cool, I have an 80 RC SE equipped the same, 318, np435 with granny. When it's in 4 lo and in 1st gear, it really creeps slow! gotta pop my top this summer and put the roll bar back in!

all it needs now is to have 81-93 rear quarters fabbed on, then you would make a few guys wonder.

I have given serious thought to doing that! But its easier to change the clip and doors, plus I like the older grills better.
Damn nice truck 80ramcharger!

Congrats, looks like it's gonna be a fun truck. What wheel and tire combo are you running?

Re: Picked up a Ramcharger the other day - 04/05/14 01:39 AM
305/70 16 but the wheels are really narrow. I have a set of 285/70 17 I'm putting on 8" wide wheels.

I had to make myself promise not to create another project for myself. Lift kit, wheel and tire, motor & trans swap. Before I bought it I made myself promise to keep it as a daily driver type of deal.

thanks a lot guys! It kinda needs something cooler for wheels and tires though. Even though it's an SE, it has the base interior which according to the sales brochure was optional on the SE

It was my nephews truck and we have rebuilt almost everything under the truck over the last few years.

Put on the right doors today, nice to be able to roll the windows down. Hopefully do the front clip soon. Got new mufflers on it and got rid of the glass packs, doesn't sound like a hay truck anymore!
