    Yeah a lot of trucks didn’t. It was a factory option called the “Convenience Package” which included the tilt steering wheel.

    Buy some used plastic shipping crates and use busfreighter.com — they use the void under Grayhound Buses and ship terminal to terminal.

    Otherwise use shipnex.com — it’s a FedEx broker and they do heavy discounts.

    Nooo you don’t want the J-Shift or transmission out of that. In a collision or catastrophic event, the engine is designed to break off the engine mounts. Where does the mass of the engine have to go after it breaks off the mounts? The transmission. The torque converter. The flexplate. The bellhousing.

    I’m pretty sure this is how my torque converter got warped, the mass of the engine mangled the mating surface of the torque converter.

    Was just thinking it might very well have the remainder of what you need. A thought... nothing more and yeah before you say it Tyler, I imagine he could find a trans and trans case for under 1k lol

    Id take the seat back off and make it completely flat so it takes up less room.

    I still wouldnt touch that truck though. I had to sink some money into my truck when I got it in 2017 with 46k. Seals/belts/charcoal canister all went out like instantly once it started being driven often.

    I think 100-130k is the sweet spot for buying these trucks used.

    do you need a pic of my clock and how i see it day-2-day
    works great, never had issue of not seeing it
    maybe because i am just the 'right size' not too tall nor short and/or the tilt wheel is at the sweet spot
    IDK!!
