Thanks Russ, I'll keep an eye out. A chassis kit with front axle, front suspension and steering linkage would be nice!

Russ have you ever thought about making one of those sleepers out of a solid block? Eliminate the screws and add some serious heft and traction to a truck.

I know it! LOL! And Russ doesn't help either! The Rat Rods came about because I was bored one day and we were talking on the phone. Next thing I know, he's taking my money and I have a new project!

I saw that trailer on YouTube once. Not sure I would want to ride that low to the ground under a giant concrete beam. Be some serious anus puckering going on.
