Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

This is a truck that we acquired at the Jackson Tn show. I thought that my 3 yr old would like it the way it was where he could pull our trailers.Well he informed me he wanted a dump truck which is what he wanted to begin with. So chop cut rebuild:jaw:. We ordered one of Reg's dump beds,And pics here on the forum dont do it justice:D. Here is where we are at so far.

Got the bed mounted and wired to an Esc.I have a motor controller to put on and limit switches so we dont have to worry about them bottoming out and binding the screw drive up .

Looks great Chris. I'm sure he already loves it. I'd guarantee he'll get more loads than any other truck or driver at our shows.

Ill have 2 little truckers if I take the youngest,this is his truck. Hope to take liams and stretch it by indy and he wants a different color.

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Have you ever seen those chrome cabs painted with a transparent color? They look super sharp! A burgundy wine or lemon yellow with that black box :drool:

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Oh man. Your investments are tripling in the hobby then. Shewww.

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

I was thinking of that myself,but dont know what color he will want:)

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

I know gonna have to put a stopping point on the investment sometime:(

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

looking sharp! :cool: That takes kahunas to cut a metallic body :) I say paint the back panel black and call it a day! ... if the boy is okay w/ that!

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Thanks Mario,the way I am it doesnt matter what it is if I get it in my mind i'll chop cut whack and rebuild ;)

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Thanks Rod,I took the back pnel from the sleeper to make the back of the cab and it has the holes for the light kit. I am planning on cutting it for a window then paint it .:)

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Very nice job so far the boy should have a lot of fun with it. Ed

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Thanks Ed it didn't take long to figure out ya got to have some kind of dump truck/trailer to move material to have most fun or bang for the buck:D

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Hey what you doing with that Deere 544j wheel loader in the back.

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

That's one shiny truck with the chrome body and mirror black box! I think it looks great with the Knight cab and tanks. I'm happy to see that it fits well with that cab too!

Keep the updates coming!

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Started converting it ,got driveline in it and thats as far as it got :(

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

wow I love the steps on the side how they go all the way from the front axel to the back looks sick! im new to the working on getting my first truck andi want to do king hauler dump and I think I'm gonna use that step. ;)

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
 

Thanks,but thats the part that I dont like :eek: gonna take them off and put a tank with steps rite under the cab so I have room for a drop axle in place of the factory steps and tanks;)

Re: Knuckleheads Knight dump
