[MOC] Lego Jeep Cherokee

[filsawgood]

Hi all!
My new model - is realisation in Lego - off-road custom based on the legendary american SUV - Jeep Cherokee (XJ). Everything according to the canons - axles, a rear differential lock, winch, snorkel, fenders, footrests, thick-walled pipe bumpers, an expeditionary trunk, chandelier and big wheels.

This looks great. You’ve really nailed the looks I think. 
I liked seeing the diff locks engage too.

Although I'm not a big fan of the real car (the idea of a Jeep SUV itself), I like the build, it captures the shape well. Good to see a model at this medium scale, and that you incorporated planetary hubs into it. I like the diff locking, and the front axle build also seems interesting. Is the steering motor sitting on the axle itself?

Yes, I adhere to the pressed mass to be minimal. One way of this is the placement of electric motors on axles. I will not say that I am satisfied with the model, but thanks anyway, I'm glad that she would be a little like
