    The repair looks good! The putty I use for areas like yours is Milli- put. It's a two part putty, spreads smooth, and can be shaped w a dab of water. Most well stocked lhs should carry it

    My holy grail would be a manufacturer create the front discharge mixer! Several of these pass me everyday, and would make a cool kit

    Killer work on your build! Never thought your Tony car could be outdone, boy was I wrong! Gotta check it out in fulton

    I'm assuming the thinner wall tubing is prone to kinking? A suggestion to fill the tubing w salt or fine sand , cap the ends it with tape, then bend slowly could help. I used the method on k/s tubing for exhaust and it worked great. Hope it helps Keep up the great work

    Now this is how a logging truck should look!! The frame wash and wear looks great, and the dusty dull appearance on the cab and tires..wow!! Did you seal the cat yellow then apply the wash? Thanks

    Thanks for the idea! I took a tour thru the firehouse and immediately realized the truck wasn't the same !! Our dept has a Spartan Evolution. ...guess I'll have to scratch one instead

    Love the weathering! What materials did you use for it? I usually use AK products on my armor builds

    Thanks...I've already Google lift axle. It's a tag..behind the drive axles on an Oshkosh front discharge mixer that. Just curious who makes the real one for better images

    The mixer I'm working on has a lift axle that I need to scratch build, and curious of the manufacture to have a better understanding of what I'm building. I am new to trucks so the major parts confuse me! here's a photo of the lift axle any help welcome! TIA Jeff

    Great start Chuck! Our local FD had one of these for a water truck, I've always thought about trying my hand building one.
