Glider Kit Or Is It

I could be dead wrong. But I would guess it all depends where you run. I wouldn't brave it in some states Cali being one.

 

Call Freightliner with the VIN and they can tell you if it’s a glider. If the motor was rebuilt at a dealership they will also be able to tell you that.

 

The vin # should have like 2 or 3 zeros in the middle of it I believe

anyways call the dealership with the chassis vin and they can look it up

yes it’s technically illegal everywhere to just do that engine swap if this truck wasn’t a glider from the factory

 

What's the benefit of a glider, why is that motor swap illegal?

 

What's the benefit of a glider - it is pre emission.
why is that motor swap illegal? - it is pre emission.

 

Is it a Coronado model? If so a 2015 factory glider will have an 02-09 front end and an actual toolbox under the passenger side door.

 

VIN will tell you

 

Gimme the vin, I can tell you.

 

No EPA emissions problems, easier to get fixed if needed. Paper logs if it is a pre 2000 model year engine.
