Not bad at all.

Those old 80's era Cats were something else in their day.

 

Howdy Northern Brother.

Glad to see that thing's still coming along.

Keep up the good work.

 

Layin' Low in San Antone. I went and got a Real Estate license and Kenny went on being a truck.

 

I think that frame will be a touch long for a single drive axle. You sure you want to do that?

I would not be any good if I did not ask you this honest question to make you think about how long your drive shaft is going to be and where your 5th wheel will need to go.

On the other hand that long frame might actually be good for a sleeper to go on behind the cab perhaps? I know those day cabs are awesome, but if you happen to be caught out on a long, long day and need a nap, throwing a bench across the seats don't really do it these days.

 

Put a 30K RV wheel on it. It goes without saying be aware of your frame interfering with some of the larger 5th wheel RV frames.

I base my post on a opinion you probably do not want to fool around with the full size 5th wheel now that you have taken off the double axle and have plans for the single.

A receiver hitch ring on the rear will go very well back there.

The long frame might give you a room for water tank to feed your RV plus a nice APU/Generator to feed everything.

The more I think about this the more I see.

Keep us posted. I wish you the best of luck!

That's my excuse too. It's 93 with 92% humidity! An hour of work on the truck after an 8-10 hr day is too much for my old broken ###
