That’s way more detailed, that would be really nice to have, wish I knew how to print or owned a printer. Thanks for that.

Thanks Jon, we will see where this goes

Thank you

Not familiar with him, do you have any contact info?

It does and helps tell a story about your build, adds interest

Do I foresee a build in your future?, Twin steer? Monster wrecker?

Share the same thought Ron, but I have been thinking about this. The hood, I am gonna try to cut the grill out ( where the screen is) add back the five bars and put a real grill screen in , remove the headlights, use a set of T600 headlights, but yes too thick. Cab, I am going to see what it takes to put an interior tub inside the cab. The sleeper is hollow, no floor, again steal some stuff from the T600 kit for sleep interior. We will see where this goes.

I really want to duplicate the inspiration truck, so today I purchased the C500 from Global with the small sleeper, I’ll save the other cabs for a rainy day or a replacement for an oops. I did notice some updated changes to the one I purchased, a plus. also going with the Eaton Fuller 18 speed transmission.

I have heard about the variable post strike, and it’s no issue, we can send em some day.

Clever idea

Thanks Ron, I break rules all the time but this build has really intrigued me, I generally don’t try to replicate a truck, I am more free form custom.

Yes Mike, these trucks are monsters with high horsepower motors

Thanks Bren, I am hoping to use the wipers you printed for me on this build if we can ever ship anything from Canada to US again. Many of the parts I ordered are coming from Canada, and we will see what happens.

I still don’t know what transmission to use yet, that’s next. I have purchased a few things from A&N, super quality stuff, but never gave them a thought. I just remember it took five weeks to get my order. I will give them a look again.

Thanks a ton Ron, not sure how I missed that, but got the suspension ordered this morning. Also got the tires ordered as well.

I can’t find it at ST Supply

Really, I will go look. 3D concepts also has it. If ima gonna buy tires, might as well throw some more stuff in there.

Good description on the suspension used on Pakcar https://newaysuspensions.com/

You guys keep making me spend more money🫣😂🥹, probably will do something.

Was at a different auction site today, it is good reference pics for sure.

OMG, the detail….you just can’t see all the details

Really like this build, coming together nicely.

Tires and wheels. I bought these 1:24 scale tires a long time ago but they for the wide 1:25 scale front rims perfectly. Because this is not an oilfield truck I want a road tire with thought of building a lowboy trailer with a Jeep and stinger, someday. I am sometimes curious about aftermarket scales and their compatibility but it works good. The rear rims are Auslowe 1:24 scale with some larger/taller 1:25 scale tires. For you purists, I just crossed the line 🤭😆. any help appreciated guys, jump in. This build is a little outa by box of skills.

Yes they are, and it appears there might be a couple versions of them.

I actually bought this kit from Global as a twin steer, but not using it.
