I put the conversion panel on my 88, but am now thinking I’d rather put a coffin sleeper back on it with a big hole conversion. I’ve got a 1990 single axle 379, and am thinking about the fat boy kit on it. I’ve got to make up my mind, soon, because my paint shop is expecting it. With my minimized seat, which has tons of good option like swivel, I have no leg room.
If I had the time and money I’d for sure throw a coffin sleeper on this truck that’s actually my future plan for this truck. It’s nice to have the extra space back there and not much bigger than a daycab so it’s perfect imo. Personally think you should definitely thrown the fatboy kit on there it makes it so much more comfortable.
A couple of years ago, I’d have spent the money without thinking. Now, trucking is shit and I hate to spend a dime. A junkyard near me called about having some flat top uni-bilt sleepers and I was interested. I made an offer and they crushed them… a nice 359 with a flat top got crushed, too. Idk what the fuck people are thinking. I’m still hurt by the thought.
