I kind of like it but the 6.5 turbo is a joke. Probably can't pull the truck out of its own way. Clean looking though would turn some heads for sure.

Re: Extended Crew Cab with 2 ton rear??? big truck

Plus it need a runway to turn around on. I'll second the nod that the 6.5 might be a little weak for this application. Should have just stuck a CAT in there from a Kodiak.

Re: Extended Crew Cab with 2 ton rear??? big truck

Ya what a big fun rig. Defiantly should have done something about a bigger motor though. I bet that thing defiantly took a lot of time to get to where its at right now.

Re: Extended Crew Cab with 2 ton rear??? big truck

Would make a cool "looking" tow rig for sure. Functionality is a different debate.

not in PA either.... here is a snapshot of Illinois law... I think he assumes the bottom of the bumper must be 30", or he just made up new numbers since his GVWR is so much more...

Illinois


You can't lift the body from the chassis more than 3 inches. In terms of bumper height, a 4,500-pound GVWR or less and your front bumper can't go higher than 24 inches, and the rear must be no more than 26 inches. GVWRs between 4,501 and 7,500 mean 27 inches at the front and 29 at the rear. Finally, if your truck is between 7,501 and 9,000, the allowable altering is 28 and 30 inches.

Re: Extended Crew Cab with 2 ton rear??? big truck

assuming the insane gears in the diffs, the 6.5 probably does just fine.
