Did you tried the MAN configurator or does the render it provides are too small anyway to be used as a decent blueprint ?

Anyway here's a link for a 8*8 35T config :

https://www.truck.man.eu/konfigurator/fr/fr/#/code/L96SSU31-4300FE-C3709-EQN

That's the old TGS in the configurator, not the 2021. What you've configurated is a 35t for construction vehicles like tippers or mixers, you can't compare the wrecker with a standard chassis.

There's no wrecker like the other and what you see in the render is a 41t. The problem is that you can only find pictures of the 2021, so it's designed by Efferman under help of a 1:87 model.

Looks really nice Effe, I'd like to have one of these on my shelf!

Can't wait to see the result with real bricks

Looks very impressive, but I'm an old-fashioned, so I prefer to see version build in bricks (& pieces :laugh:)

Did somebody say instructions? I’d love to build this. Any idea when they’ll be available?

I start in the next days with the instruction dismantling. Then ordering parts, test build, stress tests, finalizing the instruction.... i guess end of january maybe.

With that amount of work to do I’m guessing the emphasis is on maybe. Whenever they’re ready I’ll be doing my best to get to the head of the queue :sweet:

someone has asked for this. It is 138,8 Studs long and In real this would be 18,63m. The Trailer is only a quickshot, so the axles are totaly wrong.

Yep, cable laying really is a pain in the armpit in Stud.io

Btw.: From the blueprint it looks like the front axles have very limited ground clearance. Is this all the way accross the axle or just right beside the wheels?

Really great model, by the way :-)

it is going straight from hub to hub, but i guess it is still enough ground clearance for road use.
