I repainted the dump bed on my CT660 to black, and added the Shaw Bro's decals. I am not 100% finished yet, I still have to add a functioning tarp that goes over the dump bed. Do you guys like the look of it not having the third axle?

Looks way better with the axle gone. Was no need of them putting it on in the first place. (My opinion)

Coffee, diesel fumes, and a little dust. No better way to start your day!!!

I love the look of the tag axles. No they aren't required everywhere, but I've always liked them
