Default Re: Michigan T-24 project

Typically I would clean it up and paint it, but this one was really bad it would be pretty pitted. When I pulled the rusted up headlight button it just crumbled ....
I started to use the WPL springs I even doubled them up but you could tell the truck was going to be way to heavy and it just wobbled around the walking beams are way more stable. I used springs on the front but they are stiffer and seem ok so far... I toyed with the idea of adding another set of out riggers but it was looking a little to involved, maybe on the next one...
The carrier is coming together faster than I thought it would... LOL.. notes on my conversion...I've studied yours and RVjim's builds for a couple YEARS still stealing ideas... as you will soon see
