    When you built the transmission did you upgrade to the 6 speed?

    Looking at an 05 c4500 300k+ engine and trans has 50k miles what do you think? Did you like the engine, trans, and power on yours? How it rides wouldn’t bother me just want good power and reliability and decent gas mileage. Thanks let me know please trying to decide between a lbz 3500 dually and a 2005 4500

      I pull a four car trailer, so it was way too underpowered for me. It would drop down to 45-50 miles an hour on Hills.

      @@Floridamuscle which truck/engine do you recommend, to be honest I’m trying to stay under 20k. I’m starting a business where I need to haul a class b rv, or a few cars maybe 3 max, piece of machinery small skid steer for example.
