It'd be hard to make it functional if you did it, don't see any kits designed for our trucks with the Cummins. Had a CDC shaker hood on my Mustang and loved it.

like rip said I think it would be difficult to make it functional, but it would be cool

I built a functional shaker on my 04 and sent the pix to 0524VHO. After I sent them I realized that I tossed most of the parts with a container of prototypes and parts to the dump.

I am gonna be now.

Looks good.

No big deal, but one day if you have time, maybe you could compose a parts list of everything involved?

I do have some fiberglas blanks for the top. Its pretty easy...I did the molds all free hand in my shop...only one measurement was taken. That was the hole in the hood. I made the rest fit according to that hole. The pan was made out of steel...too heavy for a final part. I poured a mold for that to be made from abs...I think that might still be around here too. I will look around and see what there is over the Holidays and if anyone is interested...I can post parts/pix and dimensions. Rather see it out there then in the trash. Its a look that you either like or hate.
