Full frame off, 12valve Cummins swapped cucv.
Few updates. Bought some new k30 hydroboost lines and everything worked perfect with the Cummins engine. Installed some 4.5inch bumpstops from ord (plan on adding landing pads for them on the spring plates).Finished bleeding brakes, mounted battery tray and took the truck out for a spin!
