Thanks Aaron.


Thanks Wayne.

I would say a little tighter than my other steer axle dumps, I'll check this weekend.


Joe, it's a 18" box

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump
 

This is a cool looking truck. The hood looks awesome. With it having an articulated center joint, is that the sole means of steering the truck now, or are you going to combine the articulated joint with a steerable front axle too, and tighten up the turning radius even more? Those rims and tires are killer looking, by the way!

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump
 

Thanks for the comment, right now it's just the articulating for steering, I do have a TLT steer axle I can throw in there but the steering radius is pretty close to a stock king hauler. I love the rims as well, I have the same ones on my 1/14 8x8 Hemtt I built a few months ago.

Got the cab painted last night and threw it on. Lights and a little trim left.

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump
 

Thats a cool truck nice work. what is the turning radius?

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump
 

You waste no time! That turned out nice. Very unique. The look with those tires and wheels is awesome.

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump
 

Thanks 22, its just about the same as a standard steering dump. The frame is a little longer with the 18" box on it so its not as tight as a shorter ten wheeler.

Thanks Alfy.

LOL, yeah I think I have adhd or abcd or something, but for some reason I always need to power through and get things finished. I have the same tires and rims on my 1/14 Hemtt, I love the look.

Re: Articulating KW T800 Dump
 

Added a center working tongue lift, and added lights to it.

Still need to replace the axles and tires, then add the ramps.
