It appears to be. I believe the owner added those to level it. The only driving the truck sees is 15miles into town and 15miles back home, when it gets driven.

looks almost like full hydro steering! - no crossover that I can see -can't see the drivers side but that would be a super steep drag link if there was one!

Full hydro is not street legal so it must be a purpose built mud truck.

I spoke with the owner and he told me that he had the blocks made out of solid steel and cut to the proper caster. He also has bolts through the blocks the tie them to the spring packs.

As for the steering it has hydro assist-steering.

Yeah I hear that my buddy has a 77 w a 360 and a 77 w a 440. The 360 is so much more dependable the 440 has given him some trouble but to each their own ya know. Wow 513 gears that is some low gears how fast does it go lol just kidding i am sure you have lots of torque with those.
