Wow, that was quick. lol. Glad you got the link.

Glad to have you Josh.

Welcome aboard. Nice to see word is getting out quite quick. The site is in its infancy, but inside of a few short months, I am hoping we will have it rockin again!

Junior you will drool when you see Josh's trucks. They are gorgeous! And the 2000 is one of the nicest Cummins convertions I have ever seen.

I look forward to it... there is a Pride and Joy forum where you can show them off bud!

Thanks Robert. Just give me a few months to get the Allison, PI converter and destroked parts in there and a few more to have my D60 under the front and she'll be done. Until I pick up the '05 cab and front clip.

She is a beaut and will only get better. I cant wait to see the finished truck.

Chum

wait a minute..... I take it this was an engine swap right? I am lost cause I thought GM used Duramax and Cummins was Dodge......

Yes Junior, its a swap. Thats why I said it was one of the cleanest conversions I had ever seen.

AHA! now I get it... sorry... momentary brain fart! LMAO

The least common swap. I can't own a Dodge, no offense to anyone but the VINs don't start with 1. It's a light duty truck with a Cummins swap. It started life as a 6.0/4L80. The 4L80 died about 30K back and the 24 Valve/NV4500 went in.

Wait... the VIN's don't start with 1? we are talking about the Vehicle Identification Number right? am I understanding this right? and if so... ummmm... what? lol

Dodge trucks VINs start with 3, indicating they're manufactured in Mexico. He wont buy anything but American, which would have a 1 for the first digit.

Interesting..... definitely a unique point of view.... I like it

Everything I own starts with a 1 if I can make it happen with one exception. I'm a Soldier so not only do I support and defend this great country but I believe in buying products made here in our country by American companies.

Exception: I buy Glocks because they work. They do make parts in Georgia now. I own a lot of firearms mostly US Made.

im safe too.. all 3 of my trucks start with 1... my quad however is a honda so.....

007, Thanks! I thought about lowering it and dragging the crap out of it! I think I would rather throw the D60 and coil-overs or bags under it.

Amen! I am for that! LAMO
