Hello, I'm Fabio from Italy. Is my first message. After over 35 years (!!) I have bought one month ago a Technic set, the Unimog 8110 (original box closed of 2011). Now I have discovered this interesting forum. Excuse me for my bad english and if some things that I will say may appear trivial (this discussion is active since 6 years). My MOG is stock, I have only perform some little modifications, like the smart system to open the cabin, or the tilt of the caisson (only rear side at the moment). I have increase the height of the MOG of 1 stud, working on the lower attachment of the suspensions, and increase the steering angle removing the 4 pins, and finally replacing the pins with friction with axle as suggested in the discussion. About the front suspension, nobody has noted the disalignment of the front axle respect the chassis (it seem to be an error of LEGO!!)? I have solved it changing the double hole piece that fix the bar, with a single hole piece. Now I'm eager to do other modifications (trilateral tilt caisson, pneumatic opening of cabin, crane moved on the rear of the cabin, pneumatic stabilizers, rc command, motorization of steering and movement, etc.) My problem is that I have only this set of modern Technic.. I have my old Technic sets (851, 856, 8859, etc.) but the pieces are not suitable for these modifications! Then I need to buy another set or spare technic bricks if I want to perform the modifications!
