Lightbulb Hows this sound??

Instead of selling the wheeler, sell PARTS of it...

Like axles, and hydro assist for $2000. wheels and tires for $2000.

Pull the motor, and put it in my 37, put the doubler in my 94, put the tanny and other stuff in the parts shed, set the cab on blocks for a future project(read crew extended cab)...




I'm tired of hauling the wheeler everywhere, its almost not fun being able to drive everywhere compaired to everyone I wheel with, let alone being the guy thay has to play tow truck all the time....

What Say you?

but then you have to explain to a bunch of yahoo's that they have to buy both your axles and wheels and tires or else the wheels and tires are different offsets and your front is a dually and the rear isn't.....

Depends on what offers you might get. I'd parts anything before giving it away. Maybe try asking for some cash and a trade, you might come out on top that way.

Thanks Dan, and yeah, laughing about it is pretty much all I can do right now.

Dave, if you do part it out, is the cab straight?

EDIT: never mind, I see what your plans would be. I am considering turning my super cab into a four door, with a little flatbed on it.
