    Are you building with Lego? To answer the question, as you rotate the suspension arms up and down, it follows a circle where the center is your rotation point. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/71/5link-rear1-small.gif A brief example. Look carefully and you can see the wheel move in and out slightly. EDIT: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension This wikipedia page has some great gifs demonstrating this effect. There's no way around the problem of the wheels moving in and out UNLESS you raise and lower the whole axle assembly, including the wishbone mounting points.

    I'm working on a JGTC car. I don't think anyone will be able to guess which.

    No problem, glad I could help!

    It seems like there's another 12-tooth above the 36-tooth one. Does that fill the gap? Edit: Add the red gear. That should work.

    @Jim Can you edit the reply to remove the email?

    I'm currently working on an 8x8. Everything is virtual for now, but I'll test-build it tomorrow. My worry is the rear axles: are they going to be strong enough against torsion? https://mecabricks.com/en/models/PkaJV9qxaxM

    I would put a diff between the front and rear axles, but otherwise it'd be permalocked between wheels

    I was about to say the same. Lego once did this with one of their F1 cars too, and the results were many broken connectors. I think they were even yellow too.

    In a real car, it feels a lot more natural to shift up (1->2) by pulling than to push. Vice-versa for slowing down and downshifting.

    I would really like to see a video (even a short one) on that Defender.

    I would really like to see the results. Could you send a link to a video (in PM) once you receive it?

    Wow, this is AWESOME! I would really like to have one at home, so thank you for the instructions!

    A few months ago, I was messing around with the pull-back motors after disassembling the Trophy Truck. After some quick tinkering, I came up with this: I'm sorry the picture isn't better, but it's the only one I've got. BUT I do have two videos. In this first one, the acceleration is properly demonstrated. The second one shows how it needs all of its grip to not spin out. In the second one, we can see just how easy it is to spin out.

    I don't know how I missed this. It's amazing! Very well done!

    After looking at the available material, I have decided that I'm going to buy the Car Transporter.

    I'm in the mood for some sweets, how can I organize shipping?

    Just scroll up ONE. COMMENT. The links are right there.

    Yes, unfortunately it dropped through. I think a contest of this style would be too drawn-out to do for each individual component.
  19. letsbuild
    I really like this idea, can't wait for the contest!
  20. letsbuild
    Definitely. 2, maybe 3 are required for such weights.
  21. letsbuild
    The design here is stunning. Very well done, very recognizable.
  22. letsbuild
    Holy moly, I really like your building style. This is just stunning.
  23. letsbuild
    I really like the concept. I have seen your other models, and it's super neat. Keep up the compact building!
  24. letsbuild
    There are many online sources for 3D modes, such as Yeggi, where you can find models for free.

    Welcome! Are you looking for instructions for the big MOC, or the small one? If you're looking for the big one, it's actually a set: 42056
