Default Re: Twin Screw FH12 "Aussy Over Haule"

Thanks for the input guys.. I have been held up as I have been looking for rectangle longer tanks I could get and remove the side skirts and put the tanks on. I also have been trying to find wheels with the right look.. I know alot of Aussy truck run 5 or 6 spoke wheels but I cant find any picks of FH12's running them style wheels..

I plan on losing the upper air dam and running twin air breathers on the roof top.

On the wheels, I think the older g88 did, and the F12 may have run the spiders, but the newer FH12, I am not so sure of...

FH12 on spiders are rather rare but still around.

one

two

Square fuel tanks are more common nowadays. I´d go with two round ones.

For the breathers you might want to use some real aussie intakes, elbows, t´s and straight connectors

quad dog I'm really leaning towards the spider wheels in round tanks for sure I really like to look at that blue truck that you posted. I want to keep the truck the color that it is even though it doesn't pop like the blue one does maybe some sort of Strip to set it off. can you tell me where to get that an air cleaner parts you just posted that is exactly what I'm looking for
