I like the tricked out truck. Did you make the wheels for it or were they store bought? All you need now is a trailer and this rig is ready to roll.

| Registered User Sr. Member | The wheels are store bought. I worked on the rear treads with my dremal and drilled holes inside the wheel to make them look real. I added inserts to the front wheels to make them like a reverse dual like the real trucks have. I am going to build a lowboy trailer to go with this truck so that I can put a trackhoe that I already built on it. |

Nice work on both sets of wheels. The mods are kool.

| Registered User Sr. Member | Thanks for the compliments. Thanks for links for grizzly bobj3. Those plans are from toys and joys (toysandjoys.com) I have ordered a couple of patterns from them but I have never used them except for a reference on some details. My toys are smaller than those that Grizzly and Toys and Joys sell. I like to draw up my own patterns and sometimes I design them as I go. When I make one and sell it the next one is always different because I see something that I want to different. I already have a pattern for a lowboy that I made a couple years ago. |
