Does it have a really short wheel base? If so no suspension will ride good. Drove a single axle Pete daycab around the block and thought I would need a kidney transplant when I got back.
Truckers, lets see your rigs!

Not flat, straight. It's pretty much a straight line from the cowl to the grille, the green truck, and most others, has a steeper slope off the cowl for 10" or so and then straightens out.

Yup, short and solid mounted cab. Guess my expectations were too high.

What's the obsession with the flat glass/hood/doors guys? I have a couple friends that seem to care only about that. First thing they mention. I don't understand it I guess. Only difference I see is the curved glass seem to have better visibility. They make it out like its a make or brake part of the truck

Cheap and Easy.
T600 curved glass, hood rolls up on back to meet up with cab.
T600 Flat glass, hood is flat at the back edge.

So the difference is in the glass. Someone has put a curved glass hood on the truck.

Details on the headlights?
I'd love a set of headlights with a "smoked" look. I'm thinking there's a lot of painting in my future....

You are correct I've got the same for my w9 also a set of 5x7 in my binder. Wicked light. Way cheaper than jw speakers and they look kinda goofy.

Just sent a DD13 down the road. 300k miles, injection pump came apart and sent alum through the entire fuel system including the fuel tanks. $12,000-$15,000 repair with all 6 injectors. Friend worked for local Detroit dealer for probably 15yrs and this is not rare. Once metal is found in the fuel filter the advice was to run it until it dies because the damage is done. You can overhaul a Cat/Cummins for that $$.
If this is what you consider a great motor the junk your used to over there must be a real treat.
If you drive that jewel again don't over rev it because it stretches the cam lobes and they have to be replaced.

Tore my roof liner out on the w9 and found the sign lamp switch wire behind the dash. Connected it to a switch and sure enough my sign/beacon symbol illuminated on the dash. Only extra wire I can find up top are an olivewire with a brown stripe and ground. In a two prong plug. One on each side above the door. I'm assuming these are the wires I require? So why can't I get power to come to them? Anyone done this can help me out please? They disappear in the bundle of wires and go into the panel. I've swapped out breakers an relays they work as they also control the sign/beacon symbol.
