Jonj238 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 I've recently started building big rigs after building almost every Mopar twice. I'm not looking for an award quality build, but I like to add as many details as I can. I did a Google search and found an acceptable way to make coiled air lines for my trucks, but a tractor without a trailer, the air hose looks stupid without a glad hand on the end of it. While I was searching on a way to make air hoses, I ran across a site that sells 1/25 glad hands, but I didn't save the site because I wasn't interested at the time. Now that I need them, I can't find any place that sells them. Anybody know a site that I can order glad hands from? Or an easy way to make them? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks

Petetrucker07 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Sorry. I hate when I think faster than I type.
SfanGoch Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 Sorry. I hate when I think faster than I type. I just happened to have the site up looking at the Mack B-61 cab when I saw the thread.
Jonj238 Posted January 25, 2015 Author Posted January 25, 2015 Thanks for the help. I placed an order with him. The order process is a bit odd though.

mdlbldrmatt135 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 I haven't had a set printed for myself yet. Funds have been a bit limited.
gatorincebu Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 For realistic airlines and glad hands. Try Earl Miller. I think his handles is earlaskew? I bought tens sets before I left the States two years ago. He makes a great product. Be Well Gator
