Ultimate shop truck! 5.9 Cummins bagged dually air ride GMC slammed lowered

Description for Chevrolet C/K Pickup 3500 1993

Hello. you are looking at a 93 Chevy Silverado 3500 1 ton dually. I bought this truck bone stock and completely rebuilt it and customized it to how you see it today. I am 35yrs old and own/operate a successful Hotrod shop. This isn't some hacked together teenage minitruckers project built in a driveway. It is well engineered. designed and built with safety and performance in mind. I wanted to build the "Ultimate Shop Truck" for my hotrod business. I wanted something that could haul or tow whatever I threw at it and look badass doing it. I never planned on selling this truck but as you know. life has a way of presenting opportunities so here it is for sale. I would like to disclose that before I got it. the truck was involved in a light frontend wreck and was considered totaled (doesn't take much to total a 20yr old truck. ) It was hit on the drivers front corner. New sheetmetal (fenders. hood. grille. headlights) were installed. The entire truck was repainted "work truck white" The paint is good driver quality and cleans up/shines bright. This is why it has a rebuilt title. No frame damage. alignment issues. etc. I would not have bought this truck if it had issues like that. It is also a factory 5 speed which is very hard to find these days. The heart of this beast is a 1995 Cummins 5. 9 12 valve diesel engine. This is the highly desireable Bosch P7100 P-pump motor. It was pulled from a Schoolbus and is the higher 215 horsepower model. The engine has right at 100k on it which is nothing for a Cummins. The killer dowel pin (KDP) was fixed and the engine was re-gasketed. It fires up and runs like a champ. It is backed by an NV4500 5 speed manual transmission from a 2000 Chevy truck. The transmission has approx. 70k miles on it. Power is put down via a Southbend clutch and flywheel and hydraulic clutch. Very smooth shifting. The motor and trans are integrated into the truck extremely well. ALL FACTORY GAUGES WORK including the tachometer along with 3 A-pillar mounted gauges that monitor boost pressure. fuel pressure. and exhaust temp. The engine has a custom fuel plate and custom downpipe. A brand new Dodge/Cummins radiator and intercooler are used along with the factory GM A/C Condensor and power steering cooler. Dual SPAL electric fans keep everything cool. The factory hydraboost works great and is powered by a Cummins p/s pump from a 2002 Dodge. Heat and a/c both work correctly. The driveshaft was completely rebuilt and had new u-joints and support bearing installed. It is hooked to the original GM corporate 14 bolt full float rear axle. The rearend was completely disassembled and rebuilt with new Timken bearings. Brakes and hubs were all rebuilt. The rear gear was replaced with 3. 73s so highway speeds are no problem. A brand new fuel tank. fuel pickup and fuel lines were also installed. Exhaust exits through a 3" pipe and out a 4" miter cut stack. It has a great sound and is not overbearing in the cab. You can still listen to music. make phone calls and talk to the people riding along without yelling. The suspension/chassis of this truck is nothing short of bulletproof to match the engine. The frame has been plated/boxed from the cab back. The entire chassis was sealed and top coated with heavy duty truck bed liner. The rear c-notch and bridge are all heavy gauge and are braced with additional fore and aft tubular braces. There is a flip-up gooseneck hitch that is ready for whatever you hook to it. There is also a Class 5 receiver hitch under the bumper. The front suspension is completely custom built and uses tubular upper and lower control arms with center mounted shocks. The hubs/brakes have been converted to 3/4 ton rotors which eliminates a huge amount of rotating mass (approx. 35 lbs at each corner!) All rotors. calipers. bearings. balljoints are all new. The factory sway bar is used with energy suspension bushings. The track width up front has been narrowed 3" on each side which allows for a full turning radius at a much lower ride height. This truck rides and handles like a sports car! You will forget you are driving a 7000lb dually. The rear suspension uses a parallel 4 link (36" bars) and a watts link. There is literally zero side to side movement of the rear axle throughout the entire suspension cycle. Airlift Dominator 2600 airbags are used at all 4 corners along with heavy duty Monroe gas shocks at all 4 corners. There are also axle limiting straps installed on the rear axle so you can easily raise this truck on a lift and not have to worry about the rear axle hanging there by the airbags and shocks only. There are 2 5 gal. air tanks and 2 Viair 480 compressors. All air management is located at the rear of the truck along with 2 yellow top Optima batteries. Everything including the water traps. relays. etc. are easily accessed for service if needed. There is a Dakota digital monitor installed in the overhead console in the cab that displays all 4 corners and the tank pressure. There are 2 switches for the air ride Front and Rear. The dump valves have all been calibrated so that when you lower the truck it goes down very gently and at the same time (front and rear hit the ground at the same time) All air line is 3/8" DOT. SMC valves and water traps. This system is very well installed and has no issues. leaks of any kind. Every nut and bolt on this truck is Grade 8. The front and rear suspension are both completely adjustable with Heims joints so it is totally dialed in. Wheels are genuine 22. 5" Alcoa semi wheels that were milled down to 22". They are installed with American Force wheel adapters. not the no-name junk from China. 265/35/22 extended weight capacity tires are in like new condition. I had this truck professionally aligned so there is no weird tire wear or pulling left or right. Nice smooth and straight. The rear wheels are a zero offset style semi wheel so the rear axle didn't need to be narrowed and the dually fenders are not modified. The inner wheels are stock 16" wheels with E-rated towing tires so you can haul just about whatever you want. The body of this truck is very straight and solid. I wanted it to still look like a work truck so no modifications have been done to the outside. I added LED cab lights and flip-up tow mirrors from a 2000 Dodge Ram that have been painted body color. The entire bed floor has been raised to allow room for the rear c-notch. The bedliner was modified and re-installed. This way you can still use this truck like a TRUCK! Slide in parts. haul wood. whatever you want. No goofy hump in the middle or weird covers. This truck was originally a Western Hauler conversion truck so the interior is plush. It is red leather captains seats up front and a red leather bench in the back. 64 Impala steering wheel. Power door locks. power windows all work great. There is a touchscreen 7" CD player that is also a DVD monitor. It has Bluetooth so you can sync your phone. There is also a rearview camera so backing up to a trailer is a breeze! There is also a 150db train horn so everyone will hear you coming. Here is a link to video of the rear back up camera in action. The idea was to be able to approach a trailer low. engage the hitch and raise the rear up. all without getting out of the cab. https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=yeHeZ3Qb1mcHere is a link to video of the truck idling after loading a classic car into the trailer. It was approx. 10 degrees out that day! https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=K5o_J6p0_CgAll in all this truck is awesome. I would consider it to be one of the nicest Cummins swapped Chevys on the road. It needs nothing and is ready to work or show. Fly in and drive home. Use it for your car or bike shop and be the envy of every guy at the shows. Or dial in the bodywork and a new paintjob and have a full on show truck. I have put over 2000 trouble free miles on this truck and have had no issues. I have pulled a multitude of trailers including an enclosed car hauler (7000lbs loaded) and also a 40ft gooseneck (15000lbs loaded) This truck didn't even break a sweat. It averages 17mpg. It is located in Liberty Township. Ohio about 25 miles north of Cincinnati. I have a clear Ohio title in my name. All decals will be removed prior to pick up. Buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping. A $500 deposit is required within 24hrs of auction ending. Balance due within 7 days. Truck doesn't leave the garage until all funds have cleared. I have tried to describe this truck as thoroughly as possible but I'm sure I have forgotten some details. Please email with any questions. Thanks for looking. I will also consider trades.
