Thanks. I think the tractor looks little better with the sleeper on it. I'm working on this one and another one with a smaller sleeper on it. Got some other ideas to do to them. Have some mudflaps, thinking some quarter fender on the drop axle.

Looks great! What sleeper is that? I like that one the best. I just modified the 5th wheel in my T880 to fit the Sword/Drake trailers King pin.

Those sleepers look pretty good. I have a couple ASAM sleepers from T800s you might be interested in

I think DHS sells an add on sleeper that would look great on them as well... They look great regardless!

Thanks guys for the nice comments. I'm one that usually just keeps my things stock but had a little bit of an itch to try my hand at this. Found the t880s on eBay and the sleepers off someone else. I'll keep you posted. I still have to make a base for the red sleeper. But thinking of putting an east dump bed on the 3rd one of If I can't find another sleeper for the second red tractor.

They were red plain red. Bought them off eBay. Guy only needed lowboys no tractors. So I got a few headache racks coming not sure they will work with the drop axle and sleeper but well see.
