Re: M26
Hello
I just found this build post and My jaw is still on the bench WOW! I don`t think you should put yourself down about your body work WOW. Sorry I didn`t see, what is the scale of your build? Also about the truck and trailer, could you tell me the size of the aluminum rails and where you got them from? Is it possible for you to post a list of the parts sources you got your parts from? How did you get your measurements for the large scale build? Thanks Again for Posting, Keep them coming PLEASE. George |

Re: M26
well looking at what Travis and Lynn got going makes me want to rethink alot of this truck so, with some of the newer parts out I am going to redo the frame rails and re look at the front winch as well as rear suspension and of course rims and tires. Then the part that still is baffelling me is the dual winch on the rear cause I want this to have 3 working winches. so over time when I can work on this I will have to do some up dates.

Re: M26
Merritt, 1 of the reasons I chose the soft top version is that I don't think I could compete with yours The rear winches are an ongoing concern of mine also. No problem getting a winch for the front but the 2 rear winches so close together is going to be a tuff nut to crack. Plus they are suppose to be run off of a PTO which I don't see happening on my version!!
