Hayes HD dump truck...RCP's style

[RCP57]

Thanks for the pictures Steve.

I had a couple things come in the mail today(besides bills)! I got the front suspension that I picked up from Alfy(thanks) and my order from RC4WD. Once I assembled the front suspension and figured out where it needed to go, I took it back apart and made up this big mount for the front springs and torque arms. I turned the axle around and swapped the spindles left for right so that the threaded holes pointed forward. This will give me an anchor point on the axle for the torque arms. I will also add more to this assembly so that the bumper is supported by it but this was enough for today. It is beautiful here and a shame to have spent most of the day indoors but I can't help myself....




Now that the front suspension is in I can almost see it driving around. Just need to mount the steering servo and buy a receiver....
