what generation are you using?

[Car'n'Guitars]

93 1st gen, cheap as possible but im sure ill be poor in the end, itll be p pumped turbo.

[big_r101]

I would just find a second gen p pump, cause i think you would have to change up the front timing case on the first gen for the p pump to work.

[Car'n'Guitars]

Nope you dont have to. And i already have the motor.

[big_r101]

I do believe the injector holes are different between the two, but 12 valve p pump heads are everywhere, i mean a brand new one from cummins is about 850, so im sure some remans are cheaper.

[andrewmp6]

Craigslist is funny if you look for something you can't find it,But you give up and look for something else the first thing you wanted shows up.And i know this is a chevy site but a 80-96 f250 or f350 a cummins swap is easy on also.

[Car'n'Guitars]

Okay so I'm almost ready to pull the Cummins out of the Dodge. Also I found a decent K20 for $900.

[big_r101]

There ya go, what trans do you plan on using?

[Car'n'Guitars]

Would like to run a manual but not sure. Kinda open to ideas right now.
