Mud flaps

Well, Got bored today and stuck the regular exhaust on and made me up some mud flaps and put the toolbox back in. Check it out.

That's a good and unique application for the CUMMINS plates.

Unloaded it rides very rough. when loaded with a garden tractor or somthin heavy (Over 1000lbs) it rides like a Cadilac. I made my own rear leaf packs using 3/8 thick leaves from a 2 1/2 ton grain truck I retained the original top 2 leaves. I'm gonna be reengineering the rear springs shortly so I can dump the blocks and do a shackle flip so I can pull in the Street class with out hopping like a buckin horse with no trac bars. I'll be using 4 or 5 full length leaves and then taper down from there and then I'll clamp them.

I don't know if you have noticed Randy's (Schamran) but you might want to take a look at his too. Both guys did a great job on their flaps.
