Thanks for the info bruiser

Even though it is a Regular cab W350, it still needs a relocated crossmember? Just double checking, I don't want to create more work than is needed

The reason I asked about the PTO is because of the fact that my grandpa's W350 used to be a tow truck. and did you have to relocate the x-member on your regular cab that was the donor for your 4 door? or did you buy it with a cummins in it already(the regular cab)?

All these questions in my head and the fact that I don't want to mess this swap up have me all like this haha

someone on this thread thought a quad cab long bed would be a great find, or a great project. Well BRUISER, I found one for you. may not be in the best of shape, but I bet you could get her looking mighty nice. Craigslist ads NOT allowed on DTR hope she excites you as much as she did me.

There may be some parts of that truck that are and 86, but there is a whole lot more '76 to her.
