  1. I understand; Porsche electric is not cheap set so it could not be seen even as a parts pack
  2. Looks very nice and certainly it doesn't stink like Zetors that I meet every day
  3. But do we have sturdy solution that is shorter than 5L? ...for ball socket?
  4. Nico, maybe I've missed explanation, but why don't you use this panel extension on hood? https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=71708&idColor=1#T=C&C=1
  5. I'm afraid with time they could get lose (at least that happens to all my perpendicular axle joiners after few use...)
  6. I was thinking about it since introduction of reduction hub on 42099 set
  7. @allanp tow ball socket part with such axle orientation will fall apart; it would be better (IMHO) that this part instead of pinhole has tow ball socket.
  8. I know 42030 uses 4 of them (black) in steering system ...but as it would be ordinary liftarms with axle holes
  9. Perhaps in some cases this part could do the thing.... https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=11272#T=C&C=77
  10. I know that, that is why tires from Raptor/ Buggy were perfect (IMHO) for JCB Loadall 560/80 that is used in scrapyards...my suggestion was yellow because he has lots of yellow parts (based on number of his MOCs in yellow) and tractor tires I agree are more suitable for forest equipment
  11. Seeing your black grab arm, I suggest you to make it yellow and with smallest tractor tires...
  12. So te recap interesting simple playable smaller set without any new part (just recolors)
  13. Yes, but then you need to secure 1 x 2 beam with this parts in order not to fall apart. https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=18651&idColor=11 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4265c&idColor=86#T=C&C=86 ...and use those thin beams: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=41677&idColor=7#T=C&C=7
  14. Xerion tires are on wheel futuristic, or as you said 8462 wheels and Zetros tires (42129) are on rims from buggy
  15. Ladies and gentlemen if someone of you is interested how to use wheel futuristic with portal axles hubs, or other hubs that have 3 pins, you can see my idea in this gallery. Just keep in mind that is a wide solution. So far I didn't test it to see how it handles torque, but I think when using one L motor for drive it would be acceptable
  16. Ok; I'll make shorter post with link on gallery where those images are hosted. Thanks buddy
  17. There were some quiet times with my projects, but I can (so far only) post idea how to use portal axles (or other compatible wheel hubs) with futuristic wheels... @Jim and @Milan I wasn't sure if this is appropriate for General part discussion tread, so I have posted in my tread. If you feel that this solution could be interesting to wider public (than those who peek from time to time into my tread) feel free to copy this post into General part discussion tread.
  18. But your models are optimized with less parts possible (something that I use only on structure, but my goal for details made it usually over 1500 pieces). @Porsche96 sorry to derail your topic a bit
  19. Yes, but it is very very complicated because there are no enough small shocks @jorgeopesi made once one light bluish gray 4 x 4 Tatra-inspired chassis that is small enough, but he uses rubber beams to act as absorbers...which doesn't work for me because my version is much heavier...
  20. To me it is not a problem to "make steering arm longer"; my constant problem is that my MOCs are to wide...so I would really prefer to have 2 studs shorter arms (made from this part); just to be cut where are two ½ pin holes and have only axle holes at the end
  21. Maybe he meant clearance to 16 tooth gear? But even that seem to be more 3-4 studs ...
  22. I was also hoping for 4L steering arm; some my projects with reduction hubs went down the drain because of not having short enough steering arm
