ShakyCraftsman Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) Hey all I'm in dire need of a Monogram 1/16 scale Kenworth W900 Conventional passenger side frame rail. The one I just got is a short shot on the the two rear air bags. As you can see the bottom frame rail rear is totally messed up! It should look like the upper one in the photo (only for the other side). closer view of the problem.😭🤬🙏 praying for help.

Matt Bacon Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 You might need to fall back on some sheet styrene (or old credit card) and some tube stock (or a cheap ball point pen barrel). You’ve got the other side to use as templates, and the individual parts that are short shot are symmetrical, so you only need to draw round them to copy them. I may be wrong, but that seems a more likely solution than someone having a whole spare frame rail they don’t need… best, M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I kind realise that I'll probably have to go that route, but I fgured I would give it a try and see what comes up. There's a guy on Ebay that has a complete rolling chassis for sale, but he wants $160.00 plus shipping and tax! Thats more then I payed for the whole kit!

ShakyCraftsman Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 Hey all I think I might have found one from a guy on YouTube that had a extra one left over from his build. Ron G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwc43 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Check one of the truck sites like AIT or SourKrauts. You should be able to buy a set of air bags or complete frame rails and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
