The Neway pusher is a spring lift , not air lift.

Were did you get the Neway pusher axle

Years ago when superglue first came don't, you specifically had to have a smooth shiny surface to get the best strength. I wonder if they have changed the glue nowadays.

Can I cut the hood to make the fenders up front tit right

I just did some searching on 3D printing came across your channel. Enjoy your videos very informative. My grandson is fascinated with garbage pickup trucks and the containers that you put to the curb the one you have been working on is so cool but this 3D printing is something new to me. Being a retired conductor and having a HO layout Is it possible to print HO train crewmen or yard crew men for my layout. You would't think it would take any time to print these in HO. Keep up the great videos.

I.have an original.california version peterbilt, i made my Duel truck with it!!!

Where can I buy a lift axle

What. Kind of cement or glue You recomend? I m new in this hobby.

Can I ask what chassis your using??? I have the same kit and dodge resin cab,I used the amt Louisville Ford

David R Lentz, Dublin, Ohio USA This resin kit of the Ford (1958?) N-900 Medium-Duty Conventional Cab Truck looks SO interesting! The lack of any assembly instructions I find deeply daunting. Ideally, I would like at least four, one as a single axle, the second as a double (with several spare parts left over!). The fourth I would place in a contemporary setting, making it look rather worn and world-weary (dents, faded paint, some rusting, etc.), though not to excess. Have you since finished your build of this kit? If so, have you made a video of it? Would you have made an after-the-fact assembly instructions that might facilitate our efforts in building the kit? On a personal note, I hope you are feeling well. I know firsthand what chronic illness and physical disabilities can mean to people.

My cousin had every Ertl / John Deere plastic model. I was always jealous. At our age He built them without painting anything too.

How do I know if I’m working with resin ?

These Dodge cabs do not have a tilt hood. They have a conventional type hood and the front fenders swing out from the sides hinged at either side of the radiator.

Thank you for this video. A friend sent it to me as I'm contemplating building a "toter home" project that would haul a race car. Great information!

I saved my fifty cents allowance for weeks, until I saved the $5.00 plus shipping in 1969. Mailed the money to my cousin in Edina, MN who picked it up at the hobby shop and mailed it to me. But I recall the 40' Fruehauf van trailer kit I bought later had the coupon for the bunk kit. Cost a dollar

Mate I’m Australia and we don’t have a lot of places that truck resin accessories, could you give me some options that I could consider

Not horrific at all but definitely not for beginners, the seam in the cab and lack of parts numbers is the only real problem. Plus if you plan the edges of that cabinet, the interior won’t fit it’s already tight enough.

Does the kit currently sold by Round2 have 2-piece tires, or regular ones?

Howdy there Ben, doin' a check in with ya since I see this as last posted video (?) hoping all is well sir.

I have watched this video several times and you give some nice info on frame stretching. Recently I subscribed to your channel and it's chocked full of good info. Currently I'm working on stretching a Peterbilt Revell kit 85-2627 Level 5. Out of the box it looks roughly to be 9-3/8 inch equivalent to roughly 234 inch wheel base. I'm looking to add 3 inches with the splice precisely between two cross members of which the carrier bearing being on the forward cross member of the two. I've got some Plastruct C-Channel on order but the exact height of rails isn't available from my supplier. So I ordered the next size smaller and next size bigger. I have some 1/2 I-beam Plastruct that I've been carving to size and will probably make extra cross members as well. The carrier bearing I will have to build from scratch unless you know of a source where I can order from on carrier bearings. In closing any advice would be appreciated. On a humorous side, If you want to make diesel fuel I know a guy that's old school and blends Marvel Mystery Oil with gasoline. Thanks!

You should make a book about the tips you have

Love your videos

Hope they do a step deck

I hate the seams not only on fueltanks and the engine, also in springs, frontaxle etc. I always sand the off... Great tips and the Fords are great.

Thank you for your informative video. During Covid lockdown, I picked up the hobby of building 1/12 Bandi Star Wars droids and now I'm working on building sets or dioramas for toy photography. With help of KZbin content creators, I have learned a lot. Thank you for these tips.

Thanks a ton for the review of this model kit as I was looking to purchase one to build! It's a real shame that everything tractor related seems to be 1/16 and pre-built. I understand the popularity in that of course, it would just be nice to have various model kit options and in 1/25 to match the trucks! Thanks again! Looking forward to picking up several of the classic Ertl kits.

Tanks,fenders, wheels need info,web site...etc etc

Where can you get them,1100/24

Thank you,good information, if you had any trucking experience you would understand the concept, build a peterbilt year ago with a 3408 engine,without any parts available I wanted to extend the frame,add custom exhaust stacks,20,30 yrs.later I don't know if they're available anymore,I think they were 1/16,1/8 scale,later came out with flat bed trailer...where can you fine? keep up the good work 👍☕️☕️✌️

for your engine paint, use NYC Jade green.

I liked the scavenger.i had the monster truck version.i had a black ford mpc with just the the tilt front.

Hope to see it done

Hi Ben , thanks for all your knowledge. I’m also into building Trucks.

good tips ..thanks for bringing it up ..ive always tried other ways to fix the wide front axle issues ..some good ..most resulting in alot of spare parts kits ..also good to see another model truck builder ..there doesnt seem to be to many of us ..or im just not looking in the right places ..

Very good information, and presented well. Thank you.

Wish they would use that green glass in everything and those mini box

Nice vid Ben..... You doing OK? Haven't seen a vid in several months.

Hey Ben. New subscriber here. I'm getting back into modeling and I'd like to build a veeeerrrry stretched out Pete 359. Do you have a tutorial on how to do a long frame stretch? Thanks!

Ben, Great video! I agree with you Dave Natalie & Gary Wallace were some of the greats in the Model Truck building hobby! Taken away too soon. I knew Gary for about 40 years or so. Way before he started casting truck parts. He always had many ideas to make parts for everyone. Dave was the one that took Jim Etter's cab business and ran with the ball!!! Thanks for what you do!!!

Thought you were going to build it instead of talk about it

Thanks this helped with my model skills and I am 15 and keeping up the tradition of scale modeling

How would you go about chopping the top on a semi I would love to learn some custom rigs
