    I threw the bike in there as it kind of completes the package.
    Even more awesome.
    The front tires have a great fit, Are you running the stock suspension?

    The suspension is bone stock except for the shocks.

    Smile Windows coming this week

    I finally ordered my windows for the 'box'
    I went with Kinro 18" X 30" crank outs, as the trailing edge of the cab windows are roughly 18" in height.
    I will post pics of the install in a week or so. Should be fun.

    Are these split windows or does the whole pane crank out? Do you have a part number?

    The windows open horizontally the lower 50%
    Light tint with screens. Should do the trick.
    I will post part #'s when I get them.

    Very cool truck, thanks for sharing! You wouldn't by any chance have recently had your old dually wheel/tire combo on craigslist would you? Think I recognize that truck from the NOVA CL.

    Will definitely be keeping an eye on this thread, I'll never look at a chem-lawn truck the same again!

    Those were in fact my wheels that you saw, and I still have them if you know anyone who is looking.
    I guess that there is not a big market for used FG wheels with BFG's mounted on them.
    They are listed on Ebay as well.

    Here are a few pics of my Fuso FG now that the windows are in.
    I actually washed the truck yesterday, hence the fact that the truck is pictured here, today, dirty and in the rain.
    The windows are made by Kinro, and are actually nicer that I thought I had bought. The bottom 2/3 cranks out, and they have screens as well.
    I was not sure of the final wall thickness that I would settle on, so I ordered them with 2" trim rings, and made temporary oak surrounds to make up the difference for now.
    Overall, it turned out quite well, I think. Next step is a graphics wrap, and then the interior.

    Great, they're just what I need for over the rear wheels on our Volvo Tgb111C. Do you have a part number and dimensions, please?

    Looks really good!

    Even though the windows are new, I was unable to locate the serial numbers before I installed them. They were supposed to be on a paper decal located within the wall contact exposure.
    As such, I contacted both Kinro and the online dealer, and I am currently waiting on both for a response.
    I do know that the windows are part of Kinro's "2000 SV" series, if that helps (?)
    I will post more information as soon as I receive it.
