Cheap and Easy.
Probably not, but any time you change the front ride height there will be a different measurement on back axle for ride height depending on if the rails were level with the ground when you set it or setting at an angle, with the nose down the front axle essentially becomes a pivot point

In the interest of "going green" all the new ass hammers are now electric. You have any idea the number of polar bears the 2 stroke sex toys have killed?

Trying to decide what to do with this truck. The oil cooler is bad from what Ive been told. 3406B, 9 speed. Little over a million miles, been rebuilt. All new brakes. New clutch. Needs some tlc. I hate to sell it since it was the first truck I bought, but I could really use a truck with a small bunk. Like 36-42" range since my boy rides with me most of the winter, it would give him space to move around when we are sitting in line.
I'm torn on what to do with it.... Easiest route would be to trade it for a sleeper truck, but I don't know if anybody would want to do that. Its that, or spend the money, fix the issues and try to find a bunk for it. Not sure if I want to go through that trouble or not.

Oil cooler is cheap and easy but your going to bleed for a good small sleeper. Big sleepers are a dime a dozen and have almost zero value. Small ones are rare and bring good money. Had to give a 70" Ultra away just to get rid of it but a guy paid $4k for a 36" flat top.

Day cab trucks up here are worth a fortune over a truck with a bunk. Not sure why. Id rather have the bunk. But then again I'd rather have a bunk that I can stand in lol so maybe I'm thinking illogically.

I'm only hoping its the oil cooler as that is what was suggested to me first. Chance it could be a pitted sleeve as well I guess? Just need somebody to trade me for a truck with a 36" flat topLOL
If I knew I could drop it off at a shop and have it all fixed for 3-4 grand and be road ready I would.

As long as it's not a brakesaver truck, then an oil cooler job should be well less than 3-4k. They're on the outside of the block under the turbo and are pretty easy to do yourself. I think the last standard one I bought was $600.

The one we had put a gallon of oil on the floor in 4 seconds of run time....we had no water in it, and the bottom hose going into a bucket. New oil cooler, problem solved.
If you have water in the oil, it's not the cooler.
