Thanks Paul!!!! It needed a longer wheelbase for that heavy haul look. Was gonna use it to pull my perimeter trailer. Think I'm gonna use Steve's locker box instead of that headache rack.

Nice job building this one Fred. Somehow it slipped past me and I never saw this project until today. Glad I did see it, and I was going ask you where the suspension bolster came from for the lift axle? I've never seen one like that before. It looks like it's machined aluminum.

Man I must have completely missed this thread....that old freightliner is cool. I like the old school spokes on it....wish trucks of today still had the class that these rigs had....Seams not to long ago we would see these trucks all the time....now you have to keep your eyes out for them
