The truck in the background has a tilt frontend.


I do not have many details on it. What I do know is he sets the spacing on the hood/fenders the way he likes it and welds it up.
Where the fender meets the cab he has felt so it is not metal on metal.
I believe he splits the fenders so that the part that wraps under the cab is bolted on all the time.

Re: tilt front end

tilt front end, not tilt hood. tilt front end is hoodand fenders. not just the hood..
