Re: Rear cross member/lights
Thanks guys! I had a quick browse over the vendors but I must've missed RCP's bumpers.

Re: Volvo FH12 Heavy hauler build
Great so far. 8x4 is probably one of the most popular layouts over here in my country but the steerers are close together up front. Looking forward to seeing your progress :)
