Just fantastic Brian, a show stopper for sure. I do see one thing missing under the front of the bed there is a step mounted to the bottom of the bed.

Brian, excellent build, very true to the 1:1. I've followed it from the time I came to the board and have waited inpatiently to see it at this point (Love tri-axle dumps). Is the 1:1 still around so you can get a photo of the 2 together? Can't wait to see what you do next, this one will be hard to beat.
