wow... they are expensive!! woo.. man, those engines look nice though, DANG.. I would LOVE to get one of those in there... man... but, I b poor.. The one thing I do have going for me, is I was restoring a 1970 ford F100 that got stolen 2 years ago.. So, I have a nice roll/light bar, and light set, that I was going to put on the f100, but never did, It looks like it might fit the ram..also have a hard tonneau cover that will fit.. It's a multi section cover, and three of the pieces will hinge up, to gain access to the bed..

yeah i have not had much of a chance to check out the site my self but from a quick over view it is expensive....well there alot of sites listed in the truckin mag...i don't know if you check that out...but to be honest i have had really good luck with searching for what i want for my truck on google, but then again the truckin mag's did help with some of the other stuff.

I'm tryin to figure out what a tranny rebuild kit will cost, vs just getting one already rebuilt.. maybe used? though used is scary..

I dunno..

Default Don't go used

please for the love of god don't go used...there is no chance of it working...no matter how good a deal they could give you on one don't do it...as you can see u got a cheap stunt pulled over you with buying the truck....its best to either get it rebuild if cost will be low or getting a new one if you can find one....

well, I think the oil pump might be going bad, it is making noise occasionally, I was out there checking it over better.. and it seems to be making noise.. I wont know how bad it is till I get the motor and tranny out, and really tear into it..
