Default My stretched Pete's brother 8x8 dumper

This is my first attempt at building a dump truck. I started with a King Hauler kit, stretched the frame, added a rear axle to make it a tri axle, made a day cab (twice) didn't like the first one, added a driven front axle and fabed a aluminum dump bed.

This is where I'm at now

Let me know what you think, I built a screw drive for it and am thinking of controlling it with a second speed control or a relay, any thoughts on which way is better?

Thanks
