Project Ultimate Work Truck

[Matt_P]

I found a 07 dually lariat with a blown up engine. I have a 12v I'll throw in it along with a zf6. Just something cheap that I don't care about cutting in half.

Im working on getting that 6.0 sold but everyone up here is being a cheap bastard, just let me know when I need to bring my wiring diagrams and extra cummins C stickers down there

You dont like the new truck or are you really cutting it and making it loooong?

I saw a 5500ram at the local dealer and that sucker has what appears to be a 10 or 12 foot utility bed on it. Brand new truck.

I love my 6.7 but with what I do is just too dam nice to be used like I do and I don't want 2 trucks again. I'll build the fummins and use it as my clunker and invest the rest of the money back into farming.

This is what I keep telling myself everytime I start thinking about how nice a 6.7 would be. I feel like I would be afraid to use it for as a truck because they are so dang nice!

Hey man, I can totally understand and respect that. At the end of the day, its just a truck. I think your plan will produce a stout work truck.

Yes and no. Ended up not selling it and have continued to beat the hell out of it. Not a whole lot has changed other than adding a set of bushwacker street flares

Bought a set of UWS boxes that I'm replacing the Geneva boxes with. Going to mount them on both sides right behind the headache rack then slide the side boxes back. I'm out of room with all my boxes plum full so these will be nice.

Decided to change the wheels up and went with a set of Centerline, forged, polished, 20x12 to run up front. I ordered them a week ago and he said 4-6 weeks to build and ship.

Other than that I need to blast the bumper and bed to repaint but that's gonna be a winter project.

Yea I did. Then started noticing them on every redneck teenager trucks. Had a kid ask me about it, told him a price, and it was off the same day.

It was great for seeing across the field a long ways but I found that if I aimed it down for closer distance it glared on my hood real bad. I have 2 sets of rigid d2 in the front bumper also. I also have 2 sets of flush mounts and a set of rock lights that are going on the bed for work lights.

Haha. 2 of the flush mounts are going in the side of the headache rack and aim to the sides of the truck to help with fueling, and other shlt. Other 2 will go on the back of the bed for reverse lights but also to help with dropping heads on header trailers, etc. the rock lights will go on the boxes to light up the bed floor for a work platform at nights.
