    Well truck ran fine no issues then at a stop light it got super loud. Step on the accelerator and super super loud. Like I threw a rod. It was so loud I decided on not limping it the rest of the way home. I noticed the oil pressure dropped some as well. I did notice a slight knocking sound...

    Been a long time researcher but this is my first time posting here. It looks like I'm going to need a rebuild. Not sure what is wrong but I'm thinking crankshaft. I'm at a crossroads though. I can pay my guy around $3000 for a rebuild give or take. Or I was thinking I could get a donor truck...
