i'm just curious how many CC chev and gmc ZF trucks there are around. in my searches i have found one, and of course it was a work truck for a const. company. any idea?

check out the brotherhood of handshakers thread, has a list of all the trucks with a manual tranny here on the forum (still growing and not limited to zf6 trucks either but its a good search start.)

I have one...

I have one...

Wish I had one, I might buy another if I find one.

I missed one a few weeks ago :mad:. It was an 06 with 6,000 miles on it :eek:. Sold for $25K :mad:,but since I settled for another Ex-Cab.

The dually crews seem to be the real hens teeth...

the one i found up north wouldn't be too bad i suppose... it's just with the extra money they want for it, i wouldn't be able to spring for a SBC until may or so. other than that it's unmolested, so i'd have to come up with more $$ for mods. or i could get kziggy's with everything done to it that i'd do, except the front bumper. buying a modded truck... your thoughts?

I have a CCLB w/ ZF and 2WD. It is a rare bird!

so in other words.......you have the longest driveshaft known to man!!:D

you guys think there could be much wrong with that '03 with 80k miles on it? like i said it was a work truck, but outside of the clutch there isn't much to take the abuse is there?

That the one in Souix Falls or a different 03? There's a 2wd 06 6spd crew dually in Rapid City.

Are you EFFING serious? I would have driven a lon ways for that deal

mine is a cc as well i had to drive about 3 hours to get it but the deal was to good to pass up

i will kick it around some more. don't know how well the limo-esque wheelbase will do when i try to dunk my duck boat in a small landing made of cattails though...

I have been looking for a zf6 cc/lb dually and have not found 1 for sale. I dont think there are any on the east coast!!!! I would travel along ways if anyone finds one that they arent interested in...

I was watching it on Ebay and I called the guy cause it said he's end the sale locally. He was a few hours away and I called to buy it and he said he had a buyer waiting on funds. The next morning he called and said it was sold :mad:. Was loaded too,even had Onstar and steering wheel controls :eek:,salvage title but that's what I ended up with anyway.


BADD2500: I looked for the last 9mo and finally bought a ex-cab dually. They are terribly hard to find. If you are serious about driving to get one I can probably locate one for you. There are/were a couple on Autotrader.

There are five cc/lb duallies on autotrader.com!! One in Kentucky, 2 in Ohio, 1 in Washington, and a loaded one in Colorado. It is pretty slick!:driver:

I am very serious... I cant buy it out right, without selling my truck though, or trading it in. I found one on autotrader in KY, but it seemed High at $36,000 and didnt specify what Options it has, I'll have to call it.

I bought this truck 07 silverado 2500HD 6.0 5spd because It was all I could find new. It's great, but When I go to pull my 32ft trailer, it might be a problem. So I fear that I need a dually/duramax and I refuse to buy an auto. Im also a little picky and dont want a truck thats been abused, thats why I bought a new 07. If I cant get a nice zf6, I might have to bite the bullet and get a dodge, but I really dont want to.

I missed the one in CO. What color?

Hey 01DuramaxSixSpeed, the one in Colorado is gold. It looks like the silver birch metallic from what I can tell. It is a GMC with 135,000 miles. It's a private seller that wants $21,000 for it. It is a sharp looking truck. He says it is loaded up. Leather/heated seats, satelite radio, power everything!!:D

It's an Ally :mad:. I e-mailed them just before buying mine.

It pulled it up under six speed manual. That sucks:mad: sorry about that.

I'm in the same boat. I have an 03 EC/SB with the zf-6 and love it. The only problem is when I bought it, it was the only 6-er I could find. Now that I'm married, my wife and I would like to have the extra room of the crew cab and the luxury of the fourth door that doesn't open the opposite way. Problem is, I want another 6-er and she doesn't coupled with the fact that I can't find a CC/SB zf-6 anywhere. I don't know if I can trust having an auto. It's nice knowing I can put a lil under 2 grand in a clutch and hold all the power I want to versus dumping anywhere from 4 to 7 grand in a slushbox to hold the same.

Something for those of you looking to buy an 2003 - 2006 ZF6 (or any 2003 - 2007 manual GM full size truck), keep in mind that you could not get a loaded truck in a manual. The best you could do was LS trim (before 2006) or LT1 trim (2006 - 2007). You could not get leather, or sunroof, or CD changer, or some other things (have to look them up) with a manual trans. So if you see ones on ebay or autotrader with high grade trim or options, you are most likely looking at an ally.

The 06 I refered to earlier had power windows,locks,seats,Onstar,steering wheel controls,power heated camper mirrors,ect. It was a 6spd. Had plenty of pic's to show. I also looked at an 05 Crew Dually that was loaded the same exact way and I believe it had a heated rear window :D.
My 01 even has 6 way power buckets.
There was a blue 04 ZF6 Crew Cab on Autotrader with black leather and all options.
They are out there,the thing was most dealers couldn't/wouldn't special order them :mad: and just told us we couldn't get a loaded 6spd cause it was easier to sell an Ally :mad:. I've seen enough to know that there are at least a handfull of 6spds with everything.

When I ordered a 2006 8.1 with the ZF6, I could not order Leather or CD changer, I could (and did) order PL/PW/PM, etc. But no console (had to get bench seats) or anything like that.

I know 2005 was the same, 2004 and before may be different. I know in 2001 - 2002 you could get leather, console and anything you wanted.

When I ordered my truck 11/05, leather was an option, but not heated. At $1000, I said no thanks...

I guess I've never seen a ZF6 without CD?? Even all the work trucks my local GMC dealer had in 06 has CD.

still looking, getting rid of my acura this week, would be nice to find something to put that money down on!

If you have too much trouble getting a Duramax with a manual in it then perhaps the alternative would be to go ahead and get a truck with an allison and switch it out the transmission to a zf-6. I happen to have one with SBC, clutch, stick, actuator, etc. What do you think?

lol i don't know a thing about doing a manual swap on anything newer than my 1970 AMC javelin. and even that was a pain. i suppose if i could find someone to help me who wasn't gonna charge an arm and a leg, maybe

No CD changer, not no CD. I have a CD (thank god)

:confused: :confused: :confused: Huh? I'm talking about the device that you insert a CD into the dash and it plays music :lol:. Never seen a D-Max/6spd with out one. all the way up to 06.


No CD changer, not no CD. I have a CD (thank god)

higher trims have the in-dash 6 cd changer. i read ya zphantom

I take back my previous statement. I did see an 05 6spd without a CD that was on Ebay.
