CUMMINS 12 VALVE TURBO DIESEL CONVERSION!You are looking at a 2003 Ford F350 with a Dodge Cummings Diesel and 5 speed manual transmission. The truck is in excellent condition. It has a 4 inch suspension lift, 20" chrome wheels, and brand new 35" mud terrain tires (About 95% tread remaining). The exterior of the truck is in great shape with the exception of one small ding in the left rear of the bed, behind the tire(see pics). Other than that, the truck still shines like the day it came off the showroom floor with no other major dents or dings. The interior is also in great shape. The driver's seat has a little wear(see pics), but no rips, tears, or stains on the seats or carpet. Everything works as if it came from the factory such as, the ice cold A/C, heater, sunroof, power windows, locks, etc.... All of the factory guages work except the tachometer and trans temp. I also added to 2 pillar guages for boost pressure and exhaust gas temperature. Everything about this truck is done right! I wouldn't hesitate to get in it and drive it all the way across the country and back. Autocheck:The autocheck or carfax say that the truck was reported by an auto auction as having frame damage. I sent the truck to a local mechanic shop and had them inspect it, and I also inspected it myself. There is no frame damage on the truck at all. I called the auto auction that labeled the truck as having damage (Adesa Auto Auction) and asked them what the deal was. Apparently any vehicle that sells through them that comes with a suspension lift kit is labeled as "altered suspension and frame". Autocheck sees this as "Frame Damage". Please don't let this scare you. I've been driving the truck for the past year and it drives perfectly straight with no issues. SPECIFICS OF SWAP:I bought it about a year ago with and it had a blown 6.0 motor in it. I took out the Ford motor, transmission, and transfer case, and replaced it with a '89 Cummins, NV4500 transmission (the 5 speed that dodge used from about 1994-2002), and 241 transfer case. I bought the conversion kit from fordcummins.com so that everything would look as factory as possible. Everything looks professionally done. The motor mounts bolted right into place, intercooler, charging system, A/C, turbo, etc.... The pedals inside the truck are factory ford pedals with the dodge slave master cylinder mated to it. The transmission was completely rebuilt with new synchronizers, so all of the gears shift nice and smooth. Both driveshafts were custom made at a local driveshaft shop, both are installed and 4x4 does work. It does have a brand new HX40 turbo, and it uses the factory Ford exhaust. Alot of people told me that I should put the straight exhaust, but it's kinda nice to be able to go through a drive through and not have to turn it off to order, or to be able to have a conversation while driving down the road without yelling. Everything that was done to this truck was done correctly and I tried to make it as close to factory as possible. The only reason I'm selling it is to free up some money so I can begin my next build.This is not my first Cummins Swap that I've built and sold on Ebay, so please feel free to check out my feedback and have some peace of mind when bidding.
