Can't you just use the stock Dodge frame and convert it to Cummins and put a 4x4 front on it?

 

no i do not have the crew frame anymore and since the ford is allready 4x4 (and i to lazy to convert 4x4) i will strech the frame on the ford.
i would strech the 1st gen dodge frame but mine is a short frame 6 inch and the ford frame is 9 inch which i have frame peices to strech it with. the fords also ride better than the 1st gens,
i am now also thinking, i might try a 9 foot box

 

found some dually dodge fenders off a 90 so now i can run a pick up box,
the peices are comeing togeather, now i just need to find a ford 205t-case or do the front end houseing swapt

 

found a ford 205, i just have to make an adapter to the getrag,
also found a frame, just have to see if its good.

 

heres the frame

t-case

 

picked up the rear end today, 4:10's with no locker but i have a locker to use in it, and i going to 3:54's so to not need another over drive

 

rear end is under it, but i need some 4inch blocks and u-bolts
also ready to put in the front end

 

rolling chassis now

rear cab mounts are made, front ones need to be welded, then on to the box i guess

 

Very cool!

 

haven't done much to it, other than i know which truck i'm using for a donor now, my white truck will be the one since i want a crew cab with some power and if i use the blue truck as the donor i would have to buy to many parts abd then would still drive the white truck because i like it.

and the blue truck is in better shape than the white one.

 

Any new pictures from the last year?

 

maybe somewhere but it is still about the same except the box is full of parts

 

engine mounts are done, had to cut the firewall to set the engine back far enough, hood is painted, trans mount is next. then t-case adapter.
