There are some relatively narrow Grumman straight axle step vans out there as well as some 70s motor home straight axles that may work.
There has been some talk about bushing the kingpins to fit off a straight axle P30 or 3500HD. I'd like to give it a try, but I don't want to give up my truck for that long while a fabricator figures it out. Painter has now had it for 6 weeks when he quoted a 1 week turnaround time. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 16 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 16 | Can you tell me more about your 42 I'm doing a 45 and want to put in a 350 .
