F350 Dually and gooseneck trailer

[teifert2429]

Really great builds. I like the lights on the trailer. Really adds that scale feel

Thanks guys. The dually and tundra setup is something I've been wanting to do since I built the big Ford. It turned out well for Powerhouse Offroad.
It's a big ol' showtruck pulling a TTC tundra. Some may not say it's scale, but a ford on 49s and a tundra on 54s is nothing out of the ordinary down south (where I spent the majority of my time). If you want to see the inspiration for my showtruck, check this link. I saw it driving down the road one day and almost crushed a porsche.

The firetruck is still in the works and will be getting some attention from Lappdogg soon.

If you haven't seen big Fords in the wild...here's something to look at.





Thanks for looking. Greg

I just came across this video on youtube and had to share it. I almost fell off the couch laughing, because I had a similar issue with the tundra loading...but nothing like this! Sorry for the language. Turn the volume down if there are kids in the room! Enjoy!

... What an idiot

[AX10wannabe]

hey bulldog.. what kind of front bumper is on the ford? i just got my crew cab painted today and finally have a decent pay cheque coming so i want to find a cool looking front bumper.

[Bulldog]

AX, I built it from scratch. It's .08 and .06 styrene, brakeline that has been brazed and lights and blah blah blah. I've been asked to make them, and just don't have the time right now. Give it a shot...it's pretty fun.

WOW those are some of the best photography Ive seen. Those rigs look so real. Great job bra.

I'm working on something right now. It won't be soon, but I'll post up when I can. Subscribe to the thread and you'll get an update when it happens.

Killer trucks man. I'm in the process of building a cc dually myself right now but I'm not making mine 4wd. It will lay on the ground with adjustable suspension. I have a 2 place gooseneck car trailer I made that it will be towing also.

Post up a build thread when you get it going. I can appreciate any Crewcab out there...even if it's rolling low.

Will do man. Here's a pic of where it's at, at the moment. Still a long ways from done.

If you're going for scale (true to the crewcab body) it looks like the rear portion of the cab needs to be sucked in a little. The bed looks a little long as well. I stretched my bed by almost an inch just for kicks with the dually setup. If you want it custom and crazy long...it's there.

[Pozr]

Yea I made the bed a little extra long on purpose. I've been building custom 1:1 minitrucks for some time now so this is going to be completely minitruck inspired lol. I think once the styrene work is done in the cab it will look a Lille better but we shall see I guess. Thanks for the advise tho

Whoa! Totally random, I haven't been on the forum in forever and I just happened to see my old thread pop up! I still have both. Life is wayyyy busy and my whole collection is packed into a closet! I had a rebuild planned. New chassis, updated looks etc. Probably will never happen!!!!
