Throw a 16 foot Nahanni gravel box on that unit and I’ll be hauling in the morning ! What a smart looking truck …. 

Thanks Jeff. Thinking of making a triaxle Bison Dump Truck some day though.

I was sniffing around on the ‘net’ yesterday and saw a 6x6 General gravel truck …. It looked REALLY cool , it was just a tandem not a tri drive but it had the front drive axle with floats. It was a real sharp truck…… it would be a cool build along side Gary’s restomod ….. just throwing that out there. ???

6x6 is a cool thing for trucks.

Reminds me of my 6x6 Oilfield General!

Fun to build! Hope to see something similar Here someday!

Since you guys are on this discussion, I found this pic sometime ago. Didn’t realize the General came in other configurations. 
don’t want to steal your thread.

That looks cool! 

Nice Idea for a build! ?

The General is really a truck for multiple purposes!

You can make anything out of it from a two axle day cab tractor to beer truck (?) or anything in between! It always looks cool.

Keep going! Love to watch this!
