    It looks as if the Bronco could fit a rechargeable battery box in the rear with only a little modification. EDIT: I mis-counted, sorry. It would need quite a lot of modification, so it wouldn't be so easy.

    The XL motors are much bigger than the standard L motors. If you search on Google, you will be able to find XL motor mods for 9398 which has exactly the same axles, so will be the same modifications.

    I think that this might be helpful. I don't fully understand though.

    I've made one small modification, by placing the bottom one of these upside down. This should hold together nicely now.

    That must have been your motor, or were you using the speed controller? The servo motor along side a normal IR controller should return to centre. If not, your motor must be broken. There is nothing in the Crawler set to make it return to centre either.

    I don't really understand. I think you mean the gears to drive the axle? That's really straightforward when you choose the right gears. With crawlers, don't use a differential though. Show me what you have designed, and I'll see what I can do.

    It has return to centre which is always handy in small racing cars. It may not be so useful for crawlers, but it is very good for saving space/effort.

    Ok, I'll help you a best as I can. Axles and hubs are the bit I enjoy most haha. What do you need?

    It's a very basic first picture, but it should work just the same when implemented into a trial truck. Black - Chassis Yellow - Rear floating axle Blue/Green - Suspension If you also want some help with hubs, axles etc, I'll try to help.

    The rear axle is a very simple design. It would be incredible simple to build that type of suspension, and I will give it a go.
  11. cgg199
    I wouldn't use those arms if I were you. I'll make an LDD file of a working design. Should I make some wheel hubs as well for you? EDIT: This is harder than I previously thought. EDIT 2: I'm not even sure this can be done without using some form of, incredibly inefficient, flex axle design.

    They are too big.
  13. cgg199
    I can only agree more. It does just appear to be a clutch.
  14. cgg199
    He's not making them anymore. They take too much effort, and I respect him for even giving it a go. It's a daunting task.

    With the racing truck on the back!

    Have fun paying over the rate on Bricklink then!

    Ok, you should be able to see a bit where the black part of the shock absorber comes though a small slit on each side of the coloured part. all you need to do, is oust these bits in with a fingernail, and lightly pull the black bit out. Then just remove the spring.
  18. cgg199
    They are from the shorter shock absorbers.

    Other than one person telling you, where was the official release date of July 12th mentioned?
  20. cgg199
    Now how do I do that? I updated the shifting mechanism, for a shorter gearbox!
  21. cgg199
    Each of the 3L axles above the long worm drive, hold an 8 tooth gear, except the end ones. Due to them being 3 studs apart, the 4 stud gear rack, will always be in contact with 2 of the gears. Unfortunately I don't have the right parts to build it, so I guess someone else will have to.
  22. cgg199
    Cheers Jon. I think I have a gearbox now, using Piterx's design with a modified shifting mechanism.
  23. cgg199
    There you are. I don't know how it will perform in real life, but theoretically, it should be fine. The bit that moves...
  24. cgg199
    I'll post a picture of the LDD file in a bit. It just needs some finishing off.
  25. cgg199
    You'll never guess what! I've modified this gearbox, and it fits in the space that I wanted it. It's slightly less accurate, but the shifter is more compact because the arm with the blue cross axles isn't there. I used worms gears instead, and the arm doesn't leave the area of the gearbox.
