Re: Project Family Chummins

Honestly your best bet is going to be to use the Chevy frame, Building a 4 link on the front of it to run the dodge 4x4 axle won't be all that hard.

You can shorten that frame to a short bed, that is going to be a much better route than trying to make that dodge frame work. I have long maintained that the Cummins engine is by far the best engine ever built put in the worst truck possible through a strange marriage.

I am ok with this though because there are a lot of worn out dying dodge trucks with perfectly good Cummins engines out there for the rest of us to stick in our Chevy's to replace the Turd of a diesel GM forced us to endure for so long.
