    I am trying to see how hard it would be to convert my 2016 365 daycab back to a regular road truck. I am in Houston . Any suggestions

    what is the truck currently? Are you talking about somebody putting a bunk back on it, or is it a dump truck or something?

    I assumed he is wanting to convert a daycab carhauler in to a non-carhauler “road” tractor. I believe @pavrom did this to a 389 Sleeper some time back.

    It’s not that hard the United road shop in Brunswick,GA did quite a few. A chop top 379/388/389 sleeper will attach to it. If you can get the ring that attaches the sleeper and cab from Peterbilt
