Jurss' Workshop

[Jurss]

Some time has gone, some 2 ufinished contest entries and also some MOCs 

Small beach buggy is waiting for inspiration. But I started something new, as there could now all needed parts to make it nice.

Tried new shaft, but for 15L wide 3L shaft is needed

Some thinking about front axle, this is some 3rd iteration

Now on wheels allready

Some of engine interations, which could stay

Adding side skirt

If you want classic dune / beach buggy rear suspension (based on Beatle) it has rear trailing arms with only one universal joint near differential; similar to 8860 set rear suspension)...but honestly I don't know how to make it without falling apart...I know how to suspension for some tractors or trucks, but maybee @Zerobricks has some ideas. Usually he comes up with interesting suspension ideas...

I tried to recreate it in this, but it is just something similar

Most probably, not in that small scale, initially went simpliest way.

Maybe the new short 3L suspension arms will help?

Nice start! I feel like a 911 on this chassis would be cool (proportions, flat 6, low profile tires..)

Also if you like sacrificing a bit of chassis stiffness you could add front suspension quite easily I think (if that's something you like having on a model :))

Was planning for front, almost unusable with these rims.

This is 911, beach buggy is somewhere up
