I decided to make a cyclops light for the Single cab.

1940 GMC Truck headlight, asymetric headlight bucket. I split them in half, took the good pieces and patched it back together. It fits the roof line dead on.

I also started my nose skin replacement.

Thanks for the kind words.

So, I have 5 different things on this bus that I'm working. Currently in the middle of swapping to short axle.

Yesterday, I starting the process to airbag the swingaxle trans. This is by far the easiest way I have ever found to do this. You sleeve the axle tube and weld the bag bracket right to it. Done.

Less parts = Less Problems.

Here I have a 2" x .109 wall DOM tube. This one is 39cm long and it gets pressed on.

I put a socket on the inside of the base so that I didn't mushroom the cup.

I left a 15mm gap between the sleeve and the end casting. This allows room for my custom drop extension and the spring plate, plus maybe 1/2 mm.

Here's a sample of when I did Scot's Vert. Same concept, Bag brackets welded right to the axle tube sleeve. Easy Cheesy.
