rebuild

[bmoeller]

Oh DAMN!

[TX1GEN]

started gettin parts today, she will live again!
but prolly gonna be maroon this time around

[PToombs]

Looks like that box was blue to begin with. I wish I could find parts like that around here, all our stuff is rusted to death.

[TX1GEN]

ya it was two tone, blue with the silver running down the middle. i like that, but im thinkin just a solid flat maroon and either run white or black steel wheels
i got my cab as well shortly after, off a 89 auto gasser, i gotta chop a hole in the floor soon to fit the man transmission. should be fun, this project wont be done in a month like my last one, she'll probably be back up in a year or so, itll give me time to find an original grille instead of the ugly aft mkt one

[dazedandconfused]

If that cab is an auto do yourself a favor and cut the tunnel out of your 5 spees cab.

[TX1GEN]

are they different tunnels?
my black cab was an auto cab and the guy before me cut a hole in the middle and a landing strip out, so you can drop the tranny without having to take out the shifter.

[dazedandconfused]

Im pretty sure the manual tunnel is bigger.

[PToombs]

Manual and/ or 4x4 had the wide tunnel, 2wd auto has the narrow one. I cut my old one out, and then always pull the shifter stub to get the trans out instead of unscrewing the tunnel.

where did you get the front bumper on ur black dodge? I want the same one for mine

[TX1GEN]

i liked that front bumper a lot too, i got it from united aftermarket parts $60, here in san antonio, 210-828-4262

Extended cabs from '88-up were all the wide floor.
I've owned at least three '92-'93 auto 2wd E/C ones and they were also all the large floors.
