Rolled my truck

[njdriver02]

last night i rolled my truck, planning to pickup a donor truck and swap the cabs, i think the damage is only to the roof and busted tire, don't know for sure because i had to go to the hospital for stitches.

i can just swap the cabs right?

yes, helps if it is the same year too. and you will wanna take it to a frame shop to make sure your frame isn't tweaked. go over the whole truck with a fine tooth comb. put it on a lift and make sure that all the bolts, mounts, and brackets are not f^&*ed up. and your wheels/hubs are prolly messed up, but maybe you got off lucky depends what speed you were goin and how many times you rolled for what damage to expect. Glad you are ok though and hope everything works out.

yeah i am going to pick up a donor truck, fix the cosmetic and then go through everything else, does the entire interior need to be gutted? i am assuming so.

I have a 94 cab if you want to pull it off my parts truck... Have no idea if you are even in my state though, but itd be cheap!

Damn dude, that sucks! You okay?

 

[njdriver02]

5 stitches in my elbow that is about it,
what color is the cab, i need a white on. Harry you pull it in hazleton has them for $75 but you have to haul them out, two guys it will be tough.

Cant really beat $75 bucks! Thats cheap compared to places around here.

How the hell did you roll it? I dont know if i would put the time and money into a 2wd 4 cyl. JMHO

Yeah, TBQH, you can probably find another one for cheap... well, hell, you could probably buy a whole 'nother one and use it for a parts truck then.
