Thanks......It does seem to turn alright at this point....the speed thing might be a problem, I do have it geared down now to what I hope will provide enough power when it is loaded...that little motor and gear box has a crazy amount power but it still may not be good enough considering the size of the tires and the size and weight of the truck....should have used ALM....but I can't weld ALM.....more like I just can't weld....LOL

Thanks...it is starting to look like a truck ,not very true to scale but more of a "looks about rightish" build.....I wish the tires were a bit bigger and wider...
I really want to see this thing finished and hauling a load as well !!
(besides I need to get started on the shovel so someone stops hounding me about it....Reg...LOL
