Good observation! It is a 'Soni Version' of the FV432....lol

Hmmm....Just an APC and some Snocats.....:whistle: lol

Ok.....I will see what I can do for pics on the loco move.... :driver: Soni

How to make a simple air intake reducer..... Today was not a super productive day, since I have to get my M920A1 ready for another locomotive 315 move. I still got a few things accomplished though, like installing the last missing elbow and a salvaged section of stainless steel flex tubing of...

Thanks mendo, as you can see I fixed the exhaust and added a muffler so I can legally use my Jake brake in Colorado. It was pretty loud without the muffler anyway..... I'm supposed to get the missing elbow in at NAPA today, so hopefully I can get the exhaust all done today.....

Hmm....I basically agree with you....the problem I see though is that the tag on the new Mk48 cab showed the original purchase price from Oshkosh to be $25835.70 for just the cab! I'm afraid that this would make for a very expensive truck......:roll: Soni

First of all, thanks to everybody for the votes of confidence! It sure helps that you guys here keep me going with all your encouraging comments! I'll be honest, there where times this summer that I did get pretty frustrated with not having this truck done already. I really hate it when a...

Today I finished the driver side engine hood. I still have to add the rubber latches and the gas strut that holds the hood in the open position when servicing the engine. I made the section on the rear stationary so I can run the hose from the air cleaner through it. Tomorrow, after the paint...

So the UPS man brought some more 'goodies' last week, which enabled me to 'almost' complete the air intake system and the exhaust. Colorado (right next door to me) requires trucks to have a muffler in order to be able to use their Jake-brake. So I had to find room for it in the already cramped...

Well....I finally got a few more things done.... After much debating and changing my mind I finally decided to NOT install the 45,000# drag winch between the crane and the engine doghouse. I just don't want all that additional weight on the front axle. In addition the cable routing over the top...

Well I can feel and totally relate to your 'pain'. Seems like every time I finally get started back on the FEMTT project, somthing more important comes up. Glad to see that you at least find some time to work on the SEMTT, it is looking really good! Keep the pictures comming! Soni

Hey guys! Sorry about the delay in updates but I had to work on money-making jobs again...aua Anyway, I'm back on the FEMTT project and hopefully this time I can get it at least operational. I got the muffler in and I'm working on the plumbing for the air cleaner and the exhaust. I'm also...

Air Cleaner Update Well, I finally had time to paint and install the air cleaner. This allowed me to fabricate the mount for it on the driver side of the ROPS. I can now figure out how to route my air intake plumbing and get the right tubing and rubber elbows. I also mounted the upper section...

It's an FV432 APC.....just in case I have to go get groceries..... lol Yeah....but these are unbolted already.... Ya ya....excuses excuses!!!....lol And yes we sure did! :)

Hoods and Air cleaners.... Ok...here is an update and a few new pics as requested: I went to the local logging company and bought an air cleaner off of one of their old, derelict Peterbuilts. As expected, there were many different coats of paint that had accumulated on it over the years. Since...

Ha ha Dave.....you mean like an "old man with bloodshot eyes" likes WELDERS..... :)

Hmmm....ok I think that this post is borderline hi-jacking my thread.....:whistle:

Maybe......8)

Just teasing you Mark! :) I't says: G-Force Speciallty Transportation LLC. Hope you are well yourself Soni

Really not sure that the door can "talk" Mark.....but just because it is YOU.....I will ask it tomorrow anyway..... :roll:
