Bought a new tow rig!!!

01 f550 cc xlt 7.3 manual trans 4wd with 337k miles one owner never tuned.... needs a lot of cleaning and some work!! Plan to use it to tow a camper and just use around the house I bought it cab chassis and found a use Cm flatbed on Craigslist!! Just wanted y'all opinions I've had 2 duramax's but this is my first powerchoke. This was my work truck for 4 years about 8 years ago when I worked for the construction company. I stayed in touch with the old boss and he sold it to me just to get it out of the yard

 

Wish I could find a nice used CM flatbed around here! They are the nicest quality in my opinion.

 

Yeah man this one came off a rolled truck it has some cosmetic flaws but nothing that a bfh and a welder can't fix!! It's 11' with gooseneck and receiver hitch, all led lights. I have 740$ for the bed and 4500$ for the truck. I think I'll have 7500$ in the truck by the time I get it how I want. I was already offered 10k but I can't replace it with anything decent for 10 so I turned it down lol

 

I remember how much I don't like diesel maintenance.... just did 4 gallon oil change and fuel filter 75$ later....

 

That is a cool truck! And an F550 to boot, wow. 337k and used hard, hope that thing doesn't need constant work, but with the age and mileage, it might.. good luck!

 

Yeah it needs a little maintenance.... but it runs good needs some front end work new ball joints and all that!! But once all said and done even if I have to put a refurb 7.3 in it they aren't to high anymore. And that's the best motor ford ever put in a diesel by far!!

 

I've got a little update I been workin on this thing slowly. I put a new clutch pedal assembly and pre bled slave/master cylinder combo and took the interior out pressure washed and reinstalled! Took the door stickers off and got the bed mounted. I have break lights and turn signals wired up but the wiring on the bed and the truck were both jacked up!!
