07 Kenworth T800 turned into W9

From the windshield back it’s the same truck... but I’m pretty sure T8 was set back axle...

 

Not worth the trouble. T800 is a setback axle, W900 is set forward.

Would need a #### ton of work. Axle relocation, steering box might need to be relocated etc.

If you want a tall hood, a T800H hood would probably be the simplest option.

 

T800H hoods are hens teeth to come acrosst last I ever heard

 

I don't believe they were too popular in the US. I seem to recall being told the majority of the T800H trucks built were sold in BC.

 

If it took out that much stuff its not worth fixing
Your insurance company will more than likely total it ..
Even though you said to move on but why would you try to even build some aboration like that by cross breding the 2
Just go buy what you want which it sound's like you want a W9

 

If the accident destroyed the ENTIRE BODY , why bother trying to repair it ?
It’s totaled .

And trying to transplant a cab that was never designed for that frame and won’t fit since it has a set back steer axle .

Even if it isn’t totaled , which I’m sure it is , or if you didn’t have insurance coverage , all the down time lost revenue trying to repair the truck would easily pay for a replacement truck .

Get out your calculator .

are you grossing $5k a week ?
Times 10 or 20 weeks to repair the wrecked truck .
A lot longer if you wanna move the axle and steering box and brake lines and graft on a cab and hood that were never meant to fit on that frame .

 

i think you would be dissapointed to see what price that truck would bring... sure it doubled in price... a year ago.. the market has taken a huge #### since then and the price of used trucks has fallen by 60% or more
