Finally was able to spend some time on the truck. I pulled the old stuff, including the trans cross member, cleaned up the Cummins, and stuffed it in. I put the Cummins in with the tranny attached. Yeah, I know, One pissed off engine hoist. Because the Cummins is tall, I had to undo the front cab mounts and lift the cab a few inches. Also remember to leave the motor mounts loose on the brackets so you can get them lined up on the frame. This really was very simple. It was like the truck was made for the Diesel. Now I need to finish hooking up everything.
BTW- I had posted a Wanted Ad regarding the parts I still need. I had a bunch of reply's from overseas (Italy)and fear they are a scam. Beware, if you post ad's on Moparts, some of the reply's might no be legit.
