So...... Trailer with 3 people, 275-300lbs??

BTW, THANK YOU!! My arthritic fingers thank you for the Rod End Tool you made!! I've literally about worn it out, but it still does it's job! I just have to hold the end a little tighter.
So, I guess I'll be interested in another one soon!

Thanks for the comments! Tapatalk doesn’t notify me when subscribed threads are posted for some reason.

They loved it. One of them did not want to be removed from the trailer at all.

The rear Ottsix U4 tires and CI foams were screaming for mercy!

Hahaha. No doubt. That thing had an oversized load.

On a side note. I have a brand new never opened CXT that I’m thinking of selling. What is your best guess of its value?

NIB, Shipping depends on how far it has to travel but I would say around $150-200 plus shipping. I've paid up to $250 shipped for a NIB truck but I needed the exact color truck for a cab build and the guy wouldn't budge on the price, had to do it.

Dude the trucks you build are SO sick! I’m DYING to get my hands on a 1/6 CXT but have been looking on eBay for moths and haven’t seen a single one pop up.

Any tips on tracking one down?

Much thanks. I still have an untouched stock cxt here but have plans for it sometime.

Just keep searching FB groups and Ebay for various keywords. CXT, custom body, newbright truck, etc.

Yeah I've been poking around on Ebay for them out of curiosity and haven't seen any lately.

Glad I built mine when I did and it makes me want to be even more careful with the one I do have.

Decided to read this build again, such a cool rig in person and reading the build just makes it that much better!

What are those tiedowns you are using? Brought or custom made?
