awesome!

i saw a dodge 2500 at truck fest that was a trail rig, as long as you dont mind body damage and dont need the articulation it should make a nice platform.

That's called a visor.

Ok, I'm starting to see the body sink a little.



But OP, it's a nice clean little truck, I'm thinking of getting one like it for a tow rig also. :)

Clean that thing up a lil and that would be an awesome truck. Now 38 inch tires...... that gonna cost a pretty penny when they need to be replaced.

i thought they had problems with the 94's cause that was the first year for the powerstroke? I had a 93 Turbo Diesel and regret selling it like no other.
