Where is the "Buy Now" button? Dump truck = required

I bought the instructions for and built MOC-8002 to pair with 42100, but now I want this instead!

Are there any other MOC's out there similar to this? I want to sort bricks like this, but doesn't need to be mobile.

Yes, independent front and rear with large amounts of suspension travel plus center articulation, I can't see many cases where the wheels wont be able to contact the ground, requiring locked diffs.

So turns out, if you use locked diffs, it basically doesn’t turn, I was thinking it would have reduced turning abilities, but it’s basically straight lines only. Fortunately I now have so much suspension travel, it will be unlikely to have opposite corners off the ground, so going back to open diffs should be ok

I guess most people are used to seeing car tires where the tread pattern goes with point of V facing forward, but this is for water dispersion, not maximum grip. Here is where mine is at, waiting on last parts to arrive.

Does anyone else’s steering center a bit to the left? I completed the efferman steering and fired it up, was a bit to the left, so went to maintenance and recalibrated, it moves and appears to test the limits, but then returns to off center

Thanks, that helped. I think I now have a solution to my problems. Its going to have a wider track, will be using 9L link arms. Motors will be standard layout. 9.5L shocks front and rear.

Cool, thx, I will wait...

I’ve been modding mine, loosely based on efferman’s, I am using the 9.5L shock absorbers, doing Aerlight’s locked diffs, longer swing arms. I've got the rear end done, working on the front end, but struggling with the steering, could you please show more details of your steering mods @efferman?
