    I was wondering what you can haul w that short trailer? And are you keeping the hopper I hope. But glad to see you spendin more time w your family that’s a great thing. And it’s your 359 but no way I’d change that B model out for that 5 e k. I have a 92 B model in my storage trailer lol. Actually I have the whole truck tore down and put up. W new frame rails. But I don’t have anywhere to put the dang thing back together. But I had a 2004 w a 475 in it and that B model would smoke it on a hill.

    Gerald google a company called Kustom Truck. They sell conversion kits for changing out motors. You send them the vin number for the motor that is in the truck and send them the vin number of the motor you want to put in. They will send you all the wiring conversion kit and motor mounts and other parts. They will also need the vin off the truck you want to put the motor in. The company is in Oregon.

    You can change up camera angles. Position the camera in the threshold of the cab and sleeper to show you shifting but can still see the dash and overlook the hood out to the road. How you show getting loaded, you could show dumping. When the time and money comes, upgrade things on the dump trailer such as maybe repaint it black or switch to aluminum wheels to match the truck, adding lights to it. The quarter frame is superior trailer. Able to haul the same as the long ones but fit where dump trucks can. Your in a great market.
