MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
I am as excited as a kid on Christmas. I received my Grand Hauler yesterday, and I was totally surprised. I haven't started on it just yet, I'm deciding where too start...possibly the body work. Well here is the truck and some items I have got for it so far.
I have a lot of plans for this beast, and I have to order quite a few parts if I want this to be a KW. Thanks for looking, Big John

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
Are you going to get a rolling chassis going while waiting on those parts?

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
Well I got started building today, but I didn't achieve much, but it felt good wrenching.
While I am here, could anyone possibly make the marker lights above the headlights, or maybe know of someone? Thanks! Thanks for looking, Big John.

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
Thanks! But I didn't do much today either, I had things to do around the house...you know that thing called life? But I'm going to try to get some serious progress done tomorrow.

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
For the amber marker over headlights, how would a 3mm led with the base painted silver look? From that angle in pic i can't tell if it needs a rear cover, or if it's in fender.
It's a good start

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
Im liking the look of this project. What about cutting down a pair of roof lights? Hardest part would be chroming them after the chop.
Edit- these are on garden trucking. Might be more suitable as it can have the led run through the mount. And if you want you could cap the end like i suggested above. http://www.gardentrucking.com/detail...D#.WsIFFNCubqA Last edited by Hostile; 04-02-2018 at 06:29 AM. |

Hope you find them!
Where can one find the lights that hang off the left and right of the front bumper? |

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
Finally I am making some progress. I love the tie rod, it gives a tighter turning radius, and the shaft between the rear axles looks beefy. I shouldn't have any problem with that little bad boy. Here are some pic's.
Thanks for looking, Big John

Re: MY NEW GRAND HAULER/KENWORTH BUILD
That tie rod, where did you acquire it? I LOVE it, & want very much to get one like it for my builds.
That jackshaft looks tough. I foresee NO potential problems in that area. |
