Bought a tow rig

[nblehm]

2005 2500 5.9 cummins auto. 250k miles but has a recent transmission replacement. In good shape for the year, interior is decent. Has rust in the rear fenders that I need to fix.

I have spent years on here saying I dont need a diesel and will never own one again, but here I am My excuse was we got a new puppy that is going to be big and my kid and dog wont fit in the cab of a J10. This was cheaper than most gas trucks.


Has a 3" rough country lift the guy I bought it from just put on. He owned it for 2 years and only put 2500 miles on it. Had a camper in the bed.


My plans. I am going to take the rough country lift off, probably replace the front with thuren extra soft front coils and fox or bilstein shocks. Take the block out of the rear, and replace the rear rough country shocks. Fix the rust in the bed. New wheels and tires. Add a muffler since its straight piped after the cat. Looking at pop up tent style bed toppers. Kind of a overlanding/tow rig type deal.



Only thing I have done for it was to make my dog a platform under the back seats.
