Re: Couple of dually questions

The OP said standard cab. Turning radius is the same as a C10 long. Mine is a warmed over 454/T400/3:73s and it moves along just fine. I have a Ziggy car for fuel millage. The only problem I see is after it snows and the tracks are clear with snow in the center and sides of the lane, the rears can grab the windrowed snow. Not a problem after its been plowed though.

Re: Couple of dually questions

I know it isn't a standard cab, but it is a dually. This shows what performance one could get out of one of these big beautiful beasts..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_BjAT9LJEY

Any help would be great

How can you not love that single cab
