I like the idea of the step box to hide the pump, I think I will be ordering one when they are ready great job Steve.

[Bigrigger]

Great to see this rig is still okay! Your fab work is awesome! This truck and trailer combo is really starting to take shape!

[JAMMER]

The trailer looks real good Steve. I see you are doing your own steering axle make sure you put some caster in it. Ed

[ihbuilder]

thanks guys All tidied up read to dump but wedico pump ESC got no hair for this pump still need to make the lower step but outa time



thinkin of remaking the lower cab trim to a milled piece later on

Ed it has caster

[ihbuilder]

few more updates I got tired of air ride so off it came and on with the hedrickson walking beam Now all my trucks have em (no pics of that yet ) I must be gettin somewhere in life to finally get some quick couplers and real RC batteries . I also made a new rear light panel and threw away the mold . The amber dot is supposed to be clear when I get them in . on it's 3rd front bumper , can't make up my mind .

fit to be tied waiting for this lathe to show up :rant:

[Bigrigger]

Good lookin' improvements Steve! Can't wait for more progress!

[Espeefan]

I see what you're up to Steve. I would try and tighten up the gap between the vertical rows of lights. That or double them up. To much gap between the H and the I.

Nice build so far steve....definitely looks like a heavy duty

[tracksntreadslou]
