$10ea + shippingI'm interested....what are you asking for them?

Thank you, I'm glad you guys are enjoying the thread. I will certainly take pictures of the 'April job' and share them with the S.S. members.Is there a chance that the "job" in April would include a camera for "action" photos of your awesome creation? Would be wonderful to see her in operation in her intended environment, earning her keep and justifying her creation! Just an idea. Thank you for sharing your MFG with us here on S.S. Some how, each of us, is living his/her fabrication dream through your thread! LOL
God bless,

There is, was, a dump truck running around here with a fifth wheel under the dump bed. When work is slow they pull the dump bed and use it as a tractor.Yes, I will try to make the 'modules' fit over the permanently mounted fifth wheel. I'm not sure yet if I can make it work that way, but the idea is to widen the subframes on the modules so they fit around the outside of the fifth wheel.
There will be two ISO twist lock mounts with the standard ISO dimmension between them, on the front of the cargo area. The two rear ISO twist lock mounts will be located just outside the trucks frame rails. This will keep them out of the way of a semi trailer when turning. I will cover the construction of all that in this thread, when I get to that point.....got to get the truck drivable first....![]()
Tony,"Prairie engine"? Could you please elaborate Ferro?

I think I may have found the easy way to keep the fifth wheel mounted and use the truck for other stuff check out the Jost duel height fifth wheel.Yes, I will try to make the 'modules' fit over the permanently mounted fifth wheel.
