SCS as a company do not wish to have paid mods on this forum. While we understand that not all paid mods use the Intellectual Property of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is and isn't acceptable when money is involved.

Fantastic mod. Attention to details is amazing.
I've a question tho, is there not 2 types of front fenders on this model? (the wheel arch thingy)

So this one is the one we have

This one is thiner.

I wish someone would do the same quality rework for the 2012 model. Or even make the newest one.

@jdwarfer the second truck is a Mk2 variant, there's more than just the wheelarches that differ

Jarrad is right technicaly. Although the FH3 also has that kind of thin wheel arch version too it's just rarer:

(And it's true the other way around too, as the FH2 also has the larger wheel arch type as well)

Wheel arches depend on which tires are fitted/ordered from factory.
Ifthe truck was ordered with wide 385 tire and ~11" rim, then you get flat/fat wheel arch, like the one in this mod.
If the truck is ordered with 315, 295 tire and 9" rim , then you get thin wheel arch.

^^ If you use external contract trailers, you are always limited, you can't change that.

Also thanks for the interesting info, guys.

@jdwarfer, what do you with a truck Simulator? You need a racing simulator.
