CrispyBassist Posted October 26, 2015 Typically trains are my thing, but those take a while so in between I like to build city vehicles. This one's been on the shelf for a while and it's finally reached an iteration that I'm happy with. The truck is the cab from 4203 modded a la 4434 into a roll off dumpster truck. I wanted to utilze the hook lift arm piece from 4564 and 6353, so I built a hooklift trailer to go with.

Withacee Posted October 26, 2015 Now there's a nice truck. Love the trailer and the "roll off" mechanism. Keep clicking those bricks together! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nickless Posted October 26, 2015 The model looks good. I was surprised to find out that trailers like that actually exist, I was just about to tell you that typically trailers for hook-lift trucks don't have their own hook mechanism. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chumley Posted October 26, 2015 i like the look of the roll off dumpster, nice use of the lift arm hook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ER0L Posted October 26, 2015 Though I prefer larger trucks this is done very well, I really love its playability. Must admit that I didn't know that nice hook part on the trailer. By using a Technic mini actuator you might get the hydraulic cylinder working, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eurotrash Posted October 26, 2015 It looks really good! And it works. I like it a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrispyBassist Posted October 26, 2015 Thanks for all the likes guys! I was surprised to find out that trailers like that actually exist I was pleasantly surprised too! I've got two of those arms and really wanted to put them to use somewhere. The hooklift truck was one iteration of this MOC that I didn't quite like though. By using a Technic mini actuator you might get the hydraulic cylinder working, too. Not a bad idea... I dunno where I could hide all the other Technic bits for it though. I do have one of the small pneumatic cylinders at home... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
