Re: All redone kw kinghauler
 
got the lights done and went to put the cab back on and realized because i had to reverse the front cab mounts in order to accomodate the lightbars below i had to raise the bunk floor up to even it off so using 4 brass threaded fifth wheel coupler high nuts ohttp://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0gj9ng3o.jpgut of the kit did the job for me

wow looking sharp, how long is that trailer, something in that length would fit perfect behind my grand hauler build.

That looks really good bigford and its funny the reaction you get from people when they see them in person after seeing pictures, they don't realize how big they can get!

Re: All redone kw kinghauler
 
Oh yea mario you never seen it yet ...lol.. i think sue will like it better than the cattle trailer...lol

mavrick0 06-01-2015 08:00 PM

Re: All redone kw kinghauler
 
The way it's going there will be several 53's at the show Mario.

Supermario 06-01-2015 08:28 PM

Re: All redone kw kinghauler
 
Has anyone tried turning a 53 on our layout yet?

Sorry Dwayne , don't mean to high jack. Nuff said.

flatdeck 06-01-2015 08:54 PM

Re: All redone kw kinghauler
 
It will be very tight with the long stance of the 53 behind a long wheel base tractor... I think even my 48 with have a hard time making the corners......
