Re: Ford Aeromax 6x6 Log Truck

I wish it had the chrome tanks instead of the black ones with the battery notch cut out of them so I could ditch the side fairings completely and use a tank as a makeshift step up into the cab. Right...

Not going to spoil it for everyone but he snatched up the donor chassis from my boneyard, and is in the home stretch on a JK southern rock bouncer for me. When its done lets see what crawls out of...

Re: Ford Aeromax 6x6 Log Truck

Thats the biggest issue. I turned up the travel on my dx3c to 150%, but it needs a different link set up so I can get full lock to lock steering. The shift linkage had to run diagonal instead of...
