Thanks for the mention guys! I'm still messing with my swap, getting stuff like I want it, and goin for more power! :D Should wind up around 350hp and however much torque comes with that....


Is that a 4bt or a 6? Kinda hard to tell.

Well I am Hear and I been very Busy with Training with State Guard as I jumped both feet back in and as a Recruiter.
Sorry for no Reply status as for the Comment on the CUCV cummins swap I installed dana 61 Front and Dana 70 rear Axles
in it 3.07 gear ratio. Also the front axle leaf spring's been updated to 5 leaf because of weight diff from 6.2l diesel to the 5.9L Cummins out of the Freightliner FL80. If that Helps and as for the comment for He No I am Not a He I a Female.
I a 91Bravo with Hotel8 cert and 88Mike along with 88November MOS and few more! as for photo of me I dont post my photo on the Net due to OPSEC.

My bad :oops: :oops: I didn't do my research.

Also, I meant nothing negative about the no reply thing. Just that epicwell could have searched out your build thread and gotten the same info, instead of asking and waiting for a response from you.

Thank you for your service, and your response.
