Thanks! The GRU is an Integy unit. It was recommended by Travis(fhhhstix) I picked up mine from Ebay. I'm still working on making everything fit, but it should work out. I may not be able to use the vibrator but well see!

Ahh, that's more like it! When you tease posted the cab on the chassis, minus the hood and dump box, I was a bit disappointed! Glad to see you gave in and had to try the whole combo together. That's nice! Now hurry and finish it up! It's so close.

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump update 9/13/11 Paint!!!!

I think when Nathan seen the cab and chassis He thought you were going to go with a heavy haul Pete tractor for a minute and give him a run for his money, LOL!

Looks great Brian!

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump update 9/13/11 Paint!!!!

Thanks Brian I will see if I can find myself one.

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump update 9/13/11 Paint!!!!

Very sweet man! Looks like you'll be dumpin' in a couple of weeks! :D

the front fender over that oversize tire is SPOT on!

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump update 9/13/11 Paint!!!!

Looks awesome Brian!

Now that you mention it, I'd love to see Brian build another just like that. In yellow, though. What do you say, Brian?

Re: Pete 357 tri-axle dump update 9/13/11 Paint!!!!

Great job! This is by far one of the best!
