Like my daddy always said, "Just jack up the radiator cap and drive a new truck under it."

I gave 4500 for it. Drove just over 200 miles to get it and drove it back. Le model. Everything work. Cruise, wipers , windshield washer, locks and windows, ac and heat. Does drive straight but has shimmy. Gonna park the wife's jeep when we get home and gonna put a head gasket And studs in The 1990 while I'm here. And yes I'm n the camp ground. That will be fun. I'll post some pics as I go. The dually is a 93 and I got a "computer that needs to be rebuilt. Got a lot today learn about the 93. Thanks for all the help with the knock but it finally should its ugly face. The turbo and my right foot is the problem. Not the motor. Lol. I'll post the head gasket replacement on the other thread that I have.

Nice find! You even scored on a visor!

Did it come with gages or any add ons like that? Is it an automatic or stick shift?

Wonder if the previous owner had the 3200 spring out in, when he got that BD power pin put in. That power pin is also sold as a kit with the spring, which is why I ask.

Your going to love that automatic, lol. Easier on the knees. How are the brakes?

Now you're going to have to get a 1993 factory manual, or CD.
