<p>[QUOTE="puncher, post: 2277655, member: 38979"]If the truck in your avatar is the truck in question, it's a 359 with a high rise sleeper which was first installed on some of the numbered 359's in 1986, and later on most 379's, so it has been added. I don't recall ever seeing external luberfiners on a 379, only 359's, also if you look on the side of the fenders at the amber marker lights that is a 359 feature, along with a little mesh looking step on the bottom back of the fender(only on the metal hoods) also 359's had external rubber elbow ducts going to the breather(s) from a cut out of the hood, 379's had the hidden ducts running behind the cowl, and the back of the hood was straight with out the cut out. There are other things to distinguish the two but these are enough to make up your mind as to what it is.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
