Kronos Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Does any one have the alternate instructions for the 8297? I just got this set and want the B model instructions. Also, has anyone made this model 4WD? If so, I'd be interested to see how they did it. I have a few ideas, but would like to see how other's have done it. I don't plan to motorize it, I just want to take out the adjustable suspension and made it true 4WD. Thanks - Mike Edited February 5, 2012 by camaro365 Quote

Sato Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Seems like your missing book 3 and 4? Here you can find the full set of instructions on Lego's site. Quote
DLuders Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 MacGyvarek has this Lego Technic 8297 Off Roader II set with Power Functions elements for 2WD; I don't know of any Building Instructions to make it 4WD. His Brickshelf Gallery http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=358965 has a set of photos & LDD renders, plus a Parts List: Here is the Parts List for MacGyvarek's version of the motorized 8297 set. The part numbers are from Bricklink ("The Unofficial Lego Marketplace"). The "Pimped 8297" version has a Parts List for each assembly at the end of the 102-page PDF Building Instructions that you can download. MacGyvarek's version needs these parts (listed in the order that they appear on the Brickshelf parts image pictured below): 2 ea. 4459 "Technic, Pin with Friction Ridges Lengthwise" 1 ea. 3749 "Technic, Axle Pin without Friction Ridges Lengthwise" 1 ea. 6538b "Technic, Axle Connector (Ridged with x hole x orientation)" [NOTE: 6538 or 6538a will work too] 3 ea. 3647 "Technic, Gear 8 Tooth" 1 ea. 32270 "Technic, Gear 12 Tooth Double Bevel" 1 ea. 32269 "Technic, Gear 20 Tooth Double Bevel" 1 ea. 60c01 "Technic, Gear 24 Tooth Clutch" 1 ea. 4519 "Technic, Axle 3" 3 ea. 3705 "Technic, Axle 4" 2 ea. 32073 "Technic, Axle 5" 1 ea. 3706 "Technic, Axle 6" 2 ea. 44294 "Technic, Axle 7" 5 ea. 32184 "Technic, Axle and Pin Connector Perpendicular 3L with Center Pin Hole" 1 ea. 48989 "Technic, Pin Connector Perpendicular 3L with 4 Pins" 1 ea. 40490 "Technic, Liftarm 1 x 9 Thick" 1 ea. 32524 "Technic, Liftarm 1 x 7 Thick" 1 ea. 32316 "Technic, Liftarm 1 x 5 Thick" 2 ea. 3701 "Technic, Brick 1 x 4 with Holes" 8 ea. 41677 "Technic, Liftarm 1 x 2 Thin" 1 ea. 8882 "Power Functions XL-Motor" [NOTE: Bricklink lists this as Part 58121c01 also] 1 ea. 8883 "Power Functions M-Motor" [NOTE: Bricklink lists this as Part 58120c01 also] 1 ea. 8885 "Power Functions IR Remote Control" [NOTE: Bricklink lists this as Part 58122c01 also] 2 ea. 8884 "Power Functions IR Receiver" [NOTE: Bricklink lists this as Part 58123c01 also] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * There is also the "Pimped" 8297 (scroll 1/2 way down the list on http://www.bouwvoorbeelden.nl/home_eng.htm to find it). Dutchman "bouwvoorbeelden" wrote, "Yes, you will recognise this model as the Lego Technic 8297 Off Road car. But this is not a normal 8297. It is thoroughly PIMPED! This car has: - a complete new roof with Spoiler, Air Inlets, Antennas and Six Rally Lights - Widened windscreen - Protective Side Bars and extra Bull Bar at the front - Exhaust pipes - A turning steering wheel in a restyled dashboard - Metallic look with Black details instead of grey - Transparent motor block - Two Infrared Sensors in the roof - Two extra motors for remote driving & steering" It has an MLCAD file, a movie, PDF Building Guide, and a Parts List.

Kronos Posted February 6, 2012 Author Posted February 6, 2012 WOW! Thanks to everyone for the responses. I appreciate it greatly. I was watching the Super Bowl so I didn't get back to this until late. Now it's time for bed! (work-3am) I think the "pimped" version is in my futer. I'll keep you posted. Quote
