Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
Steve I like it a lot but I think you need to move it up half of the space you have now. But I love the look of it..

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
Steve I agree. The height from the ground is perfect though. Can you get stock that is 1/4" wider.

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
well my eyes get buggy after drilling 1000s of holes so I take a brake here and there and try to get some of my stuff finished . I made a stainless steel tool box to hide the pump in . not as pretty as Freddy's but it'll do . I think I'm going to put my bigger fuel tanks on though . these just look to small .
thanks for looking Steve

Re: IH5900i heavy haul tractor
Smaller tanks are common on the short hauler trucks - or company trucks......but Big tanks would clean up the space - unless you add a step section ........ she's looking better and better each time you post..
