I have never seen one of these things before, but it looks huge! Definitely an interesting model. I'm interested to see this thing come together for you. The box looks really, really good. Nice job, Steve. It appears you scaled it down quite a bit, to match your tire selection. What scale are you building this Mack in?

Steve , here's a link http://store.rc4wd.com/MIL-SPEC-ZXL-22-Tires_p_724.html I'm not sure just yet on using them I should have them look like the 1's tom made . I'm going to go through RC Machines . I think they have the right size and tread pattern . If all else fails I'll use these , they scale out right .

Nate , reply # 6 1: 14.5 I only ever got to see the small single axle 1's . I think that place had 1 of these , I just can't remember . Since the quarry changed owners , I believe they scraped them they made my f800 ( at the time ) look like a pick-up truck .

I'm hopping to have the frame together tonight . If I get my rear parts for next week end , I'll try to get my rears made .

IHSteve
