The front axle is a mid 60s international 8 lug I beam, hich i converted to disk brakes and fully rebuilt with new king pins,wheel bearings,seals, alipers, otors, rake hoses,hiem joint steering ends and wheel studs. The rear end is a Dana 70 3.55 gears out of a 1991 dodge ram, hat has all new seals, rake shoes, heel cylinders,and full synthetic oil. Tires are 315/75x16" on steels wheels front and back. The rear of course you will notice is duals, hey have custom 2.5" aluminum spacers between the wheels which are hub centric.

I finished this truck June of 2014, as been to alot of shows around the state of Oregon and won many trophy. I built it to drive and that what we have done with it, ts not a trailer queen.
