Right on!!! @nicjasno.. Thank you very much!!! I'll build it asap!!! You are the oh mighty one!!!

I appreciate your time @nicjasno and your advice is much needed on this website!! thank you for your evaluation of my MOC.. do you have a solution for the steering pivot to be closer on any 11 wide or smaller length for the front suspension and steering with drive?? the negative castor I can fix !!! Can it be done?? I'll have to do my own homework!! Great videos on youtube by @nicjasnoon all types of suspension solutions!! https://www.youtube.com/user/nicjasno/videos

I own this Lego set 62022 that haves a small ramp loader for the Lego city Airport and it haves a slot for an axle to slide through ... You should check it out!!

I have a question about Ackerman steering and chassis design ... Is this an example of a Ackerman steering with the chassis design where the pivot points angled to the center of the rear differential?? I believe is so... can anyone correct me!! adding or removing the yellow bushings can adjust the steering length ..

Even though I don't own this set, just by looking at it.. A 12 tooth gear would fit !!!

Funny!! but ain't he a like half man/robot ?? very original!!!

I've noticed on your differentials, it's dual gear!!! Is that for the PTO and do you have and example of a PTO?? Looks great my friend !!

Just wanted to share some more ideas for Lego technic 8081 mods.... check them out Cool model but It looks like a mad pug!!! Friends forever! <3 <3

Just organizing Flickr and found some older pictures of the various shuttles I have done.. Most are just WIp when its was a work in progress .. You never know you might end up building your own space shuttle.. Here are some ideas!! v

Wow, a technic wonder!!! Good choice of color on your chassis!! Great job!!!

I had for a year and It was abused in every technic way.. I got myself a few Lego Powered up motors to go with my 2 port hub.. I know you can program the m motors to act like a servo.. Im learning on using the software right now .

Good point about using a servo ... if you turn it any more then 45 degree you will pop out the cv joint.. I'll use a m mtor any way.. my servo has expired !! :(

Here is a steering solution for my 13 wide !! https://youtu.be/6qz6UwqjyQk Why is my link not show a picture on this thread ??

Hey , its Zero thread and so it is his rules..Guys be nice to him!!! I felt bad for screwing up his thread last week.. !!

Update on Lego 8081 advanced front independent suspension Here is a quick update on my advance Lego 8081 front suspension (by sirslayer) with steering installed with no toes issues at all!!! (your welcome , folks ), the steering have a good turning radius , a soft style suspension and I was able to engineer a drive shaft into the suspension frame to take the Lego 8081 to the next century!!! Using Lego's original blueprints , I was able to install the single spring(shocks) on top and use current 21st century Lego technology. I was able to use wheel hub and a similar steering connection from the 42093 corvette to give the Lego 8081 a fighting chance against the current contender (Land rover Defender) Its a easy upgrade to any ones 8081 and plus its able to be powered with and Legos RC offerings .. A short video to show the suspensions excellent performance .. and you can pass the trophy to me after watching the video.. :)

Am I the first person to post this??? If i'm wrong I will remove this post... 13 wide independent suspension with driveshaft with steering available Head full of ideas!!

Ok, I didn't know on the original Lego set 8081 had a smaller wishbone setup... well i went ahead and still used the newer wishbone and reduced the length from 17 wide down to 13L wide!!! I hope this is allowable and its also driven by the drive shaft..You know your in a good mood when you have many ideas that keeps on floating in your head.... you can't be creative when your in a bad mood!!!!!!! check out the video!!

It was an experience that I'll always remember!!! I gained a lot of technic experience, got a lot Legos from my family and the speed metal band , Megadeth redone the music on my TC16 video!!! .. thank you to all and congratulation to the winners!!

@BrickWild its a fake mini engine!! the pistons are not even connected when the model is on its side or upside down :)

I hear clicking when he was showing the differential on the video!!!

You can always download the Lego 42099 instructions and study the front suspension on that set!!

lol @kbalage... thanks for the idea !!!!!!

my chassis minus the tires and rims is 17 wide!!!! Is that good or should I start on version 4??

I went ahead and did a version 3 of the Lego 8081 mod and this version of my mod is more compliant to the rules and features the following AWD with center diff.. 4 wheel steering Classic red and black color look Front independent suspension Live rear axles Red color rims Fake engine from lego set 42029 HOG Steering on dashboard Lego Technic 8081 mod by victormendoza_jr, on Flickr Lego Technic 8081 mod by victormendoza_jr, on Flickr Lego Technic 8081 mod by victormendoza_jr, on Flickr Lego Technic 8081 mod by victormendoza_jr, on Flickr

Well the contest is over and not only I had fun , I also gained a lot of experience and I feel I can built any plane/space ships.. I will always provide updates even after the contest since I really like my MOC.. I've started on the cockpit and its not so easy!! WIP at the moment and can't wait for more parts .. I 've installed the air lock and the placement of the glass (plastic) windshield .. check out the pictures !!
