Jim B Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Nice choice on the 6V71T. Is that from Auslowe? If it is, be careful, the turbo crossover pipe doesn't line up with the turbo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobus Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 Jim , i have see it guy,s now i have a problem , i have seen a very nice picture of a GMC Crackerbox with a movingvan , its a single drive from greyhound i have the decals almost for a year in house [ from jerry reeter ] can i switch the chassis and wil be no problem for the TAT 2018 , here is the single drive chassis if you say no than i use the tandem chassis but no movingvan but it looks so good jacobus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Jacobs if you decide to use the moving van I would go with the single axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotnitro? Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Sorry to hear about your sister my family's prayers go out to you and your family also. Really appreciate your taking the time to post this build , itll help me when I start the GMC over the winter . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Jacobus Prayers and condolences from to yours on the loss of your Sister ! It’s a hard choice between single or tandem they both look good. You may want to look at it by what you have in your collection of trucks have how many single cabs do you have versus how many tandems.
