Looks great. Very nice truck Sir. All the little pieces add up for sure.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thats a nice touch with the air cleaners and stack rack.Good job.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Everytime I come back here the truck keeps getting better and better! Keep at it.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

I did before but I still need to find a way to turn the mfu in and of and be able to adjust the volume.. That's the next goal.

Thank you! Yes they do add up in many ways and there's still more to come.. :)

Thanks!

Thank you! That's my goal still quite a ways from done but its getting there.

the rack looks great on the truck :D

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Ok cab is pretty much closed for good now well at least i dont need to access it anymore.. I relocated the battery again to the frame rails and moved the switches for the MFU. My speaker idea didnt pan out as i kept blowing speakers so that is a little dissapointing, so i resoldered the original speaker back in. I also started the light box to hide the rack mount.

used the face for a template on the floor

I can access all controls of the mfu and its completely hidden.

Heres what i have come up with so far as i was explaining before

I still need to try to hinge it and add lights to it but it will deff hide the mount the way i thought it would

Thanks for looking!!

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

looks good, a few red lights back there would set it off

Re: My Stretched globeliner

The light bar prob wont be painted for indy as the truck is not staying this color so the less new stuff i paint the less that needs to be stripped before the new colors go on. the light bar is not fully mounted yet and just taped on for now i need to get 4 new red LEDs thast match so i can rewire it :eek:
Thanks for looking

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Aaron, i like the idea of hiding the control panel. Functional, yet clean looking. And I like the box w/ the led's. Great job.:D:D:D

Big John

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thanks Big john! i like it cause i can just reach under the drivers side of the cab and control everything! I have the lights in the box ran off the mfu just soldered 2 more red leds to the brake lights in a series i still may throw in a resistor if needed in the future as the rear bumper is going to have 5 more lights in it...

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

well all i can say is "Holy smokes!" looks great. if you were to put a drome box on and paint it UVL colors, i would swaer it was my uncle jims old rig.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

yup thats what i meant about the lights and they really do hide the mount really well

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thanks guys!! Got more parts headed my way soon!! :D:D At this rate she may have a new temp color by indy!! :eek:

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Great job Aaron! Its been awhile since I looked at your thread. The breather assembly is pretty sweet. Good Idea for the hidden MFU controller too!

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thanks Brian!! I cant wait to get all the other extras, lights and new paint on it!! its getting there slowly but surely

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Got my 6 tooth pinion gear from RC4WD made a spacer and man it helped slow my truck down quite a bit!!! Thanks for the link Paul!!

Re: My Stretched globeliner

I love it!!! Now i just gotta light it up. Now im wondering if i could just cut the old fog lights off the leads and series in the 8 2v LEDs i need? i added 2 to the brake lights with no ill effect.. maybe through in a 56ohm resister or 2? My lowboy is 5 sets of 4 led/1 56ohm resistors in a series... Still need to order the new pipes, visor, and wait for one more custom part and it should be pretty much done minus new paint scheme. Anyways thanks for looking

THANKS AGAIN RUSS AND LYNN!!

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Great Job on that mfu placement..clean look....Lynn And Russ are true craftsman...The breathers are awesome

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Aaron, Love what your doing with the Globe. I love the Orange but cant wait to see what you come up with.

My Stretched globeliner ( new pic update)
 

Thanks Alfy!!

Thanks buddy!! I have a new cab, rails on order, and made new fenders for the new paint. just cant mess up that nice paint it has now!


And the new bumper has lights!! May change how its ran i ran 2 series of 4, 2v 20ma leds each series with a 56ohm resistor on the negative side and hooked it up to the old fog light wires... may split it to only 4 lights on a plug using the extra light plug.. not sure yet any thoughts from the other with more lights then this?? How did you do it properly?
wasnt happy with the last set of pics i posted so here are some new ones outside and then with the lights working :)

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Truck looks nice!! Glad you decided to keep this body. I really like the color.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Truck looks good. I really like that front bumper

Re: My Stretched globeliner

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Very nice Globeliner you have there :)

Re: My Stretched globeliner

Thanks! Let me know I'll be glad to help. Prob use 3mm leds for that.

Thanks!

Thanks for looking!

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Wow, I was never a real big fan of the globe liners until I started watching this build. I really like the new front bumper with the extra lights on it. This whole truck has come together very well. I think my next project will be a globe now.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Changed how i had the front bumper wired up (thanks TC for the help) and the lights are brighter so im happy. Also got more lights done on the lowboy here are some pics as usual :)

Still far from done but much better. Tailer is only 50% done total with the rebuild.

Thanks for looking!!!

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Lookin good as said before. I'm really liking all the lights and the trailer looks right at home behind that truck.

Tyler

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thanks Tyler!

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

did you make that lowboy or were did it come from?

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

the trailer is scratch built originally by another member. i have been re doing it to the way i want it to be and look. on the list is more lights, lowboy tires, powered neck, but for now its rolling and almost ready for indy..

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

I must say the 'ol globe w/ the lowboy look's very, very impressive. And the brighter led's look way better. Now hurry up and "git-r-done".;):p:D:cool: And I almost forgot, the bumper look's awsome.:D:D:D

Big John

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thanks big John i'm trying to get-r-done! Worked 66 hours last week and spent the day out on the boat with the kids today :) hey I needed a break ;)

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

The globe and lowboy are looking good. Good job on the LEDs. That bumper gives the truck a tough look. Good job, keep the pics coming.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Looks good man, great setup. The lights set it off, need to get my lowboy together and working :o:o

J.D.

Re: My Stretched globeliner
 

Thanks Buddy! i agree the bumper gives it one heck of an attitude look. But just wait till its done, with the new visor and stuff it'll look bad a$$

Thanks J.D hurry up and get it together i wanna see it :) yes the lights make a huge difference, i just hope i have the time to finish the lights before Indy if not it at least has most of them.
