Thanks for checking it out. It's funny how my tastes have changed over the years, there was a time when I wouldn't have given the medium duty trucks a second look, now I'm obsessed with them. (I still love my 10's, 20's and 30's too!)

Might have a friend ride the parking brake in the GMC. Also good to know about the body change, Ill have to look into that. Sorry for hyjacking your thread.
Fortunately that is very close, just keep in mind that since the towed vehicle has 4 wheels and more weight it may have a mind of it's own. However, I'd be lying if i said I haven't done stuff just as sketchy if not worse. OK, I've done a lot worse and walked away, but I'm really lucky.

No hijack perceived, I'm glad to have a good dialog going. Can't wait to see your build thread once you get things going.
