new builder king hauler.

[weemanch]

Okay just picked up my king hauler a little while ago, now just starting to unbox it. Wow, is all i can say its longer and bigger then i expected it to be. Ill post some pictures later tonight it wont see paint for a couple months(its too cold out in ohio to paint)

So didnt make it very far just got the frame started,but had to stop since working on basement floor. Which in turn has killed my back. So all i got was the tank mounts on and step mounts on..for me being so young i really should have a photobucket account or something. i normally just relay on my facebook for pictures.

welp i am stuck until i get all my tools anyways though the grub screw that you use for the drive train (rear end i don't have a allen wrench small enough at my house, so i have to go to my parents house to get the rest of my tools from there.)

I didnt see it in there, with the stuff that came with it. Not worried i figured i had one with my other tools which i did now i have the rear axles all put together now just need to get it into a roller atleast or somethinf since work at a snails pace since being so anal with this kit.

Well got the rear end on the frame and the rear shocks put together and kinda surprised ho soft the springs all are. But everything is just loose for now cause gonna try a couple things before i actually button it all up.

lol that allen made me mad to becuase i didnt get one in my kit however me and my dads kits were both missing pieces and parts nuts and screws i prolly had to buy another 20 bucks worth of parts...thanks dad..

RICM,
My kit was missing 8 of the 3 x 8 mm screws and the 3 x 20mm were short too... I have not Idea what was going on but yep....it was not kool......... luckily the hobby shop here is very close to the house and open late hours LOL.....

yea thats very true werx really deos bend over backwards for us but i think for my next build i will be scratch buiilding now that i know what i need for sure and not all the other nine hundred bolts that you dont really need being as i think for around two hundred more with all upgraded parts and few factory pieces you can make a much nicer truck and not pay for incomplete kits
