    During process of redesigning front axle, I've notices that front chassis part is not sturdy enough and whole front part is wobbling...so I have to make it stronger and result is this as you can see here front axle part was redesigning with four of this suspension arms https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=15459&idColor=86 to make front axle less wobble. After attaching a Cab I've realized that due to heavy front part of the truck Tires from black cat are to soft, so I had to make use of 62.4 Tire on 68.8 X 24 rimm and use parts like here in the photos to make even tire surface Next thing is to redesign the cab - need some small changes because of strengthened front chassis part.

    Now I have added some of the pictures that weer missing...

    Do not worry, there have been awesome creations from you in the past and certanly will follow in future.

    Idea with turntable sounds good to me because wobbling is a last thing we want on our mocs... About (spocket) wheels I know what you have for a problem. My models are based on tires (as precise as possible) and for years I'm trying to decide which particular measirement I'll stick for the future built - same scale for trucks, tractors and havent even try to construck excavators, so I'll follow your development to see what can I do...perhaps there will popup something extraordinary

    Very nice small sailing ship. It has even a flag at the top of sail . You shuld really start looking after yout eyes with this microdesign

    It seems that 42067 (flag)ship floats only in imagination... It is reasonable to have a good reason (to buy this set)

    ...but it is Ukrainian...

    Perhaps my solution on Case IH STX 530 quadtrac can help you (using turntables and smaller treads, but 42069 treads are much stronger...) http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=365319 I was looking also Volvo brochure and tracks are some 1,3meters high - for me to high for current spockets...

    Nice model indeed IMHO best set this year

    I think @Jurss gave you all necessary answers, so admins can start to think on to lock this topic for further replies.

    We'll follow it

    Interesting project , but there is one thing that interests me; which thred spocket wheels will you use (it is a tracked excavator), because biggest ones (from 42069 set this year) look to small IMHO

    Very inreresting and clever battery box placement. The only complain is that color sheme is not tipical to dozers but with correct one it would not be valid C model. Again very good moc.

    You're wellcome. About Powepullers you are right, so called BigFoot pickup like in U.S. shows is kind of monster 4 X 4 and PP wheels would be perfect in that case...
  15. 1gor
    It looks cool, but depending on size it could be called Monster 4 x 4 offroad pickup

    Really nice model. Honestly it is a bit unusual to have tractor tires on such military vehicle, so IMHO your model is more accurate than official 42070 set

    Vibor, your version of Karman Ghia is very nice, but IMHO your model is more suited to scale modeling subtheme

    Sorry guys, it was not helpfull...

    You probably mean 8448 wheels - they are too loose with 42000, 8466 and 42054/56 hubs, so in that case you'll have to ise otdinary axles...but wheels are great. If you're looking for wheel with positive offset then Porsche wheel is the solution, but without drive; above mentioned hubs have bad steering angle.

    @josszo , perhaps this could help (it is articulated tractor...)
  21. 1gor
    It looks like this model is made for display in the living room
  22. 1gor
    Very nice find. We saw something blue in form of seats but we ignored them because (at least I thought) it looked like ordinary blue...
  23. 1gor
    My too, but often I buy sets for parts, you could never have enough beams, gears, connectors, panels in other words LEGO Because of this uncurable infection we are on this forum
  24. 1gor
    For front suspension you're right, but for rear using 8466 hubs make rear wheels not stiff enough
  25. 1gor
    @josszo I assume that you have some Aces in your sleeve so you're driving arround in public Ikarus 280 Articulated Bus to see if you missed something to improove your masterpiece Just take all the time that you need to finish model. You can not force the Art...
