Susan's black Pete is a 75 MHz receiver. I connected the eyelet terminal on the end of the antenna to one of the exhaust stack mounting screws. I figured copper tubing should make a good antenna.
Our neighbourhood lots are 50ft wide and I have had the truck 3 houses down before any trouble. 150ft is lots!

Nice looking dump you have there, I like the paint scheme as well. Front bumper is looking good. Keep the pics coming.

Here are a few more pictures of the new bumper, I like this styrene stuff. I think I am going to make a brush guard for it as well.:D

Thanks, I wasn't really sure about the paint at first but I am starting to really like it now. The black and orange is vinyl.:)

Nice job on the bumper, fits your truck perfect. That paint is cool too. Nice work!

Re: King hauler Dump Truck
 

well I cut the brush guard (or what ever you want to call it) out today with he waterjet out of 1/8" stainless. I like it but I am not sure if I am going to use it. Its not mounted thats why it is leaning forward:confused:[IMG]http://i979.photobucket.com/albums/a...t/DSCF1074.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i979.photobucket.com/albums/a...t/DSCF1073.jpg[/IMG]

Truck looks great! Really like that bumper and brush guard makes the truck look like a real work horse!

Re: King hauler Dump Truck
 

Thats kind of what I am going for is a truck that you would see in your area working everyday and the owner fabricating his own parts.:D
