R SERIES CREWCAB
I have been collecting the parts and pieces. I need somewhere to park/post the pieces that have arrived and continue to follow me home. So, I will be moving a few posts from L110 Shorty to here.
This truck will be Cummins 24 valve powered with an NVG4500 transmission,an NVG241dld transfercase and DANA 60 axles. The front is an F350 DANA 60 High Pinion and the rear is an E350, DANA 60, both with disc brakes and 8 X 6.5" bolt pattern.
The cab I have is an IHC-ORRVILLE Metal Specialty "R" crewcab. Because of sever damage inflicted to the upper rear outside of the cab, I will be replacing the single back window of the crewcab with the rear twin window cab repair pieces.
I hope this will be interesting and maybe a little controversial. This will be my last truck build. After this is done I want to get out and drive some of our stuff. Right now, I an waiting for Doctor's clearance to return to the shop. Time and old age can be less than kind, but the future looks good, for me.
