    I must admit so far the best what I have seen in this content. Very impressive rotors control ...and is real beauty Now the only thing that (eventually) can change my ranking is P-38

    Thanks. In reality all tractors have thin / narrow chassis to enable smallest possible turning circle. Final chassis will have significant changes, because with battery box placed underneath chassis is bending; specially where suspension arms are connected to chassis. Yesterday I had a chance to see real Fastrac 4000 series and have noticed that real thing has 3 longitudinal suspension arms per axle, so today I had to change this also. Good news is that suspension with 3 longitudinal arms allows me to make much much stiffer chassis, so after week of running in circle I have few hours ago made properly stiff front part of chassis. After short brake I'll continue to work on chassis for a next few hours. Thanks once again, this was my primary goal to make it narrow. Looking forward to see your Case tractor. If you need idea on how to use frames, feel free and look on previous pages in this thread for Unimog chassis. Regards

    It looks more smooth than original. Really good mod for this size

    The key is to use frames 5 X 7 and 5 X 11 as much as possible and use bent liftarms for connection of several sections to make it sturdy and st the same time you have various axle holes in all directions through frames

    I know what you mean; I have bought 100 of them for few EUR and use broken to test particular solution (angle, distance...) and when I'm absolutely sure that solution is good then I use new ones... Rubber band usually is in the way in my case, so it is no help but nove from you @Doug72 for suggestion

    Let's say that I have some experience with that kind of suspension as you can see here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=365696 Only you have to enlarge images, it could be visible...I have Eleanor somewhere stored (if axles are not taken apart since it have been more than 10 years ago) so when I find it I could take some photos of front suspension... Problem is only that it uses this shocks

    Who knows, maybe I'll try to make it after I finish project which causes me stiffness issues Regards

    It is nice that you find time to continue to work on your project. Interesting combination with technic bricks

    Just one additional question; did you consider to make modifications (in future) to front axle to look like original? Kind regards

    At least instructions are online https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/buildinginstructions/search#?search&text=42093%20Chevrolet%20Corvette%20ZR1%20Technic

    @Seasider with rear bigger 49.5 tires it could look like this: @efferman front looks much smoother now. When this set will be available here in Croatia you all will make all those wonderful modifications that I will be left nothing but to implement them

    I think you should put thinner front wheels from Corvette on hot rod. Looking forward to see it with v6 Perhaps it would be better to start new topic 42093 improvements and mods? ?

    I'm happy that you chose studless build. Frames are blessing for us Mocers and specially for tractors that have very narrow chassis to enable small turning circle. Nice that you found time to develop you MOC

    It looks like you have very stiff solution with double pin connector with rear shocks.
  15. 1gor
    It looks like reincarnated one of your older mocs from studfull era With all this mocs around this days it is pleasant change

    Gap behind rear wheels...
  17. 1gor
    Now it is starting to look as modern Miura... From profile view all is good, only rear has to much gap ?

    You can use wedge belt wheel between 8448 wheel and new hub (and central axle if you use portal axle housing)... https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4185#T=C

    Honestly, it is small size moc, something like Anthem (scale 1:20) on which I'm no expert if how good you can replicate real thing but Cab looks well proportioned; at least you have no problem with steering wheel size. I see that you have the same issue as me - where to put battery box in moc and not in trailer All in all I think it is a good effort and personally I don't think that i could make it better
  20. 1gor
    This looks realistic

    Middle chassis part is finished and I think I can not make it better...now it consists of 2 light bluish gray H frames 5 X 12 and 6 black 5 X 7 frames and is finally enough sturdy...front and rear part to copy from this last posted version is no problem and axles took several month of development because I wanted simple as possible, but very sturdy axle that uses minimum if space due to all wheel drive, all wheel steering...and of course TLC enjoys making to wide tires ... Glad you like it, I'll upload new images as soon as I finish chassis... Regards

    Perhaps catalog printing companies have Tarzan as translator due to economy...
  23. 1gor
    Actually everything looks nice, only tail has stairs , perhaps you can use bionicle tooth part ti make it a bit smoother ?
  24. 1gor
    @hpil it is about 35 degrees for front and the same for rear axle
  25. 1gor
    Really great moc
