RE: knocking

Oh, and don't drive it if you are planning on rebuilding THAT motor. You score the crank bad, you now gotta pay for a new one instead of turning the existing one. Also, the motor could lock up. (By the way, what's a KMS)? LOL!!

RE: knocking

Yea, it doesn't make much since in throwing in another 2k and then something else go wrong. For the right price I'll sell you my truck. I just bought it 1 year and 6,000 miles ago. Not trying to be like a dealer, but I'd sell it because I don't really need it, just my fun truck.

RE: knocking

hmmmm $1,800 for a new motor aint too bad.

and kms = kilometers I'm from canada eh

but if I decide to pull the motor, I wont be rebuilding this one. its cheaper to buy a new one, and then I wont have too much down time while my motor is getting rebuilt.

if I'm gonna buy another truck, it will be a 91-92 dak. my dream truck is a 2500 ram diesel, so I'm saving up for that

Those motors are pretty cheap. Look into one of those. It's perfect because it comes with a warranty. Nice link JB.

RE: knocking

A diesel would be nice, but what about a diesel engine in your Dakota. Now that would be badass. I'm just thinking outside the box now.

BTW my friends say it sounds like a diesel, so atleast I'm half way there
