HiYa Folks,
Looking for suggestions/recommendations for Medium Duty hanging pedals. After looking at my truck and how they designed the front cab mount, it would be more trouble to re engineer M35 front cab mounts on my M135 than it is worth. I will save the pedals I got from Deuceman for...
HiYa Folks,
Planning ahead here...

Plan A is getting the bed that Paul found that is hacked 3 feet (which actually works for my truck) but I am worried about shipping (and negating any savings) and the seller isn't budging on the price though its been for...

Could I get someone to give me a few pics and measurements of the clearance between the grill and winch looking down from the top, lower tank to nearest winch interference Looking up from the ground and winch shaft to lower tank from transmission looking forward. It looks like the Freightliner...
