2001 dodge 3500

Still slowly getting to put some time in on the truck, named him Moose. Pulled the radiator and it was pretty bad got it all cleaned and flushed with fresh coolant a tstat. Got my order in for the back brakes $600 at rock auto vs $900 at Napa just have to wait a couple weeks for shipping. 

crankcase vent mod also on the list

I did however pick up a camper, was gonna wait until I got the truck all squared away but couldn’t pass up on a deal the wife found. It’s a 1991 and it’s massive  

 

Kind of makes the truck look small

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.
