I hate to part it out too, I’d much rather sell it whole as it’s actually a REALLY nice truck but unfortunately no one is willing to plop $3200 in my hand and drag it home. I’m not willing to take less than that considering the transfer case alone will sell for $2500. I mainly purchased it as a tire donor for the old USMC M35A2 I have

It could be in-framed, but the truck is missing little nick nacks such as market lights and tiny stuff. I don’t have the drive to fix it

More pictures please? Just from the bit I can see, your truck looks super clean.
Took my truck on a refuel run. I filled the truck and all of my fuel cans.
The truck hadn't moved in a couple of weeks and the temperature had got down into the 20's. Man, those NDCC's get some flat spots in cold weather. I had a nice thumping at low speeds for the first few miles. I verified my tire pressure on all tires to make sure nothing was amiss.

Been a little under the weather lately, so I haven't felt like being outside too much. I was however able to get a few things done to the 5ton on Sunday. I have new rear splash panels, so I was able to get one side switched out, also removed the plastic baffles that are in the air cleaner housing & did the K&N air flilter swap...

Canned? Just kidding. Well, hopefully not.
I’ve always liked the dually look. Wish there was a way to do it with 14.00 or 16.00 tires.

Thankfully no. I start at a paper mill in a couple weeks. My wrenching days are over.
Same here. I researched dual 14.00s and it looked extremely cost prohibitive.
I’m planning on buying a 13 speed for this truck next week. I think you are the one that at least started a similar project didn’t you? Ever finish it? I’m new here but I’ve been doing a ton of reading.
