Hmm; could you have added a diff and two mini linear actuators for the tipping of the bed?

[Rishab N]

Dual rear wheels and I think you changed the bucket a bit

[efferman]

You are both right

[M_longer]

Move lights to bumper, where they should be. And put on their place round bricks as air filters.

You widened the dumper bed, you also added a second 5x11 panel. Differential added, double rear wheels....i guess you use a longer axle to accomodate thw dual rear wheels?

You added some flat tiles, added rear lights and changed up the front light arrangement....overall this is a darn good job!

+ mini LA!

[efferman]

No, the 5,5 axles are in the set too.

[efferman]

small update on the front

[Richard Dower]

how about adding yellow flat tiles to the sides of the dumper bed?....you have already added them to the front....i think it will look really good. maybe use i 1x6 + 1x3 yellow flat tiles. also add 2 yellow 1/2 bushes to the DBG axles on the wheels.

A square cabin would be better IMO, I built one like this in 2014 and Lego did it and the same with the F40 .

If I had this set first modifications will be disassemling that models, is great function but one cylinder for this type of vehicle is not realistic.
