[WIP] hell-ish antics or building dreams

[syclone]

I got bored so I modified parts to build as my lazy a$$ wants to.
First version (development November 2019-january 2020)
Uses springs from TLG shocks, very high. Only mod part is the cut 6L link to make two 1L axle+ towball hook parts. 14 studs wide. steering rack very high, otherwisee no issues. LDD file for chasssis (only axles work irl) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/LXF/darosuqtsport/darosu_qt_sport_4x4.lxf

2nd (current) version:

I was hoping to make it fully from OG parts, but bottom "wishbone" is needed otherwise wheels have negative camber and eventually flop to the side. This time rubber thingys are used instead of springs, giving it excellent height clearance (under the chassis it is 1 stud or a bit less where differential gear pops down) 15 studs wide, but I'm working on 14 studs now, as the steering needs to be different. Currently the light bley towballs can popout during suspension work, so I might glue them into the perpendicular connector.

Final plan is to have a 14 studs wide RC AWD car, probably something similar to a Daihatsu Mira or Suzuki Wagon R kei cars. If I somehow get my hands on Effermann's 2L wide diff it'll probably be even more compact and have better interior.
