Any pics?
And I'm bumping you up because I am tired of seeing the last post being from an account seemingly made for the purpose of upping someone's youtube watch counts.

i am about to do the same thing. I am planning on putting a 2003 4door on my 95 frame. The donor frame is from an extended cab long box. The donor cab is from a 2500 gas job(hemi). I am only using the cab and front end.. I plan on designing and building a custom deck. This post I think is a little old. I hope the author is still a member. I would really like to ask a few questions and solicit advice.

anyone else know of any builds similar or even just have some onsite? I invite and appreciate any and all responses

my name is Chris and I fell in love with dodge diesels ever since I got my first gen 1 hot rod… I miss that one. Some stupid personal choices had me crashing and getting impounded. Building a replacement has been a plan ever since. It’s taken years to come to fruition but I had to scrap my demons first. And I won. Over 2 years now. Knock on wood. This particular idea for the build has come to me more recently. I almost bought a 94 with a 24v(mechanical conversion) with a 2002 extended cab (with 4 doors). I was a day late with the cash, the gentleman had a few parts trucks and it gave me an idea to build my own. So here I am.
