if your going to to through all the trouble of converting it back to stock bed and dullies you might as well but a truck that already has that on there; and rust is always a bad thing no matter how little there is. i can say with much certinty you can find a better truck for the money.

Well, converting it back isnt going to be much trouble at all, im trading the flat bed on it for a regular bed, and i already have a set of wheels and tires, so thats no big deal, and i have looked at many trucks, and they are all about the same shape wise. im 16, and its just going to be a work/play truck, so it doesnt have to be mint for me.

And yes, it does include the plow and its in mint shape, so i plan on selling the whole thing for 800 or so, and using that for a 4 or a 6" lift, havent decided yet. Also, i will sell the whole dually kit for around 200 or so.

so, i plan on buying it and trading the flatbed for a stock bed, selling the plow for about 800, selling all the dually stuff for 200.

I also plan on a 4" lift and 35s.
Also, some small pump mods. what can i get away with with a stock 727? Is it really worth the 400 for a new converter?

Ya, thats what i was thinking too, i think its a great buy for 2500, then minus plow and dually kit about 1500.

Still wondering how much bombing the 727 can take?
