Well, I finally finished. The frame rails took me a few times but worth it at the end. This set of rails and the wheels came from steve. Bumpers air cleaners and axle from russ. Awesome visor from rod. Grill from travis headlights emblems antennas from ric. Thanks keith for the stickers which I ripped and the crossmembers.I wasn't being lazy by not painting the frame. I think it looks kind of cool polished.

Looking good. Is the drop axel powered? Or manual operation?

Its manuel for now. I just have to pick up a servo. A few people talked about the hitec 85. I might give that a shot. I only have a 4 channel remote but I should be able to power 1 more servo???

Perfect length, it has great proportions. You planning to get the duals in aluminum too?

I'm not a truck builder nor am I able to get perfection but Im having a good time doing it. Lets call it a king hauler with KW emblems.

cabs..my statement was not meant to insult you or your build .its all about having fun ,i noticed that your breathers do not have intake hoses on it like the kw ,it was meant as a joke because of that..sorry if i offended you in any way:).btw nobody is perfect,just human ;)if you are having a good time ,thats all that matters
