Sell it and throw a trans in the 4wd one

We'll see, if I'm gonna go that far i'd almost rather do a 5 speed swap, however it may just be a torque converter so I'll need to look into that

I'd say sm465, but you look to be real attached to that 5th gear

Like me we are all 55+mph around here, it's all country driving. He has less hills though.

So after work I replaced all 4 shocks with "newer" ones, and changed one sway bar link. Pretty sure these were OEM.

I also discovered why the steering is sloppy, I originally was blaming all of it on the 4 blown shocks, but this explains more of it. Cheap replacement ones are being ordered shortly!

Lol, your shocks look just like mine.

So I have now gotten rid of my 01 daily driver, and now have this on the road and insured. Got a couple interior parts from the junkyard, as well as an idle air control valve, seems to idle at a lower RPM now. Still have a few things to do before i'll just leave it alone and drive it, idler/pitman and fuel gauge mainly. I will be driving this for a while until I decide what to do with my other truck, or unless I find the right 2500 or 3500. Also thought this was neat, it has factory black light and heater control buttons, as well as a blacked out gauge panel, with a left side vent delete.

Factory black light?

 

[Jrgunn5150]

Factory black light?

Yeah, I'm not following that either lol, unless it's like a CSI, skeezy motel truck package?

 

[Justin S]

No, the headlight switch and hvac control buttons are black, where as every other one I've ever seen is grey
