Wait a minute. That's a Megacab dually, right? And it has a HEMI? I thought 3500 Megacabs only comes with the Cummins. Am I wrong?

here's the deal... i took a 2500 srw, added arrowcraft dual wheel adapters, ebay bought dually fenders, and hardware, ebay bought tires and wheels.stock single wheel center caps (since they look better than dually caps ) pace edwards jackrabbit tonneu, which i modified 4'' back to allow for the stacks to run through, finished that off with diamond plate cover, to hide the gap... line-x bed, bed rail caps custom cut and elevated to conceal the tonneu edges, since the dodge has a tapered bed. custom made rocker panel lighting, using diamond plate, and kenworth marker lights, added 5000lb super springs to the rear, custom painted to match headlight covers. billet grill upper and lower, added the sport bumber over stock chrome slt bumber, (fit like a glove ).full set of superlift shocks, bores bumber guide lights, and all the chrome......and thats just the outside..........so now i have a 1 ton dually HEMI......................

Oh, and srt 10 hood is in paint as we speak.............

Nice truck! But the gas in IL is about $.50 more than most everywhere else!

workin,

The truck is definitely one of a kind. Not too much, but definitely looks heavy duty and road worthy.

Do I think I hear that maybe you wish it only had 6 cylinder???
