Hey,
Im in the process of workin a deal that is trading my bagged and body dropped yota for a 95 crew cab.
I have a few questions. The dually, its a small block. How do these guys tow, What kind of MPG? How much can they tow?
Also How heavy is one of these pigs. The truck has 16" alco's and bags up front. Not sure what the best way to to bag the back will be yet. Thanks and any help would be great.

Yes dragnasty it is in Fla. and we know each other. Im Derrick from ohio who shoots vid for brad w/concrete. Ghetto hoppin in greenville in the back of your truck is somthing I will never forget. I want to make this beast tow. What would be a good rear susp. set up for it. See you at some shows this year.

Welcome. Bag behind axle if you want load hauling capabilities, but you will loose some lift.

You will just have to get this dually and then buy another minitruck to tow around. Once I fix up my dually I will throw the busa in the bed and tow my dime to shows.
