Thank you! Yes 7.4 lipo won't hurt them, just the 11.1v will definitely fry an MFU.

I was just gonna slap some paint on it just to give it some color but my OCD kicked in and had to give it a top paint job, just a simple working white truck... But , it had to look slippery

So much for not adding details, got the bulbs all installed and wired, air cleaners painted ( stock one ) and a small detail was added. I actually do not mind the stock ones, I think they look cool. Now all that's left is get the wires all wrapped up and we're ready for business.




Gonna remove that king hauler sticker and install the proper emblem





Box is not as cool as Reg's boxes but had to start somewhere. The hood will be flush-ish once I get the hinge adjusted.
That's is for now, thanks for looking!

Nice build! Lots of things that are unique to your truck, that's always nice to see.

That looks great to me! I like the way you painted the air cleaners. I also like the white on white look and the tilt hood.

How come nobody ever adds the old school chain hanging behind the mudflap? Would look good on an old dump truck.

Yes that's the plan Joe. I've been wanting to get some digging done since I got the machine, but Life always gets in the way.

Was gonna do it but my buddy with the older Mack R truck wanted that on his truck which will look awesome on his build so decided to go this rout.

I figured can't hurt to ask . I too hate painting the most
For someone who hates painting you did a real nice job. It shines!

I noticed another detail, looks like the stacks have a little touch of black soot on them?

Thanks Man! It's one of those projects that I just wanted to get done but at the same time I didn't want to half a$$ it.
