That is like a mini version of the real truck. Awesome work. Just one question. How did you make the front and rear axles?

Most of the suspension parts , axles, air bags, radial arms( control arms), diff housing, diff covers. are all out of resin....the plastic control arm took me 4 hours to build....then I made the mould and cast them.....each cast took 1 1/2 hours to detail.... This kit was a snap tight. the whole drive train is basically scratch built     |

All your hard work really paid off. Where did you snag the tires?
