According to Quickserve, our motors weigh 952lbs dry, w/o accessories. Now factor in a/c, alternator, starter, flywheel, power steering pump, oil, and coolant. I believe final weight is around 1120lbs.

I've searched the internet and found lots of great info. Except I still cant narrow down which are the best to get? The springs I put in last year were rated at 1950lbs and the Cummins ate them up with a 2 inch re-arch on new springs. The spring sites give me more choices of, 2150, 2200, and 2775lbs rating for a 73-87 3/4 ton Chevy. But then the 73-87 Blazer has the 2350lbs rating. And the 1/2 ton Chevys give you the same ratings as the 3/4ton. I'm looking for the flex, smoother ride, durability against the weight of the Cummins. Plus the 200lbs bumper on the front. So if anyone has experience with these please let me know.

DON,

I assume your last name is Lane? Are you possibly related to a Jim or Dave Lane of NE In origin?
No Sir, all of the Lane relatives that I know of are from southern Illinois and Southern Indiana. But its possible. Thanks for the welcomes!

Introducing myself here, I've already spoke with Don through PM. My name is Travis, I've been silently stalking this build for over a year now. I am certified Cummins mechanic at a Kenworth dealer in Lafayette, IN. I would love to help in anyway I can, this rig is amazing, the detail and quality that goes into every aspect of it is spectacular. I own a 93 D250 that I converted to a W250. I believe in keeping these old beauties alive, so anyway I can help, I'm here. I have access to Cummins Quickserve, I also have friends at Cummins in Columbus who were part of the original B-series in a 3/4 ton pick up project.
Travis
