Tesla Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Looks awesome Terry...keep it up! I like the use of the Plastruct elbows fitted to the main exhaust pipe...cool idea!
Guest Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 After looking at photos of 1:1 Fruehauf dump trailers, I decided to add a few features. I realized I miscounted the front steps, so I removed two of them. I added ladders to both sides of the rear. The tailgate is about ready for paint. I also cut a hole in the front for access to the ram. The trailer looks good Terry. I'm glad you found the reference photos helpful.
Superpeterbilt Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 Thanks a lot guys. I have to admit, through all of the ways Ive tried making exhaust over the years, these elbows make it easy. The bender that I made for using small aluminum rod is a close second. This is the first time Ive done it this way, so we will see how it finishes out.The elbows were backordered for a bit but I managed to get a few packs. I put in a few hours work making fittings, wiring, and plumbing the 3406. Nothing worthy of pics yet, but in the next day or so.
