i was wondering if this truck is worth the price also it would be cool if anyone could post some pics of qclb's and has anyone seen a 3rd gen. bumper on a second gen.

98 3/4 ton, 5 speed manual 5.9L 12V Dodge diesel for sale. This truck has power to spare! 6" Sky jacker lift kit, Jacobs exhaust brake with 5" stack, 35in boggers, fog lights, pyrometer and manifold pressure gauges, solid rear differential. 271K miles, but runs GREAT! Lots of money and upkeep went into this truck, brand new clutch and many others. Give me a call today, you will not be let down!

You don't say what he's asking but I wouldn't go over $8000

7500...what all might go wrong at that many miles...if its not a 53 block....

7500 is fair, I don't like the 6" lift at all, but other than that, looks clean enough, and if the maintenance was done, 271K isn't taht much.

I paid the same for my 98. It had 193K when I got it. Been a good truck so far. Did some minor repairs, water pump, timing cover seal, vacuum pump seal, new steering damper...some other stuff that should be expected with so many miles. It has 217K now and Im hoping to see 400K or more. I agree with Pat about the lift...but thats just my opinion. Other than that, it looks like a nice truck, I would go ahead and buy it just for the fact that they are getting SO HARD to find. Good Luck, Scott.

he sent more pics has some rust on the body but not rust holes also he said he put a new clutch in but its already slipping so he said he would take 6500 or lower once i see the truck.....im worried about the suspension too..the interior is clean and he might include road tires. the bed is beat up in one corner and same with the tailgate and the seat has one tear on the driver side. but he says its the best one he has out of three running wise but cant use it for work cuz of the lift.

did 98s come without a quadcab? just wondering. If your dead set on a 98 I'd try to find one from a southern state with out rust, that is just what you can see more than likely a lot more that you can't. that stuff is almost imposable to stop after it starts without a complete strip and repaint.

grail4life

yea i think they did ive seen three for sale that were club cabs instead of quad cabs but im not sure either

There is a ton of rust under that rhinoliner. I would rather have a rustier original paint truck that can at least be fixed. That truck would need $4k in bodywork to be presentable.


Truck is worth $5k TOPS. I wouldnt go over $3500. Looks worn out to me.

Looks pretty abused. I have seen in diesel power a 2nd gen with third gen bumper it looked good other than the gap under the grill, I would think if the grill was customized to fill the gap it would have looked great.

You asked, I say pass on this worn out truck.

i know it looks like **** but i think if i replaced that bad fender and got a bed it would be back to rust free. i also have a welder to patch panel. but i am wondering how well do the frames last to rust? i just am really wanting a grail truck within 10,000 and this i figured could be fixed for not to much....but im open to ppls thoughts..so if it runs solid steers straight doesnt leak what do u think?
