I'm a little disappointed they were allowed to gut the interior when they made their record-setting run... they literally threw out everything "including the kitchen sink."

The things 15-year-old me dreamt of doing with something like this...

Thanks that answers my question (when and where did you purchase the kit). Looks like they still sell the kit for '98-and-up E450s, just not for my '06 F450.

Sorry to hear about your health issues. I'm not in the market for another rig but was wondering if you might share some details on the Rayco / Granning rear air suspension. I came across them in researching options for my '06 F450 (after finding that Kelderman will no longer sell their kit but...

I ended up buying #32 after the first guy to look at it backed out. We've already put 10,000 miles on it and I've no doubt with the heated and insulated tanks and diesel heater that it'll be a lot nicer this winter than our old Chinook ever was. A set of Hutchinsons with Goodyear G275s are...

Just dug that up, thanks!

We purchased #32 this past April - would love to compare notes with you some time. I have a set of G275s on Hutchinsons waiting to go on mine once I figure out what to do with the suspension. I'm also curious about comments I've seen regarding the frames cracking on early units. Does yours have...

Ah okay - does that mean they're actually 37x13.50? I can only find the 12.50s in D/124q.

So about 8,000 lbs. on the rear axle? Are the Toyos rated for that? I can only find the 17" in load range D, ~3,500 lbs. ea.

Sadly that's not true.

It may be okay on the rear GAWR but those tires are rated at 3525 lbs each; pretty sure it's over 7,050 on the rear.

This is probably close to 2k lbs overweight on the rear axle and tires. Somebody didn't think things through.

This is from last year. Seller eventually reduced the price to $135k.

11k dry weight, probably close to 13k fully loaded, not including whatever you put in the garage, so probably 8k+ on the rear axle. Those Toyos are rated for 3.5k each.
