Default GripStigma's W900

Hey guys, this is my very FIRST custom truck build. I built my knight hauler back in 07' and kinda fell out of the loop, but im back and ready to do something different. This truck is dedicated to my recent loss of my namesaked grandfather who was an owner operator his whole life. Anyways, enough of that, onto the build!

It has a nice stance. Are you going to hack at the cab at all?

Thanks Nick, I will be getting on that next! 5in fuel tanks and kW steps! Paint is still an undecided step.. Lol and the frame is 3in over stock!

Thanks Allen, Truescale has been of much help! Thanks to you and Russ!

I might be doing a cab from truescale rc, and I would like to attempt to cut the sleeper down to be flush with cab.

Little update. Got some new stuff in today. Fresh new rubber on the truck, along with some new hub nuts!

Keep it going! You are off to a great start. Amazing how the wheel hubs dress these trucks up. They seem to turn the plastic chrome wheels into polished metal ones. Hard to tell the difference sometimes, they look that nice. Love the tires too.
