I had a guy convert my ideas onto paper and he did a STANDUP job.

This is what my truck will resemble when i utter the words "finished" not that it will ever be finished.

Heres the specs:

Ditch the regular cab for supercrew cab (staying on the reg cab frame)
shorten bed down to approxamatly 4'
Custom front and rear bumpers
custom SEMI-exo cage
custom rock sliders
custom tube bed with tire carrier

rockwell 2.5 ton axles
4 wheel disc brakes
46" mickey thompson baja claws
20" Custom wheels (made by LWR or stazworks)

3.9L Cummins 4bt/700r4/NP205
exhaust exiting quater panel.

dual king resevoir shocks on front
single king shocks on rear
full hydro steering by PSC

16.5k pound winch front and rear.

The truck would be slightly shorter than picture shows... but its a good look into the future.

I know this isnt everyones cup of tea, but let me know what yall think.

 

That looks sweet can wait to see some real pictures of it best of luck with the project.

 

haha, we both will probably no longer be on this site or alive once it gets this far.

(i got to get married eventually right)

 

Would look pretty awesome! How much would this all cost?

 

marriage that sounds like a big cry for lol...

would that thing eve be street legal or are you just going to use it for playing in the mud and sand?

 

that looks sick trimble! i reallt hope this falls through, as I'd love to see this happen.

 

well in the

AXLES, SUSPENSION, TIRES, WHEELS theres around 7-10 grand
Cummins 4bt/700r4/np205 plus install parts is another 7-8 grand
Body Swap would run 2,000-4,00
all the misc fabrications could nickle and dime you to death.
the bumpers would easily cost over 3,000 to make (for both)


so all in all it would have a completely new body, powertrain and drivetrain for les than 35,000. Alot of this stuff im having to out source because of my current situation (living in an apartment with a messed up shoulder). So once i get that taken care of and can start welding again some of the prices would go down.


Yeah, it would still be street legal in FL. As long as they dont change their lift laws anytime soon.

 

that thing will make young children and old women cry lol that thing will be beastly!!! BA truck by the way

 

nice, but why the little cummins?

 

That's awesome. I like that alot.

 

All it needs is a mini gun in the bed...

 

 

looks awesome!

 

hey, your going to start a run on PVC!

 

the truck isnt exactly long enough for the 5.9L

the motor + trans + t-case would put me at some HORRID angles.

The 4bt is 2 cylinders shorter than the 6b. The 700r4 is shorter than the stock 4r70w. Then a divorced np 205 and im back at reasonable tolerances.

plus the 3.9L puts out PLENTY for what i want to do with it.
