My old blue


Under the hood

91 D250. Originally nonintercooled, 727auto/no overdrive. Now has 5sp Getrag and a 7.3 PS intercooler, with homemade 3" intercooler lines shown, in Cummins Beige.
160k miles.
hx35w/14cm wg.
POD injectors.
DennyT Stage 2 Pin.
Full 4" exhaust to single ricer-window level 6" stack.
Piston LP.
Enough power to have smoked a Con O clutch in 8k miles.
Southwest fabricators front/rear bumpers/headache rack.
2002 Dodge alloys.
'03 Dodge seats, Nice for the cab Pioneer sound system.
Original paint still in great condition.
Homemade custom grille inserts.
Countless hours in mods and homemade pieces (mostly under the hood).
Thanks.

rbrettctd. Where you been? lol

looks good with the alloys.
Your truck has the weirdest factory 2 tone ever, i have to see one like it.

Scary you say you burned a con 0 because my dad and I are planning the same mods you got and we don't wanna get rid of the sachs.

Been busy with a tough semester trying to finish up my degree.

Ya Ive seen only two other trucks like it, and one is actually my old neighbors. You'll be okay with the Sachs, I heard bad stuff about this clutch immediately after I bought it, but live and learn. Time for an FE.

Nice clean truck "grandpa" truck, I bet it surprises a lot of folks.
I like it like that, no moldings or emblems, I even removed the bed light.
Kind of reminds me of Uncle Jesse's pickup on Dukes of Hazzard

It was the first vehicle I ever bought new so it is special to me.
I don't use this truck for work anymore, it's retired. i have another 1st gen that does the farm work now. I take it to the local car shows now
and cruise with it.
