Now that I've got the "Hollywood" trucks out of my system, I can get goin on this one!! Seems I have touble buildin straight out of the box,LOL. Got the frame put together and streched out. Usin the air ride from the IH 4070 that I got in junkyard box I got off of ebay You can see I streched her out quite abit in this shot Got the front axle centered And here's the reason for the strech. Not sure how it's gonna turn out. I hope it turns out ok, if not I'm gonna have one LONG day cab ;D ;D

Ah! I just noticed you're using the airbag rear suspension from an earlier transtar model. Nice.
