    2003 Sterling/Freightliner SC8000 Cargo- Cummins, allison & custom marmon-herrington 4x4: perfect blank canvas for heavy overlander

    Decided to keep the truck during my overseas trip. It's been too useful recently and should store in the pole and just fine. I may consider flying back to make the sale to the right buyer with good intentions, but look forward to building an overlander in a few years! Thanks to everyone for the...

    2003 Sterling/Freightliner SC8000 Cargo- Cummins, allison & custom marmon-herrington 4x4: perfect blank canvas for heavy overlander

    Had a very helpful and gracious Allison tech reach out and let me know that this truck has a 3000 series Allison transmission, not 2000 as I had it orignally listed. He said I might be able to enable 6th gear simply using the mode button on the transmission shifter. I did look at the driver's...

The engine shows it's stuff too in those low gears. At idle it "crawls" nicely up hills. I didn't even use a...

    2003 Sterling/Freightliner SC8000 Cargo- Cummins, allison & custom marmon-herrington 4x4: perfect blank canvas for heavy overlander

    Does not have the rear diff lock. Fuel pressure gauge has the sensor plumbed in between the lift pump and injector pump and is installed in the dash, but to be extra clear, it still needs power jumped off of wiring in the dash. That should be simple for the new owner as the dash is quite...

    Thanks for all of the questions and thanks to caboverlover for the support. Was a great day with the truck. This truck does have the front locking diff, air locker with switch and indicator light on the dash. Really neat to hear it engage. During the test with caboverlover, we slipped a bit in...
