I've seen a couple of trucks like that. They used to be K30s until the PO sold the Dana 60 and installed a Dana 44 and they still want the K30 price. I even saw a CC K30 with 1/2T axles. Sad thing is some people will still grab it.

Wish it was closer. 5500 seems decent. How can you tell it has a 44 front?

My neighbor has a K30 sitting behind his house. It was a former local fire truck that he removed the service bed and installed a standard DRW bed. It has sat for probably 5 years in the same spot. Kills me to see it rotting away like that. But, you can't even talk to him about it. It's always "I'm working on it".

The CL truck has a D60, according to the pictures.

I think you need that @bucket

I just bought a house and had to move ALL of my stuff when gas shot up to $4/gallon. That's 28 different vehicles, 2+ semi truck loads of parts and enough household stuff for a family of twelve. Oh yeah, and a tractor and 4 mowers. I'm poor now!

Nope, my current budget is simply squat, lol. It's a shame too, because I don't even have anything parked on grass now. Even the parts cars are on concrete.
