Rock Crawler

Had a sudden urge this afternoon to make a Rock Crawler. So I did

Driven by an XL motor geared down 3:1, I used the axles from Sariel's Jeep Rubicon TT (http://sariel.pl/201...angler-rubicon/) and my own middle chassis structure bit. I will confess, I have absolutely no idea how to do the suspension, so I guessed , even so it performs really well as it is so I can't have done too much of a bad job

Any comments on how I could improve the suspension would be greatly appreciated, as I haven't got a clue

about the suspension i can't help you....i really don't know that much about live axle...you should ask doc_brown :P

Looks messy to be honest. Especially the bending of the rear axle...

Look up some ideas on brickshelf or even here...you are at risk of damaging parts here such as the shocks or the light bley axle in the rear...

Ok... I thought it really wasn't great... I'll look around and see what I can find
