AutoBacon Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 Greetings, I was tinkering with compact suspensions as I do occasionally, and came upon this; a (9 wide?) concept for a suspended, driven steering system. It's a sort of trailing arm type I guess, and has a floating 'diff' to allow each arm to oscillate independently. I didn't spend very long and this is as far as I've got, it doesn't have room for the driving gears at the moment. As with most technic solutions, if you stare at something long enough, it can usually be made to work :D Thought I could throw it out to you guys to see if anyone can improve upon it. Could be good for some kind fast of 4x4 buggy, the arms and hub interface are quite stiff laterally because of the dual ball pins and turntables. I thought some pushrod spring setup could be cool too. Quote
LegoTT Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 I like this, what is the piece used as wheelhub ? I guess you can put gears if you attach the back of turntable a stud higher (but it will be less stiff) and use T-shape liftarm on the front. https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=60484&name=Technic, Liftarm, Modified T-Shape Thick 3 x 3&category=[Technic, Liftarm]#T=P Quote
