			As always great build!! I was wondering if you can get into a little more detail on you'r lift axle set up? I'm about to start on a lift axle. I'm at a lose on how to go about. I wish someone sold a unit like the lift axle unit for the Wedico trucks.

			Thanks for the comments guys.  The lift axle bend is actually made form a piece of 1/2 solid steel rod that i heated and bent.  I had turned it down to fir inside one of Ric's aluminum tamiya axles.  i had cut about 1 inch off of each end than inserted the steel axle in side it.
