fullfuel01 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 is it a Magnum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GearheadGrrrl Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Right on the swing clearance- you won't be able to slide the 5th wheel forward as far as you could before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Doctor Jr. Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 No its not a Magnum, but it does have the E9 in it.As for the light bar clearance issue. I cut the square tubing and notched it up into the frame. It sits no further back than the frame rail itself. I did move the 5th wheel anyway cause of the fenders. I put a 5th wheel slide all the way to the back of the frame to help get under trailers and to clear the fenders too. Ive put alot of thought in it all and hope it works as planned.

Timothy Maikshilo Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Of all COE trucks I think the MH looks the best. Having an E9 is very nice too. Very nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frmconcrete09 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Where did you get the light buckets , or did you just fab them from steel pipe.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Doctor Jr. Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 They are hand made out of steel pipe. cut with a cut off wheel or a die grinder. Me and a friend are gonna start making them and selling them. they take a lot of time and patients. Lots of man hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Doctor Jr. Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 Some paint that I put on the frame and more later.....4 gallons worth lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAD DOG Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Frames do soak up a lot of paint, more if you use black epoxy primer, and cover it with a lighter colour, like red. Thats what I did on my Superliner frame, it ate up a good 3 gallons. Your MH looks real good, makes me miss mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Doctor Jr. Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 just a painted up fuel before the rino lining. fenders mounted with the rino lining on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
