Have any of you guys ever done a day cab conversion on a 2000 vintage KW aero cab? How involved is the project?
What is the market like for a full areodyne bunk? What is the bunk worth (full leather VIT interior, clean)?
Especially that one as you have to but the cab structure.
I would.
This is similar to the kit the shop here used. Fiberglass Kenworth Aero Cab Extended Day Cab Conversion Kit - Raney's Truck Parts
Customer bought it and brought it to them to swap. The next one they did they got the kit from Kenworth and it was 100% better. Paint and bolt on, cost wasn’t any different in the end because of all the labor and extra parts the cheap one required but the quality was much better.
Thanks guys. Just throwing ideas around with the future of the W900L my dad has just sitting in the shop.
Looking to potentially sell or put to work. Not real sure. I don’t care for the big bunk if we were to put it to work.

Your not using proper trucker math though
It's a 9900 thing. I have an idiot from Chicago that wanted to go trucking. Has spent upwards of 50k on a 7k Canadian truck. He decided the fuel lines were sucking air so he rtv'd the fittings together. The power lead to the ECM rotted off of it and he said the vibration we caused was behind it. The vibration was the arm on the load leveling valve broken in half.Got 2 9900i’s here now. One with M11 he wants overhauled that’s going to cost as much as the truck is worth. Another is on its 3rd ISX, first one exploded, this one has a worn top bore and the liner is moving so he brings another junkyard block, absolutely nothing special about this truck. Could get 100 exactly like it off truckpaper but he keeps dumping money in in this one. Most truckers are definitely not accountants.
