That'll probably work ..should cut out dairy while taking it....stick w/water if you can or it'll have trouble absorbing right.

Opinion needed

Look at this first
Facebook Post

Possible intention,
Buy junk for was less than they want. Remove rusty as crap cab and bed and send to scrapper. Install bed and cab from my truck. Swap computer and any other things needed for swap.

End result is have a truck that can carry / tow more than a weeks worth of groceries.

Question is what is the chance the frame/ drive train is worthy of reuse when the rest of the truck is so poor?

Link no worky ^^^

But I 've been in the same situation with the 98. Requires too much ambition for me. If the truck was a 70's model, I'd have what it takes mentally,,,but not a gen 10.

But I wouldn't do it unless you planned to do something radical to the drive train. IMO, that's the real limiting factor on our trucks.

How about a re-start on your post noobs..

Anyway...I'd have to say no...unless there was more to it. Like say you bent the frame in your current truck...or it broke in two.

If it's perfectly fine ...I wouldn't.
