I own a 2006 half ton z71 with a 4.8 and my wife drives a 05 dodge diesel, I had to sell my diesel when i found out she was pregnant in sep. and now i want to drop a duramax in my half ton. What all do i need to buy new and how many things can i use from a donor truck in a local junkyard? My shop has all tools needed just dont have a lift, thank you for any help!

If you had to sell your truck in Sept because of money what has changed since then? This swap is going to take months most likely so you'll need to buy another daily driver I guess. Good luck.
