Project Cheap Hauler 6x6 W900

[jj650]

Closer to road legal, we need some lighting. I used True Scale light bezels in 3mm and 5mm. The GT Power unit came pre wired and had plenty of length for this build. I did have to add the five extra yellow LED's for the cab lights later on. I just used a Y harness to plug them into the headlight connector. The blinkers work with the controller motions and if you put it in reverse the backup lights come on. This does require two motions of the reverse stick to make that happen though.





I didn't have the cab lights in it when i took these pics. And i must not have taken one with reverse lights on.









And the wires run through heat shrink tubing to tidy them up a bit.

In searching for steel driveshafts i came across some china made units that fit this cheap budget build. Again, a long boat ride over but they are worth it i think. Pretty well built units so we will see how they hold up.













That was a pretty quick get you up to speed build. I'll post up some more things that went along with the build and events I've taken it too.....
