DUDE!! That is toooo coool What did you use for the front axle? Is it straight or independent? I like how you implemented the rear fenders in with the bed. Is the rear end been updated also? I see you have bud wheels that's why the??????'s. When you get a chance picture's of front axle,engine compartment,etc.,etc. would be awsome!! Diesel Power Mag had a Mack conversion featured in i think December or January. That rig has a whole lot of fabbin goin on. Check it out if you get a chance. Keep up the good work and keep us posted

The chassis is a 96 3500 2wd dually with adapters to the 22.5's. The engine and trans have been moved back 8 1/2 inches it has an auto trans thats been built a little. The engine is a 12 valve with a 4k gsk and valve springs, a #10 plate, and upgraded turbo. Oh yeah and propane. The rear suspension is Kelderman Air ride.

Nice job!

I've got a 41 Diamond T that I'm planning and gathering parts for.

The bed looks great,.....what are the rear fenders from?

The fenders are off of a 1937 GMC fire truck. We bought the whole truck complete just for those rear fenders. Now just need to figure out what to do with the rest of the fire truck.
