  1. I did the light blue one after one that I seen parked here in town. The battery box is located behind the fuel tanks and the fuel tanks are under the cab not the sleeper. The stacks were not on the real one so the pipe comes direct from the muffler and out the bottom of the truck. I also added the pull handle on the fifth wheel on this truck. you can see it in the picture if you look closely at it.
