I have a DT466 sitting in my garage that will be going into the truck. Getting a couple upgrades, nothing crazy and will be a good bump in fuel economy as well.
Plus the price tag of the 915-920 series is more than I'm willing to spend right now. I'd love to have a HET, swap out the trans for a...
I remember the Hi-Low trailers and the Trail Manors. For the places we explore Vped it works great. Lots of desert terrain.
I'm picking up a m51 that I'll be using for this setup. With the wrecker around I can easily change setups before a trip. So turning the m51 into a tractor with a m313 or...

Main goals for the camper are the ability to explore to remote locations, specifically in the western US. A highway cruising speed of 55-60mph, sleeping for up to 4, normally 1-2, and...
Between the Spicer 6453 trans and the T1138 tcase you will have a .56 overdrive ratio, giving you a low rpm at 60-65mph with either 11" s or 395's, right around 1800. Depending on your power requirements you might want to consider a compound turbo setup
