Thoughts on this truck

Keep looking. 8 months ago bought my 1999 W900L mid roof, N14 redhead, 3:55 on tall 24.5, 13 speed and wet line with 740k on clock for $28,500. Hardly any blow by. Bought from local guy that used it to pull walking floor for his cow farm.

 

How much was that rebuild? Just wondering for myself in the future.

 

Well I had one of the shop mechanics do it, but I did a lot of the small things to save both money and time. Did rings, pistons, liners, bearings, heads, injectors, turbo, harmonic balancer, thermostats, plus some minor stuff like an idler bearing and some other stuff I'm not thinking of right now.

All told I spent about $14,000, but like a say, I did a lot of stuff that it didn't really need, just cuz we were in there. A basic inframe kit for and N14 is around $2,000 from several different brands (I used Federal Mogul). Reman heads were $650 each from Cummins. And then you can add more stuff till you're either satisfied or broke, whichever comes first.
