Bad plan.

Nick, my neighbor has a RC dually that looks to be in pretty good shape. I'd love to buy it someday and do a 4x4 conversion on it.

I sure would think the ol guy was wound tight and working !!!

If I were to wind up with a fiver I would have to do the usual stuff. I like the thought of having options between the 2 trucks. Not sure with Clifford's ride height a fiver would work too well.

I was wondering where that truck went. I thought about contacting JP about it, but it was just too far away for me to make it worth it.

Leave it stock if you wish, it will tug that 6500 around easy.

I agree. I think an intake, 3" down pipe, EBPV delete, cat delete, and a flow through muffler, and it will be a nice smooth, dependable tow rig to pull that 6500 lb. camper.
