No doubt! One fine rig. I wasn't sure if those were from PMD or not, they look good. Hopefully I will see a few of them sometime here in the very near future.

Fred I a curious where the little man that runs this going to sit? Did you think of putting a cover over the bed and putting some of the electric's in there I know you are going to run a goose neck trailer but you could put a cover around were the fifth wheel is and use that space. Ed

Ed,the bed is only half as deep as it should be in real life.Tamiya left a nice place to stash the goodies. & like you said,trailer.
Well made the lower push bar & mounts.


Then the plow pin mounts,& now she hanges on the truck.

This is the blade in normal push mode.

This is the dumped (TRIP) mode.

This is all the up on the stops.


Thanks for lookin!

Your looking good Fred but even if the bed is half as deep you could still cover it like a tarp and stash things in there. Ed

Ed,I'm wrong about there being half the bed on top open.There's a whopping 1/2 inch of space.

All the room is under the bed,& that's gunna be packed full also!

Well front plow is ready for paint.



OK Travis, Now the back blade.


Trucker,the bumper is in the kit box.
Thanks for lookin!

Thanks there Paul! Yea,I'm a master ok! But of what? I don't know. But I try!
The back blade,she's a gitten close.
Found a sweet spot for the lift cylinder.


Framing & trip springs are done. Now hinges & lift mechanics,& then fire up the hydraulics!


Today they should work via hydraulics.

Donny thanks!
Yo,"00"! As soon as they show up I'm on it! BUT! Now that I have to wait for the fenders,might as well make a few accessorries for the truck.
So try not to laugh to hard.





Gotta do something w/the hydraulics,becides plow snow. So.... Make some nice kindling for the barbacue. Yea,I can see it now. Sittin on the back porch w/a beer buzz splitin twigs w/my rc log splitter.Maybe break out a box of twigs & this baby at a party.

That has to be a first and the best idea I have seen in a long time great job uncle Freddy. Just keep your fingers out of it because I am gonna bet it would hurt like hec for just a second till it cutts the finger right off.

Warning this product is not recomended for users under 16 yaers of age or a Red Neck with a case of beer and and a "Hay yall watch tis atitude".
