hi, Just wanted to show off my finished tri-axle. This is my first full custom king hauler. Its built on 30" frame rails with 3 powered drive axles. Full lights and sound. Looks better in person, color did not photo well. metal flake gold and metal flake black.

That looks really sweet! Nice subtle touches and not over done, I would be real proud if that was my first personalised truck!

Could I suggest some mesh behind the grille and some hub covers for the rears? Otherwise that is (literally) golden! B)

Clean build! Not criticizing so don't take it wrong but I think if you turn those stack relocation mounts around they will more less disappear. I could be wrong as I have never owned any.

Thanks, That is what I was going for, not a full blown show truck , just a nice clean looking truck that could still be considered a working truck. I have the factory mesh in the grill, I think the camera flash showed the electronics through the grill. In person you can't see through the grill that well. I do have some hub covers, but they are raw finish, not polished, so I don't like the way they look.

Yeah, I think you are right. Its not possible to get to the mount bolts with the cab on the frame, so if I ever take the can off, I will flip the mounts. Thanks for the heads-up.

Very clean build, the colors look good on screen. Can only imagine how good it looks in person...

What if you paint your muffler mounts the same color as the cab , wouldn't jump out at you as much . But I didn't see them until I read all the posts . Mike

Great looking truck, man you've done a great job. I'd like to see it in the sunlight for the flake to pop. Once again nice job!!

Got the stack mounts turned around. Had to re-drill the mount, to get it to mount this way, but looks 100% better.

The mounts looks way better now, can't even tell they are there. Nice job.
