    1998 FLD120 flat top.
    Detroit series 60
    10 speed
    3.73 rears
    Mileage is at least 1,114,000. ECM is not original and the new one is password locked. Odometer didn’t work when I bought it so who knows the real number.

    Everything original except fifth wheel, alternator, batteries and brakes when I bought it. Neglected and abused here too. I have replaced the following. Did 75% myself.

    all tires
    All filters and fluids
    Rebushed rear suspension
    Rebuilt shift tower
    Carrier bearing
    Both rear axle breathers
    Alignment
    All new airbags

    I did the following:
    Replaced dash skeleton, few gauges and switches. Trimmed airline ends
    Rebuilt doors completely interior and internals
    Replaced drivers seatbelt
    New hood and bumper
    New cab leveling valve
    New cab airbags
    New air dryer
    New airline and cord assembly
    New 1/4 fenders
    Completely new wiper assembly. Everything except the fluid tank.
    Used right dash panel where radio and controls are
    New air tank drains
    New air governor
    New foot brake valve assembly

    New engine is being finished and will hopefully ship beginning next week. Will do motor mounts and clutch. New radiator is sitting on Dayton Freight’s dock. AV-TEKK CAC os ordered. Forgot to order AC condenser, just ordered. New hoses, heater hoses, clamps etc.

    This spring will replace interior after Killamat is installed. Got pictures sent into Daycab Company for that. Changing color from that ugly mustard color to black or grey. New seats.
    Custom cabinets (well, as custom as I am capable lol). Paint this summer or fall after I replace fender extensions and find the proper missing top fairings.
