Progress Update On 55 Dodge/Fargo Pickup


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all, I know this is not the truck side, but I have spent so much time over the years on this side, I feel I need to post this here too.

Today swapped cabs from 55 1 ton frame to 55 1/2 ton chassis, all went well, myself and 1 Buddy did the lifting, while my Son Jordan watched over.

I had 1 big surprise, the trans had filled with water, this was fairly new, as next to no rust developed, some flushed out trans, and filled with gear oil for now, not sure how it will be, but will find out, when the time comes, good thing I needed to pull stick shift cover, or would never have known, and winter is coming.

Lots of work ahead, my Fargo engine is all greasy, but is supposed to run very well, and was used on a regular basis until 6 years ago.

Here are a few pics of todays fun and games, I think my truck has potential...BTW, not sure if it will be a Fargo. or Dodge at this point
