man i have so many ideas of grill work no one will ever pay for? its tough. there are way worse things than that this whole truck is wrong need a lif and 37's for starters larger tire to pull of larger truck color is horid on both of them- white "really" oh well next time
from alan-you guys are brutal FYI all the trucks are wheeled except these buses.
It has a 08 Duramax hence the IFS.
They seat 14 to 18 people so it only needs to compare only to a bus so you choose school bus or this. Bus 40 is Not my cup of tea but they get there. The bus beat my wifes...
I have done this swap
ALan Podvin here yes its easy do it. I ordered the pedal assembly and trans from AU junk yard even though it was wrong side everything bolted in under dash. I dont remember the engine light situation but I think it was all good.

4.7 swap
what years are all htese things- I have much engine swap experience and believe this is a waste of time unless you supercharge.

I wanted to do running and driving tests on everything else...
