Re: Custom Kenworth
Well the driver changed jobs from hauling dirt to other stuff so the wet kit came off and i made some new tank straps from some of Brians stainless straps (which by the way Brian please make more i need some.... HINT HINT) and got the tanks mounted to where they should sit under the sleeper. I repolished the rear deck plates but am just going to cut new ones as the main one still has the hole from the old 5th wheel release. I made a new release so i dont need the hole anymore... Started to look further into the mounts for the fenders and i think i have it figure out pretty good so hopefully tomorrow i can make those mounts. I did manage to do a quick mock up tonight with the tanks mounted.. now i still need to attatch the visor, remake the deck plates, mount russ's "sliding 5th wheel mounts" and mount the fenders. Then i can final wire the cab seal her up and she's done. Hopefully only a couple more days till completion (all depends how late i get stuck at work) Heres a few mock up pics
Thanks for looking... Maybe a nice lowboy would look good behind her, or a flatbed even?...... inputs??

Re: Custom Kenworth
Looking good Aaron, I'm thinking a nice spread axle flat bed would fit the bill.

Re: Custom Kenworth
I think that would look excellent with a spread axle flatbed Aaron!!!

Re: Custom Kenworth
This truck is great! I think a soft side with flex and spread axle with boxes would look pretty killer!

Re: Custom Kenworth

Well got some more done on the truck its just about done minus a few adjustments, and mounting the new stacks after i make relocation brakets..... So heres what its looking like
Lets start with all those wires, made a mount for the MFU Came up with a way to mount the switches for the bumper and the MFU Heres the control board for the bumper all nice and mounted in the roof of the sleeper OK OK heres how she's looking I think a set of these should do the trick, just gotta make new mounts YEP has a full interior!! Have a few more little things to do and its finally Done!!! What do you think?

Re: Custom Kenworth
You definitely did a great job on this build Aaron. I love the fact you were able to keep a detailed cab. Must be all that experience and knowledge of cab overs to be able to get it all into the sleeper
Love the pics, great work. Mario |

Re: Custom Kenworth
Thats one fancy truck! I also agree with paul nice touch on stock air cleaners. That shutter grill looks great, and great looking detail on interior.
