sharp looking set of wheels you got there.

That rig looks so sharp you can use it to attract does.  Just park it in the middle of a field at 5pm during the rut.

Very impressive T.G.

Timber;

Does it have an auxillary tranny cooler on it?  If not, with the auto & the chip, you gonna NEED that before the winch.

900F

timber: how about putting an old barbers chair on the flatbed !!!! you can strap 6mm in and drive while he shoots. do you think he would like to come to a complet stop or would he be able to shoot while its still rolling?????????

 o man !!!!!!! just thought of it you need flood light for spotting the deer at night !!!!!!!

 A couple of suggestions. The heavy diesels will bury the front end in the mud quicker, so be careful. The duallies will float like ballons. So if you think you might need a winch, pick up a set of dually chains also.

When rotating the duallies, look for the slot in the wheel , if they still have them to correctly align them.

I have a 98 Dodge, Cummins, same color as yours,and really like it. No chip, but it has enough power to pull my 4 horse gooseneck up and over any high passes here in Colorado at acceptable speeds.

For the winch, before you chose a 8000lb one or 9500, be sure to pick one up. I can't lift the 9500 one, I opted for the 8000 lb one. I have the same set up. I can hook my winch to the front or back.

You probably don't need it where you live, but I use diesel fuel additive all year here. The winter starting is much easir with it.

Be sure to use diesel grade motor oil in it, like Shell Rotella T

Hye guys.Thanks for the tips.SS will do on those chains and the winch.I hadn`t thought of chains but it wouldn`t be a bad idea for sure to have them.I have saddle boxes under the bed and could stow them away nice and neat until I need them.Will do on that 8000 pound winch also.You never know which end your gonna need some help on.

Thanks CB and Rob on that cooler too.I`m going to go check that out.I had to do some some running around for the Mrs. this morning and didn`t get a chance to.Now I`m curious if maybe the previous owner did it.He seemed to have known a bit about these trucks from what I can tell and what he had done to it..If it doesn`t have one,I`ll be finding where I can get one...Talk to you fellas later..

TG,

forget the oil cooler.  ADD the accesory that the guy with the truck and bombs has at the top of the board.

With an accesory like that you will never need a winch.  opps...I guess the Mrs wouldn't authorize those accesories.....get the wench.

Gotta put the engine back in my sons Jeep today then its time to get back to my truck.Gonna do her first oil change this weekend with Shell Rotella T 15W 40.tHIS TRUCK DIDN`T HAVE AN EXTERNAL OIL COOLER SO i AM GONNA TRY TO FIND ONE FOR IT.

Any tips or links where I might find a good deal on this fellas?
