My Stretched globeliner

I don't know about removing the tires, just because they are covered with fenders. I'm of the train of thought that the details always matter, even when you don't readily see them. For me, it's all about the details. You can still see the tires are not the normal run of the mill treads. The sidewall gives some of it away too. Make the people look close, and they'll be surprised if they find all these little differences and touches.

as if you needed another opinion on the tires, if it was me, I'd probably sell them off and put something else on since your going w/ the fenders. You could most likely get something else and make a few bucks in the mean time (for more parts!!!!)

I like the direction this build is taking! can't wait for more update!

Thats not a half bad idea!! Would the stock tires lower my rear end any? that may be the route i need to go to stop my king pin from smacking my frame when i back up to the trailer. i plan on adding something to the bottom of the landing gear.

Yes i like details alot! However ive been thinking about taking my drive tires and swapping for the trailer tires, poss making the trailer a spread axle in the process..

Ive searched a few places and googled, but does anyone know who makes a kit to add more lights??? how many extra lights can i add to the MFU with out any extra stuff?

So i was able to get some more work done again today. I started to make one of the 2 toolboxes im going to make for the trailer heres where im at so far with it.




Gotta fill in some stuff on it , make hinges and a door before i can sand and paint it, but i think its turning out ok.

Also started working on the perminant mounts for the fenders and here is what i came up with. took some brass strips and drilled a hole bent it to fit in the shock mount




The fenders were sitting too high on the brass stips so i decided to notch out the fenders where they would sit on the mounts



So now they sit level and nicely with a perfect fit and have full clearence with all levels of movement of the tires




Also had time to move the possition of the visor so it has the more agressive look to it. Sorry for the bad pics here.



What do ya think so far?
