    Thank you everyone for your positive comments. I've already started making plans for the truck to be modular in the sense that the back will be interchangeable from hook lift to tow truck and also dump truck. It now has suspension copied from Volvo. It will be in a new thread soon but this time I'm not going to power through it in 4 nights it will take a little longer this time.

    Simply an awesome truck. Seeing your trucks is what inspired me to build my first proper sized truck in technic lego ([TS6] concrete truck MK II). Going to have to buy your instructions since trucks are my weak spot. Again superb truck .

    Motorstorm is a great game and you did the truck justice. Looks like a model from the game.

    Better than legos volvo attempt. Awesome loader.

    Great tow truck. Clean lines and color coordinated wheels, should be a lego set. If my concrete truck brakes down Ill call you for a tow.

    23. Concrete Truck G'day everyone. Here is my entry for this [TS6] competition, a technic lego concrete truck. The discussion thread is here http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=105717. The truck can use either battery case inside the cab. Door steps swing open and close when the door is opened and shut. This model truck was loosely based on the Freightliner Argosy. Has twin steering and driven by both rear diffs to a fake V8 motor. Its functions are: L motor for drive. Servo motor for steering. L motor for rotation of drum. M motor for discharge chute raise and lower. The manual functions are: Cab tilt. Doors opening. Chute swing from side to side. Chute extensions.

    A small video of the truck. I used polystyrene balls for the load.

    I decided not to make it longer because of how many lego pieces are needed and the weight of the bowl, its the heaviest part of the truck. The bowl does work. D'oh the water tank, Oh well like the old twin stick Mack, Left side water and right side fuel.

    The truck is finaly finished. Now to test it then work out how to do a video...

    My progress so far is this. Its almost finished, just have to support the bowl, find a spot for the chutes and some rear mudguards. I can see why the Lego group havent done a concrete truck cause the bowls are a nightmare. The bowl Inside the bowl, Looks like something from a horror movie.

    Made a little more to the truck. Took Rishab N advice and added a larger motor. Started with a 4 cylinder, then 5 and then a v8. Took a bit to decide on what truck to loosely base it on and went for the Freightliner Argosy. The roof I think needs to be a stud or 2 higher not sure. the side step folds out and in when you open and close the doors. the blue pins under the battery case are for the 9v battery box so that it can accommodate either one. the side tanks hold one IR receiver each or the Sbrick (or two). This being my first attempt at a large scale truck its all new here.

    G'day everyone and thank you for your comments. I decided not to turn the motor for 2 reasons, 1 I just have enough room and for strength in the gearing and to avoid slipping for when the bowl is full. The difference is the MkI was a failed attempt scale wise it is a few pages back as a TS6 WP. I hope ill finish it on time, it will be close. Cheers.

    Concrete truck Mk II. After the first attempt where things were there were scaling issues I had another crack at it today. Ideas are to have 8 wheels so twin steer. Both drive axles and simple sturdy construction. The functions are: L motor for drive. Servo motor for steering. L motor for the mixing bowl. M motor for the chute. Manual functions will be opening doors, cab tilt and chute swing from side to side.

    This pic shows possible IR receivers or sbrick location. This shows the hendrickson bolster spring setup. The flexible rubber axle connector acts as the cushion for the travel. Bowl connected and suspension travel.

    The color green looks great. The plow is genius. Another amazing moc from you. :thumbup:
  25. jono rocky
    Great build on the truck, I like the green pickup truck on your page. :thumbup: Have made the hendricson bolster spring suspension with drive to both axles and completed the motor and drive on the a frame mount for the bowl, will have more pics soon.
