I have a elandan2 with a m500 chassis under it. Was wondering if anyone know if this chassis was used in a truck or box van where there might have been a clutch used?  :)

Sorry, the Dodge M300 through M600 chassis line was motorhome unique.  Many parts cross over.  You would have to use a hydraulic clutch setup, fabricate a custom clutch pedal, have a drive shaft cut to length.   You need to look at say a D400/450 (2WD) or W400/450 (4WD) truck of the era to see what they had availble.  You have a big block which the bell housing and stuff is different from a small block.  Sorry bottom line is custom build for you.

Thank you I was pretty sure of that! Just wanted to make sure! Have been researching a custom hydraulic clutch set up! Putting a isuzu 6bd1t in it fab isn't a problem. Thanks for the info!`
