Hi all
Took a revisit on the rams. Tried a piece of 1/2" SST tubing and the 3/8 " slides perfect in it.Able to hide the auger bit.I 'm thinking it looks a little better.
Had to cut out a portion of the sides,the 1/2" sst was rubbing and sticking .There is a lip that sticks out on the side of the model.Need to mask it again and paint the rest of the side,did not blend as well as I thought.
Make a floorboard for the cab(had to cut out ,room for battery) hide the wires and that should pretty well do it.
