I forgot to wrote here that video is dark on purpose, I don't want to show it fully until the crane is completed. Final video will be in HD res.

Ryan, no, but I have 3 same super-strong axles, made of two layers of beams, you have a picture few posts above.

Maybe you should posta picture of in, so people can advice.

On THIS truck I had the same problem, I have used 8466 suspension on it and it solved the issue with bending.

Found some older photos of new chassis, probably my best frame yet, regarding realistic scale, and the fact that there is not a single stud in length that empty. Everything is packed with modules.

Tan pins are center point of 3 axles, above them is shock absorbers mounting points, vertical beams-and-bricks combo are actual axle support-holders.

Those holders are connected to axle's turntables, which are taking off pressure from drive cross axle, so it can spin freely.

Most front and back parts, with black pins are holding the outriggers modules, with 8 pins per outrigger.

Empty section between first and second axle is drivetrain module, packed with gears and pulleys, drive will be via 2 or 4 red rubber belts.

Above all that stand another layer of Technic bricks, so the chassis has total of 3 vertical layers of Technic bricks, which makes it very strong and prone to twist when supported on outriggers.

Next will post picture of frame with axles, motors, drivetrain, CODE Pilot and outriggers.
