I was looking at least fuel cost, but I do have a BUSY weekend planned with me going out of town again on monday morning.

So one less road trip would save me abunch, as long as its no problem for you. Come look at it on Sat and if you want it, tell your guy to come get it on Sat afternoon or Sun?

Planing to meet in reed at 8 so hope to be at you place by 9, How wide is the truck out side of wheel to out side of wheel? Think the trailer he has is 82" (its a tight fit for my 87 with the 33x12.5x15)

I am still in Orlando, can tape it friday night when I get home. I am thinking it will fit, throw in some stock wheels/tires for the front end to make sure.

Remember Ches this truck is not perfect, its got some ruff to it. I hate to sale a truck to a friend, good way to lose one. If it will not work for you, that's cool by me not to sale it to you.

Meaning do not feel obligated to buy it, just off our conservations on here.

Bring a little extra cash, I got a awesome set of red/aluminum finned/hurricane style rims
w/31x10.50x15 AT's for a 1/2 ton.

"Oil Cooler", seems to me to be a good idea to use it, IMO?

I want to leave it on there. I don't see that it will hurt anything. Especially since it appears to be stock on heavy duty trucks.
Oh what's it going to cost to slap some paint on there?
