i think the 5.9 isb will be plenty of power except ill be using either a 5 speed or maybe a 10 speed lol over kill! i think on yours i would slide the box back and find another bed and cut the front section off and make a tunnel tool box out of it instead of sliding the rear axle forward..

"...Ford 6.9 Diesel (known to be bulletproof and also the most HP and Torque of any diesel in that era)..." offshoreexcursion

I overloaded one with 2400lbs more than I should have and blew both head gaskets. It WAS bulletproof until then.
