Hey all. I am new to this forum. I am even new to owning a Dodge. I am going to be buying this one to use as an everyday driver. It needs some work, but was cheap. Where can I get parts for it? Owner's manual? Shop manual? Thanks,Scott

I would check Ebay first for a service and owners manual. Mechanical parts can be ordered through you local parts store. I always buy my parts online or try to at least. This way i don't confuse the kid behind the counter.

I have been looking all over and trying to find what the tire size of this truck should be. Any idea where to look? I would also like to put the original wheels & tires on it. Can I do that without going to split rims? What should I look for? Thanks,Scott

8-lug or 5-lug?
More than likey they were 15 or 16 inch. I know for sure that one-tonners used 16" wheels.
You can't go wrong with a LT235/75R15. That's a good "all around" size.

Not sure about the lugs. All I know is that it is a 3/4 ton. Would that make a difference?

Pop a hubcap off an see how many lugs are holding the wheel on. Some 3/4 ton trucks have 8 lugs some 5. Most 8-lug wheels are 16" from the factory.
