New to me ‘87 379 EXHD

Just bought an ‘87 379exhd. Trucks in pretty decent shape. 3406c, 13 against the dash, 4:25 rears, 3rd lift axle, small flat top bunk, 285”wb, wet kit.
I know, you’re saying “4:25 rears, what the crap? Well it’s a double od and it’s got a 16’ dump bed on it. Anything in particular good or bad about a ‘87 379?

 

First I was like, that bed or that bunk, is outta place. Me too, never seen a boxed out, flat top Pete dump truck. It grew on me. Lots of dump trucks in my area and no boxed out ones. If the bunk was any bigger, it may look like ####, but things grow on me. Least there’s no having to alter your stacks for bed clearance, with the bunk. If I want or need to, I can remove the bed in a little more than an hour. Put a 5th wheel on in another hour or so. Not that big of a job.

 

My apologies it’s not a 3406c but rather a 4MG, B model. This is my first Cat engine in my own truck. Rest of them are BCIII 400, SC290, N14 Celect and 12.7 DDEC2.
