Re: Project Family Chummins

Think I will keep an eye on this one too. interesting. The tailgate from the dually will fit. most all of the body parts from that gen truck are interchangeable and easily found. good luck man!

that's good to know

today I was driving the ol' dodge for work and stopped and got some fuel and checked the oil. I noticed that the fan belt was shredded on one rib. The alternator had the wrong pulley on it even though it was fairly new.

So I drove home (about 25 miles) and while I was driving I could hear the fan belt clinking against the fan and other things, but I pressed on and made it home.

Upon inspection that rib of the belt had clearance itself and was not sitting nicely in the alternator pulley. But I knew it was damaged and not correct, so I picked up a new alternator and fan belt (know one could get me just the pulley ) So I'll keep driving it tomorrow
