It was nice seeing your truck in person Keith, there is so much detail to it. Very nice work. I didn't realize that the stack mount was made out of brass, nice. The metal work for the rear view mirrors is a nice touch too.

The bed looks great Reg and you did a fantastic job with the screw drive setup. Makes me want to build another dump truck for myself.

Thanks so much Scott, it was a lot of fun at Brian's. Looking forward to moving dirt with it.

Looks great man! really looks like a mean old dog.

Think it would look great with some old school spokes on her. Most of those DM Mack's were heavy spec.

McMaster Carr, there left and right hand springs. I can dig out the part number if you need it.
