I'm in. Love the heavy trucks. It never ceases to amaze me how little rust you have out there...

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually

Dude...
Your a machine...you never stay still....you never stop.....

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually
 

Hey Dino, congrats on your old square body in the Gazette! ;-) (counting down, waiting for Broey to say something .....hehehe) Can't wait to see this dually build!

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually
 

This is going to be a killer truck...I love what you have planned for it. Keep it up and keep the pictures coming....

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually
 

yo D looks good..

Btw you can also use a 3/4 ton rear out of a suburban if you cant find a cab and chassis. Or you can use those axles on shorten a dually rear end...

Did you decide to go with the Semis?

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually
 

Dino,... are you going to run narrowed a-arms and dually rotors up front?
Or lengthened a-arms and standard 3/4-ton rotors?

Diesel Wheels makes some cool "direct-fit" 8-lug wheels that don't require $1k worth of adapters to use the 10-lug Semi wheels.

Here we go again, too cool as usual.

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually
 

Dino,

This is too cool, How do you find the time to do all this in such a short time frame. Between your appliance business, family, friends and taking your helper mechanic to the vet, there can't be that much time in one day!!

Re: dinos 64 soon to be a long bed dually
