Then one more to shorten the deck.

Then all 3 back together but I have to reconnect the bracing still but here is how it looks.

Now since the truck is a 1 5/8 taller than a stock semi I need to make a new neck for the trailer. I am going with the set up the HET M1000 has with a bending point at the front of the trailer that the neck hooks too. Also the neck will be made out of 1/2 plastic sheet..
