    Is that a “new” truck or the one that got all tangled up with the trailer?

    Looks good either way.

    Turned out sharp. You paint it yourself or a shop do it?

    How long did it take? Seems like it was down quite a while?

    The cab was black, so only hood and sides were painted. It was done almost 2 months ago, but it was sitting, because it had some electrical issues. The problem ended up being some bent pins on the harness connector

    I am kinda regretting doing this whole thing. I was expecting to spend about 10k, but when everything was done, it went up to $18k.
    Now I have two other fully rebuilt trucks and don't really need this one, unless I just keep it as a spare. Maybe will post it for sale. Decisions, decisions...

    Question @DUNE-T so when you hunted down the new/used cab. Did you only look at ones that were wired for the same motor you have?

    Curious to see if you bought a cab that was wired for a D12 instead of the N14.
