Make darn sure the truck itself is dependable and in excellent mechanical condition before you start on any conversion. I can guarantee you will spend far more time and money on the conversion than on the chassis, so if you start with a old worn out chassis, you will end up with an old worn out toterhome that isn't worth anything, no matter how nice of a box you build on it. If you are not 100% certain of your chassis, upgrade now. Once you start welding stuff together it is way too late. For myself, I am beginning to wish I had gone straight to a class 8 truck instead of a medium duty, and I just don't want to do all the work over again now.
