What’s up new guy here, just bought my truck a couple months ago and stumbled onto the site, lots of cool info. Look forward to sharing my truck and learning from everyone. 
 

Like the title says it’s an 01 dodge 3500 4x4 5 speed, it has 301k miles and was a work truck for all but a couple years of its life. Start up construction company bought it in 2005 from an old man that bought it new, they put a flatbed on it and towed equipment trailers. I bought it for what I consider a good deal considering current economic times and plan on making into the weekend truck for the family, tow my boat and looking to buy a truck camper. 
 

The guy I bought it from took pretty good care of it considering, it’s very dirty all around and a little rusty on the underside. Has a new clutch and everything works other than a/c. Crazy thing is he claims he’s never had to do a lift pump injection pump or injectors, always put 2 stroke oil in with each tank of fuel but said the shop mechanic would just fix stuff time to time and might not have told him. All I done so far is deep clean interior, change oil flush coolant and add a bhaf. 
 

Long winded for an intro but excited for it all, thanks 

Nice looking camper. You should enjoy it.

 Nice camper. What does it weigh? Just curious, looks like it's making the truck squat a touch. Not a bad thing, just made me curious on the weight of the camper.

 I think my radiator is worse than yours, it's on my list as well. Just been busy with other stuff lately 

Sticker says 3100# loaded, the trucks been worked most of its life but she handled everything better than expected. She might sag a tiny but not much I plan on adding bags. I wasn’t anticipating a camper this size but was a really good deal, just need to figure out how to configure my hitch for towing my boat

That is one straight looking camper.  I like it a lot, your lucky, by now the cabover usually starts to show some degree of sag as wood members start to loose their strength and integrity from moisture. It's a nice one!

 Shouldn't be to difficult to set up the hitch to tow the boat depending on weight and type of hitch you have.

Thanks Jag, were totally new to the camper thing so going through this thing has been fun, seems to be built well. The only towing issue I’m having is with the flatbed the truck has, the way it sits the hitch is 60” behind the camper bumper. I’ll post some pics but any advice is appreciated. Kind of thinking I might need to cut the headache rack off, that’ll gain me almost a foot

 Ahh, I see what you mean after looking at the pics again. 

That's a nice looking camper. I'm sure you'll enjoy it

 

Later
