Finally made a proper bushing for the steering.....also moved the servo up with spacers which moved the steering assy. about a 1/4" closer to the bottom of the truck.....

How are you doing? Once again a very nice job. It won't belong now will it before you are going to be carry a load? Like they say all good things take time. Ed

Thanks again....all the small little things that need to be done all take time, longer than a person thinks..lol..but for the most part I think all the little stuff is done at this point, so I hope to get started at all the welding etc in the next few days....

I also made some simple covers for the front wheels...shortened up some 1" copper pipe caps and soldered them to the cover plate....should look OK...
