Most guys use dcp dollys. These days dcp dollys are getting harder and harder to find. When you do find them they are getting pricey. There are kits out there that you can snap out of plastic and put together. I have used the kits and they are super easy and look good when you get them done. Here is one on my Pete grain truck. As for a hitch I just bent a piece of wire to hold the dolly.  They come in single and dual axle models.   |

I use a special Testors stryene glue but you can also use super glue. In fact I used some super glue on my dolly.

Here is the place I got the pics from. Jaydeez scale models. Lately I have heard that it take them forever to answer emails and such but I dont know. The tandem costs 10.00 and the single is around 8.00. jaydeez.com/I got mine from the guy who runs badlands custom trucks. www.badlandscustomtrucks.com/contactHis name is Rick and he is a great guy. You have to email him and ask him for a single axle or tandem axle and he can hook you up. He sells the single axle dolly for 7 big ones. Hope this helps |

I use Moore's. I think $12 unpainted (at least when I bought them a year ago). Need to buy an axle or get a donor too. Assembly is simple. I've not used DCP but from what I saw at a toy show today, I prefer Moores.
