2001 Dually

Lookin at a 2001 dually 4x4 auto. cummins of course. Totally good truck from what i can tell, gots 202k on it. Anything imparticular i should check out? Drove nice and felt strong. Gonna have it all checked out for bearing and everything. One idea ive had to check the fuel presure was to hook up to the tap on the vp, and then tape that to the wind shield, good idea? does that work? and what size fittings does the vp44 use?

and then next off what would yall expect to pay for this? Im not droppin in the price, that way i can see if im gettin a better deal :P

That's a great way to check the FP. I think the size is 1/4 npt. But don't quote me. It's been so long since I've dealt with a stock fuel system setup.
