What about a lowered 4x4 diesel? I get bored and can't leave anything alone. It's been lifted, levelled, back to stock, and now 2.5" lower. With a cummins and 5 speed now as well.

It's an 08 f250 fx4 black leather truck. I put a 98 p pump 12v cummins in it using the dodge nv4500 tranny with my e shift tcase. Been doing the swap for a year or so. No rush so just been picking away at it as time allows. I'll be driving it in the spring. Any more in depth questions just ask away.


This picture is a few months old. Theirs a lot more done now.

That's heresy. You'll get shot in some segments of the Internet for that. But I do like the sound of a Cummins.

Cummins are cheap and easy to find compared to other diesels and a lot easier to retrofit and tune. Looks like a nice clean swap. I would love to swap a diesel in my 73 GMC one day

I did it for the availability and I found the perfect donor truck. The 6.4 was a hell of a lot faster then this motor will ever be, but I'm more into truck pulling than 1/4 mile. Theses a good chance of just selling it in the spring but I don't know yet. Don't owe anything on it and it bothers me to have that much $$$$ tied up in a truck at this point in my life. Depends if I like it or not with this motor trans. You wouldn't know it by the other truck in my driveway, but I'm actually not really a cummins guy at all.

For the last 10 years I focused on lowering for performance handling. Gonna be weird going back up.
why? because the work so well.

One picture has what it looks like with the tires that I had on it then the new tires 33 12.50 15 bfg mud terrain pro comp series 7031 3.75 backspacing. They stick out a little bit but looks really cool. I will be posting more pics this week or next weak with the 12,000 winch, front and rear bumper. If any body was wondering $1,600 shipped with 5 tires, lug nuts, mounted and balanced.

Before I even googled the area code, I knew the answer. Looks good and I like looking at the style y'all have down there.

Very much appreciated bro and yeah Hawaii has its own little style and I'm proud of it, glad some of you guys enjoy it and encourage me unlike other forums where I was called "stupid" and said our style is pointless. So thanks cuz y'all are awesome
