Zerobricks Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 This is a truck i built few months ago. It features double XL motor drive, front 4 wheel steering, all wheel suspension and a large bed at back And video of truck going over a box: Quote
Conchas Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Hello zblj, my name is Fernando and run TechnicBRICKs blog. I've seen your truck beginning of June because it was featured in PLUG's forum by my co-blogger Alexandre. We have realized on the stickers with TBs url among others and became very proud! Since then it has been in my sort of post "queue" list... Even a few hours ago I thought about it, while running over the list I keep with the 'To post things' and decided for Eric's 850 kinematic animation for this week highlight. One of these weeks, it will find its way to the front page at the 'Week TechVideo' section, I promise! You have a very nice truck here and also enjoyed your snow speeder, running over real snow! PS: This was I meant. Quote
Milan Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 This TT really does deserve to be on one of the best technic blogs. Congratulations, Zblj! I think I watched every single video of it in action on youtube! Quote
Zerobricks Posted August 16, 2009 Author Posted August 16, 2009 Thank you Milan and Conchas. I know my models arent really 'pretty', but for me functionality has higher priority. Quote
gezuvor Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 Would love to build something like this here in the states. Do you have more details you could share? Quote
Burf2000 Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Nice build mate, how on earth did you get so many big wheels. Are they the ones from the power puller? Quote
Milan Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Nice build mate, how on earth did you get so many big wheels. Are they the ones from the power puller? He is big fan of TTs. I think he got 4 of them them from a friend, and he has 4 of them himself... Tires from Power Puller set has Technic Power pattern, the ones from 8466 are clean. Quote
Burf2000 Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Thanks mate, are there any size difference> Still very good model, I really like the bigger technic looking models Quote
Milan Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 No there are no difference between them, except pattern, diameter is the same, approx 10.4 cm Quote
Zerobricks Posted December 2, 2009 Author Posted December 2, 2009 Yeah getting the wheels was quite difficult. All the pictures i have are on BS, sorry dont have many more. Quote
morson1 Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 (edited) Very nice truck! Have a question about the rear wheels.. I´m about to build quite a heavy vehicle with the same wheels, but I can´t come up with a good idea how to fasten them in the chassi. I need a really strong fastening solution, are you willing to share how you have attached your rear wheels? The area I´m interested in is where the end of the wishbone mates with the rim. None of the wheels on my build need to be steerable. I have tried some different approaches but everything just bends under load.. Greatful for any help! Edited January 5, 2011 by morson1 Quote

Rear wheels were attached, as deep inside the rim as possible, to minimize axle bending Here's a picture: Quote
