Torsion bar suspension :)

A refresh works as the URL is updated after clicking to advance between pages. However, the modal (or semi-opaque layer) does not disappear, nor is new content being visibly loaded.

Yep, Lego string it is (42009 re-use),

Thanks! Just finished the MOC with only one change: replaced the hook with the large metal hook. Neat model with great instructions! Larger version on Bricksafe Larger version on Bricksafe

Exactly Andy, that is why a downloadable PDF would be great! The quality of the instructions is perfect, I just can't rely on an always on connection.

Pity you can't download the instructions from the site after purchase - only viewing in a browser (always online) is supported. Started to build thic MOC today, only managed to do the first 8 pages. Quality is good :)

Thank you for the instructions, just bought them!

Status update end of November. I made some minor changes to Jurgen's original creation: 2 M motors in the upper carriage for the boom extension and fork adjustment, large battery box in the carriage, added a small indicator (2 thin red lift arms in the picture below) to indicate the steering mode (picture shows PF switch in center position), instead of 4 IR receivers I'm using 2 sbricks. Most of the changes are because I would like to keep Kevin Moo's Forklift MKII and D3K's Swingloader MK2 intact. These both use the small battery boxes (of which I have only 2) and additional L motors. Click here for a larger version.

The picture looks great, and the quality of the mold (and result) ia superb! Can't wait for my kickstarter purchase to arrive! The Buwizz unit will be great on Jurgen's telehandler and Kevin Moo's Forklift MKII. If we would just know what this other port will do or enable in the near future...

It looks great in the red & grey combo! Perhaps the original set should have feature these colors, as I'm not a real fan of the neon-green.

Don't want to bump the thread for just myself. I would be willing to pay a (small) fee for the building instructions for this MOC, maybe some other enthusiasts are interested too?

Are there sbricks profiles available for this MOC? I'm currently building a black-yellow version and I expect to complete the build by the end of next week, to allow another bricklink order to arrive :). Thanks.

Can you list the Lego part numbers please? These covers are neat! Updated the original image with the descriptions of the items.

Excellent! More than Lego Model team worthy, slightly expensive due to the chromed parts though :)

Sheepo: would you consider packaging the two instruction sets into one?

Got it, thanks for the link :)

I'll gladly get my 42009 back together again (ultimate sbrick version that is) to compare it with this model C!

Nice energizing drink!

Very nice review of this set! I'm a happy owner too. The counterweight seems to be incorrectly placed (1 stud), correct?

Finished the MOC this week after I received a few missing parts. This model could or should have been released by Lego itself because of the excellent photo instructions, build quality and sturdiness. More photos of this MOC available in my bricksafe folder, some feature Jurgen's Backhoe V2 too :).

I've started with this model too. As I do not own that many pieces in red I have to revert to yellow. Last weekend I got approximately halfway through the excellent build instructions and decide to take a picture. Now I have to source some black panels first before I can continue. Great build so far, relatively dense model. The outer two L motors were swapped for M variants for steering and tilting, else I had to tear down Jurgen's Backhoe V2. I hope these have enough torque.

Designer Han offers these instructions on his webpages. Google can help :)

Great pics of this amazing crane!

The price today is 180 Euros (http://www.valuebrick.at/lego-themen/lego-technic/LEGO-Technic-42030-VOLVO-L350F-Radlader.html), not 80 :(

Looks good Dave, did you change any of the gears too?
