Luv your truck. My favorite Classic out there. I just wanted you to know that I appreciate what you share about the truck or personal. I am using your truck as my blueprint. Be safe bud.
I see the love and hard work you put into her driva, looking dam good too, good stuff
Put some big rubber on it, 24.5 tall, better ride, higher top end. Freightliner classic is one of the best riding trucks ever, especially 275" or longer, condos are best, you can do jumping jacks in the sleeper. Any driver that bad mouths them most likely never drove one, very comfy truck. Those early series 60s can't be beat either, very reliable.
....Thats a good lookin' Classic XL ya got Hand... Hope you have a wonderful Happy New Year.. Peace Love and 18 Wheelz.... Roll-On
That's a beautiful truck you did a great job on it
Absolutely luv this truck and the work u have done.I want to do my truck exactly like this thanks for sharing and look forward to seeing more projects you do be safe driver..

@@realhustle5939 it all depends man... i got this truck because my dad was friends with the owner and he knew it only had 50k on rebuilt engine. The guy lost his license and it was parked in the desert for 3 years. I paid 17k.. but i spend another 7k to rebuilt all the rear suspension, front end suspension.. new rubber all around.. so i guess if its 100% road ready 20-25k .. it all depends on your budget bro

305 wb! thats a loooong girl! I know that feeling of missing being in the seat. Been too long for me but figured I'd get my heavy duty ticket & buy my own rig after. Love the series 60 sound & fuel economy! is yours the 12.7 or 14.0? also 3.55's are tall atleast for most rigs I've run. average ones had 4.10's to 4.33's but pulling heavy loads through the mountains up north

The frame rails are heat-treated alloy steel. It's little wonder you had trouble drilling through them. Need (at least) a magnetic drill press to do this.

Wheelbase on a tandem axle tractor is measured from the center of the steer to center of the distance between the drives. If it's a factory whlbse, it's most likely 275". I believe the 86" sleeper came with a 283" whlbse.
