Need a truck or motor
« on: November 29, 2015, 06:31:46 PM »
My dad is in a super tight spot financially and emotionally. It's a long personal story. The motor seized up in his dually 02' lb7 duramax. I need to get him in to a different truck or source an engine for his. The only real requirement is that it's 3/4 ton or bigger and its dependable sand able to pull. Let me know if anyone has seen anything recently or possibly has something to part with.

HC. You probably already did this but would this be close to what you are looking for?  http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-6-DURAMAX-DIESEL-ENGINE-2001-TO-2006-LB7-LLY-LBZ-/251101152499

If it seized are you only looking for the block, heads, rotating assembly, etc? Do you have mechanic to do the swap and transfer good parts to new block?

Well Nate found a motor on c-list. I contacted the guy and another individual from DF. The DF guy is actually my dads neighbor, go figure! He was supposed to contact his mechanic and get back to me, but I haven't heard anything going on almost a week now so that prolly won't be a thing.
