With the help of efferman I built a new chassis, which is 1 stud lower and has a 2 speed gearbox.

Wow, that's the winner for me!

Hmm, i dont agree Same style but not the same vehicle. Every builder has his own style and it seems to be logical that the cars look similiar

@I_Igor For sure @aminnich I need to stop now, or i wont be able to catch up with my real bricks . Would have been a good idea though, but we do not have snow @Aventador2004 Thanks man! @Johnny1360 I just googled it, yes they look very similar. No Problem, use as much ideas as you want! Im happy when i can inspire people

Thanks guys! @Guzzisti I believe you, the back axle was a challenge for me aswell... I built a Camper for it:

Nice Project! But don‘t you think you should use smaller wheels?

@Corrado Thanks! @aminnich Thanks, aminnich So the Panel-Version would be finished as well: The Battbox is camouflaged as a Generator: The back lights were a pain in the a**. I dont think it would be possible without that stud stucking out... Well it would have been possible, if i had made a static back "door"

The back is more or less done: The crane is connected with the Chassis at 4 places Still to do: Stopper mechanism of the winch

Hey @Beck I already tested it in RL. It works even suspended. Here is a digital example: Left: Normal Position Right: Suspended Position

Yes, sure. I already ordered parts for the cab!

Hello guys, first of all, sorry for the late replie @Aleh I do not think, that the bonnet will be openable, cause it works as a stabilizing part, and the 5x7 Frame which you can see on the front axle is directly underneath... Meantime the marriage took place! Cab, Chassis and back part are attached to each other. Also I decided to make two back part versions. The first one is going to be a tow truck. And the second would be the fleetside. And maybe (if I have the time and the Money ) a stepside. So here are some Pictures: P.S: this time I used Pov-Ray for Rendering. Which do you like more, bluerender (previous renders) or Pov-Ray? Here you can see the mounting Points for the tow truck crane. It can be connected with the Chassis for better stabilization Hope you like the Progress!

Realy good moc and presantation! May i ask which program you used for the mechanics?

Nice Vid! Btw. Merry Christmas everyone

@HDGamer2424 Thanks Julian @Isak Thank you very much! Guys, I have good news, I just ordered all parts for the cab, so this will be built for sure

Thank you very much @Aleh I believe that this is the final cab:

Ye, I'll go for it. Thanks for Advice! Thanks Josh That's a great idea! It's definetively worth the try!

Thanks @aminnich I have a question, as you guys can see, i didn't use any glass in the front part. But i could at the back...

Enough for today

Agree.. But I can ignore that cause of all those functions

Thanks Igor, actually it was pretty hard to build. As you can see their are many different horizontal and vertical sections in the bonnet.

Thanks @aminnich Good to see, that you are still following this Topic Btw., how do you like the new Color scheme?

Thanks Josh, here's the side view:

That would be a great Feature! But there are more than enough of the 62,4 tires i believe As the Chassis is finished now, I started to redo the cab. With some more Details and a complete new bonnet. Also 20 wide instead of 19. This was my inspiring model: https://pixabay.com/de/chevy-pickup-truck-chevrolet-lkw-1341587/ As always critism and comments appreciated!

@I_Igor Thank you very much! As for scale: I don‘t have a most used scale. I make a few ldd sketches in different scales. And i pick the one, which is feasible in the smallest scale. And this time I picked the 62,4 tires. But for someone, who has much vehicles and wants to see them togheter, i would recommend to build in the same scale.

Hey @Isak The whole chassis is very stable. If i press it down in the middle, front and back springs move togheter without bending of the chassis Steering shaft will be replaced with gears. It‘s to wobbley
