    Yep, lots of guys here use the acerts to build an engine with.
    I keep hearing the 5EK's are junk, but mine has been a good one, may blow tomorrow, who knows.

    I screwed up. I have a friend that rolled his 98 pete over, with a low mile on rebuilt 5EK, lower miles on the 18 spd, and 46 double locker rears on air trac from a 2007. I found him a cab and sleeper, and everything he needed, which he bought and had a shop swap it over.
    the shop went belly up before finishing it, so he just bought a new truck and offered it to me for 15,000, which I turned down.
    I got to thinking last night, I don't want a pete, but have a use for all the components, so called him this morning. yep it is already gone. lol

    ive been searching all over the web for dealerships in the states that will fully custom your trucks like Peterbilt Steve does out in Tulsa at rush truck center . Is there any KW dealerships that will custom build you a truck so I don’t have to buy a truck then take it to a third party to do all my custom work ?

    Please somebody point me in the right direction please

    I would imagine any Kenworth dealer will do it, he just adds accessories and maybe a little custom paint if not done at the factory. Start by calling your local dealer.

    10.4 reason I ask because this is my first time owning a KW and I just don’t see no dealer promoting it so your saying pretty much any dealer will do what he does ?

    I would sure think so, you’re offering them an opportunity to make money. If you can’t find a dealership that will do what you want, I can give you a contact.
