Thanks for your reply. My Lo-Tech Ford is a 100% owner labor machine, and what I can barter, trade or buy at a junk yard for. It has a single 23,500 lb rear axle on a very short (120") wheelbase low cab forward chassis. It originally had a street sweeper mounted on it, but now is a cab and chassis. The upside is it only has 33,000 miles on a 6bt/Allison with a 2 speed rear gear with a 4.70/5.30 something ratio. Plans are to increase the power of the Cummins to the point I can cruise at 70. I plan to modify or build a trailer as a toy hauler with a stinger 5th wheel so that I can still use most of the trucks wheelbase for a flat bed. As I am in the HVAC business the toter project is on hold for a couple of months.
