Another E-bay find...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Monst...QQcmdZViewItem

Item number: 130005753535

Unlike most of the jewels tho, I can't see anything really wrong with this one other than being taller than necessary, and the uneeded dump bed...
Only 2 shocks per corner, full hydro, looks like proper mounting of the front springs with a shackle reversal, nice guage setup.
The pictures may be hiding something, but it doesn't seem that way
Heck, I'd pimp it, just a bit taller than I think is necessary.

i think this is a repost as i've seen that truck before. as far as some of the big trucks you see on ebay this one has got to be one of the coolest. although, you would probably have to be pretty careful with those dual wheels one the front, that has to be alot of stress on them axles.

I don't know, I think the dump bed would be perfect for dumping out firewood or beer cans

I remember this... Never figured out how it could possibly make a normal turn on a street. Deff. no U'ies. Still awesome.


$3400 for that isn't bad at all.

well one of the things about this truck that really impresses me is that you can tell it doesn't have either a body lift or lift blocks. it also looks like it is sitting on the stock frame. although as tall as it is it might benifit from some dropped leaf spring mounts so that you could get away with less arched springs and better flex. what do you guys think?

It is pretty bad ***. I wonder how big those tires are. My guess is they are 56" Michelins, at least thats what they sorta look like.
