I have a sweet running, driving 89 Dodge 250 4door 4X4 5-speed Getrag NP 205 Dana 60 F / 70R 3.54 ratios, with 134a AC, the pump is not seized . For everyone that lives in an emission testing state this is perfect because this IS a 1989 diesel vin #. It has the diesels larger frame and braces. It was converted in 1989 by a van conversion place in Elkhart, IN. The frame and cab was lengthened and it looks very professional. I has 94 ish GM front and rear bench seats. I bought it with the trans and t-case in the back of the bed, the throw out bearing seized and the PO removed it and I bought it. I installed a new throw out and the pilot bearing wasn’t too bad, knowing Getrags, I replaced it, anyways. The disc is 40% remaining and flywheel, and pressure plate were in great shape. The Getrag is in great shape, also. It still had good preload. It engages and holds as it should. The rear main seal was dry. I can see no sign of ANY mods, not even a timing bump?
When I bought this truck I had a 1500$ Air Force truck lined up, and lost the deal. I was going to swap the cabs, as this one is RUSTY! But it’s there. I decided to do a 2001 F350 4 door Fummins, instead.
The speedometer works and shows 45,000 miles and was told that it’s probably 145K. When the fella removed the trans he broke the ratio adapter.
The wiring isn’t to good and the grid heaters don’t work, everything is there, I haven’t done any troubleshooting on that, or tail lights, fuel gage, and brake lights. It started right up at 10 degrees and do what they do without preheat…. Smoke. It smoothed right out within a minute, and doesn’t smoke after that.
The axels seem pretty tight and quiet. The front u-joint has the wrong straps on it, and the front axle has plugs in it and I have the Seletros hubs are complete and one has a broken housing. It has a good downpipe and I have a like new muffler and tail pipe for it. I know someone is going to ask if it will make it here or there, I don’t know, it feels good from the couple of illegal miles I drove it. I do have a clear title for it.
I really have no idea on the money? I have a 93 EXT cab CTD 5-speed Getrag and it’s in very nice shape, that I’ll be selling soon. I had the Getrag rebuilt, and this one shifts better than my GOOD one! I have tons of stuff for these first gens and would be happy the do a deal. I have a Getrag 2 wd trans, divorced NP205 and mount, 2) 3.54 rear axles, intercooled AC pump, complete clutch pedal assembly with master and slave, 12.25 Sacks flywheel, throw out arm, bell housing, this kind of stuff. Bench seat, misc. interior goodies…. Too numerous to list, It’s all going to go!!!! I’m thinking 4800.00 on the truck? I know it has a great deal of value and that can be sorted out.

Last year I looked everywhere for a 89-93 ext. cab, 4X4 5speed and could not get close to junker for less than 5 grand, I know holidays are on us, but I would think something this ready to go would go? I don't want to Ebay it! Thanks, Artie

 

Where is the truck at? I'm in Ohio
