I like the idea of gaining room for a bigger RV box without having to extend the frame which I have been kicking around. I would like to add my voice to the call out to you to work up a thread on modifying the air filter arrangement and the relocation of the coolant overflow tank ect.
How much added room/length did you gain?
What is the height of the transmission top to the frame top?
I need working dimensions to figure clearances and overall RV camper box dimensions.
I believe that M1088's are a tad bit shorter in the rear part of the frame length than the M 1083's, but
I have never measured them both to be certain. Perhaps we could do a pen pal version of verification here? Perhaps measuring from the rear leaf spring pivot center to the end of the frame rail?
Great job by the way and welcome
I look forward to hearing more about your adventures and projects
