scifunk Posted October 15, 2018 Sorry about the earlier post if you viewed I couldn't add pics for some reason. Anyway, here I present Tundra a 4x4 monster truck with front and rear steering. Power is from 4 XL motors driving a wheel each. I've been working on it on and off for months so be kind ha ha. The hardest parts have been to get hubs that dont rip themselves apart, and I had to go down the non-Lego route for universal joints as they fell apart at the slightest bit of torque. The tyres are also non-Lego so I do apologise to the purists. I hope to get a video up soon of this beast in action. Just need to find some where suitable to give her a good work out.

I had built Fox 8x8x8 long time ago, which has x8 XL motors driving each wheel through UV joint. And I didn't have any of the broken UV joints despite having much wider tires with more grip than 3rd party ones have. Used and abused it a lot with no broken parts.
