New ball joints, new front end. Steering is sloppy. Truck runs. Drove it from Columbus, Ohio to Dayton. Had to keep the OD button on. Engine lurched and sputtered without. Nothing too scary.
Lets see your Dodge trucks! Post some Pic's!

Here Is my 1980 D150 Adventurer. It's the only one I have. I replaced the outer wheel wells and had to fabricate the inners because they don't make repair panels for them. It has a 318 4 speed overdrive. I also just built the toneau cover for it for winter time. I hate having snow in the bed, I'm cheap and only have 50 bucks in it plus a couple of days work.

Thanks LocuMob, IT needs a little TLC but all in all it is a great truck. I am undecided as to take all the trim off of it because the brightwork is in such great shape. Have you seen that new product from DuPont that is like a wrap but you spray it on? I am thinking about trying it on my truck. I can't afford a nice paint job and the body work that would have to go along with it.

This is a NICE Dodge too! The year that HAS to be an early '80 model year truck.... the '79's had the same grille! And if I remember correctly, wasn't the late in the year '80 model trucks have the same grille with single headlights? -I KNOW somewhere in the '80's Dodge had a '79 looking grille, with single headlights.... I THINK it was a true '80 model year truck. I'm just not sure what year that was, but I think it was '80.... When the "Ram" first came out....

80 had 2 grilles, the 79 quad headlight and the round 2 headlight style. I think they were based on trim level but I could be wrong on that.
The Ram name was introduced in 81.

Scott,
I thought the '79 had a "split" horizontal grille, with quad headlights, and the '80 had a split grille with single headlights?
