So images show ride height with low pro wheels. Also bracket for cab support. Cut the bottom of the cab so it sits flat to the rails. Also made a hinge for the bonnet and theres an interior shot of how gearbox sits

I'm goign to steal your idea of mounting the cab to the frame with the angle brackets. I was thinking of gettting all complicated..............taking a Tamiya century class floor pan, cutting it to size for the Mack body......................& well just over complicating things. I like simple! I will trim a bit more on mine, (to further clearance motor, & transmission, so that I can use that mounting system for the cab.

Re: Hostile's projects and various
 

Yeah go for it. Its not stealing haha. Im posting it to help out. Those brackets will be hidden by the fuel tanks etc

Re: Hostile's projects and various
 

Thank-you, I appreciate it.

well................2 hours to go, until I start my shift tonight. I suppose I'd better start getting ready. Off to work I go

Ok so still need to put on a couple of light housings on the roof, connect the snorkels with the crossbraces and fit the square tanks. Still more to get to finish the outside but its 98% done. Now to do the hard part for me. Electricals!

Re: Hostile's projects and various
 

Thanks guys! Forgot to mention i lowered the trailer. King pin is on a flat bar so it rides 10-15mm lower than standard
