On BrickTruckTrial, 88high/ Mr88high recently presented his Lego Technic Tatra 815 6x6 Trial Truck. He wrote:

"Hello TruckTrial fans out there! Here I present my biggest, baddest, and most powerful TrialTruck yet! It is a Tatra 815 6X6, which is based on my last Tatra 4X4 frame. In fact, it uses the exact same front axle-and-3speed gearbox module. Below, I will list the many fascinatiing features of it:

1) 6X6 drive

2) Realistic Tatra-style suspension

3) 3-speed transmission, with remote-shift via LA

* GEAR 1: Geared down 4X

* GEAR 2: Geared down 3X

* GEAR 3: Geared up once, then geared doen 2 more times.

4) WORKING winch (see my YouTube channel for the video)

5) Dummy working V8

6) Pneumaticly adjustable suspension (see my YouTube channel for the video)

7) Reinforced 3-gear steering rack

8) Hard shocks on all 6 axles, front one has extra rubberbands, rear 2 axles are long-travel.

9) Can go up a 50* slope

10) Drives really well in the snow (see my YouTube channel for the video)

11) reinforced cabine

12) dual side-mounted battery boxes

13) LED lights

14) MY VERY BEST TRIALTRUCK YET!

15) MY VERY 1st 6X6 YET!"

This

shows it "snow wheelin'" in Prescott, Arizona USA:

This

shows "...how the Pneumatic raising/lowering works:

-Switch 1 & 2 both "in" = suspension free of all pneumatic air pressure. Suspension can move freely over bumps.

-Switch 2 "out", Switch 1 "out" = raise suspension and compress shocks. The suspension can't compress.

-Switch "out" , Switch 1 "in" = suspention hardened at full droop. The suspension can't compress."

of the powerful winch -- "It is powered by 1x PF M-Motor, believe it or not. It uses a worm-gear-driveline system, especially developed by me. As you can see, it has tons of power to pull the truck." Edited November 13, 2011 by DLuders
