Up for sale is my custom built 1992 Dodge Cummins Crew cab. It started out as an extended cab long bed truck. In
2001 it was stripped down to the bare frame to begin the build to make it into a crew cab. The chassis was
stretched and reinforced. The cab came from a 1980 forest service truck from California. It was sand blasted down
to bare metal to make sure there was no rust anywhere. The cab and rear doors are from the 1980 truck. Everything
else is 1992. It is titled and vin'd as a 1992. All the 92 interior was installed, along with power seats from a
Ford super duty. The center console is a locking unit from Tuffy. Everything is power, including the rear doors.
During the build a power sunroof from a Mercedes was installed. It does not leak at all. Never has. The truck is
100% rust free. Not a spot anywhere. It has Buckstop bumpers front and rear. I have the brush guard, but it is not
currently installed. Right after the truck was built it was photographed for Buckstops website. I have included
some of those photos. The photos of the truck with the original bed are old photos. I no longer have the bed for
the truck.
The engine is a 12 valve Cummins turbo diesel and the transmission is a 5 speed manual Getrag. It has a Dana 60
front with Chevy crossover steering, and the rear is a disc brake Dana 80 from a 2001 Ram. It has 3.55 gears. Last
fall all the u-joints and brakes were replaced. Clutch is in good shape and everything works flawlessly. It has a
4" lift with near new 35" BFG all terrains on 16.5" aluminum wheels.
Last fall the original engine was replaced with one that had fewer miles. The new engine has 120k, and before it
was installed it got a bunch of new gaskets replaced, the killer dowel pin fixed and new main seals. I also had new
75 hp injectors, and a new Holset HX35 turbo installed at that time. Other than those two items, the engine is
stock. The truck has driven about 2500 miles since all this work was done.
As far as extras, the truck has a straight pipe exhaust, a Pacbrake exhaust brake, onboard air compressor and rear
airbags with controls and gauge inside the cab. The bed has a hidden gooseneck hitch. The bed surface is Trex deck
and it's seen some use. The truck was built for work. The bed was originally built to dump, and still could if a
hydraulic cylinder were to be installed. All the original bed mounts are still there, so putting a factory bed back
on it would be an easy thing to do.
On to the bad. The clearcoat is starting to peel in a few places, mainly on the hood. I did my best to show it in
the pictures. There is one spot of minor damage in the front passenger corner by the bumper where the truck hooked
a fence post. It has minor scratches here and there, but no major damage. Its never been wrecked or in any kind of
accident. Mechanically there are only 2 things wrong with this truck. The cruise control does not work, and the
speedometer bounces around. I'm pretty sure it needs a new cable. It just turned 200k, but with the speedo acting
up, the actual mileage is around 210k.

NHTSA probing Ram recall pace, communication
Tue, 28 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced that it's looking into Chrysler Group's handling of a pair of recalls affecting roughly one million Ram pickup trucks. Reuters is reporting that the regulatory agency is focusing on the availability (or lack thereof) of parts and "poor communications" from the automaker in its investigation.
"Customers have been advised in accordance with the regulations governing recalls," Chrysler spokesman Eric Mayne told Reuters via email. "We are continually replenishing our supply of replacement parts. Chrysler Group regrets any inconvenience our customers may have experienced."
NHTSA disagrees, arguing that the recalls, which affect 972,000 trucks from 2003 to 2012, are being delayed by the lack of parts.
Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes
Tue, 01 Jul 2014General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."
Dodge to reveal Hellcat-powered Challenger in Detroit?
Fri, 10 Jan 2014On top of all the other performance car debuts slated for next week's Detroit Auto Show, we might be able to add one more to the list - the new, supercharged Hellcat V8 from Chrysler. According to new reports, the rumored 640-horsepower mill is likely to cross the Motor City stage in the engine bay of a Dodge Challenger.
As AllPar points out, though, there may be more news than just the fire-breathing engine. While we've seen spy photos of the Hellcat testing under the hood of the current Challenger, there's a very fair chance that it won't arrive until the muscle car is refreshed later this year. The question now is whether that refresh will be shown off alongside the new engine in Detroit, or if it'll be saved, perhaps for the New York Auto Show.
Other details dug up by AllPar include potential transmissions for the supercharged engine - the Mopar-minded site is expecting an eight-speed automatic or a Tremec six-speed manual. Prices, meanwhile, could be in the same elevated range as the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, at $70,000 to $80,000.
