    I'd love to just build this and put a Barbie on it, but all my sister's Barbies are "mysteriously" headless.

    Great idea, but this is the live axle discussion.
  3. Technyk32231
    I'm trying to make a driven and steered live axle that has kingpin inclination to be used with 62.4 wheels. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? I have no CV joints, so I have to use universal joints.

    Somehow I think this would look really aggressive if you added some lime green highlights to the current black, or the reverse, with lime green and black highlights.

    Yes I do understand. I wasn't even talking about TwentyLeggedHen's axle when I said the half bush fits in real life. I was talking about my own axle, which has no driveshafts, or drive at all. Motor on Axle, pneumatics, etc.

    Or this axle could be used in a rear wheel drive vehicle. I don't know how you would attach links to this... I've found that it's best to design the axle keeping in mind that you will need link attachment points later.

    In real life, you can fit a half bush there. It doesn't work in LDD. In real life, it slightly stresses the 3L pins, but so little you don't even really notice it.

    Looking really nice! Sometimes I honestly forget that this is also the model team forum.

    I think the wheelbase is fine. It will probably look better though if you fill in the space between the cab and the rear axles. Right now, that space looks really empty.

    You can use a motorcycle head tube (Part number 2904) to get kingpin inclination. I've been experimenting with it, and it seems to work well. I don't think you can then make the axle driven, though. This is the rough idea:

    I think you mean Mecanum wheels...

    A mid-50s Gasser.

    Nice spot! Heehee... Yes you are a bit off topic.
  14. Technyk32231
    Yes they can. It just takes a little force.

    I think he modified the with little brass rods.
  16. Technyk32231
    I wonder why that is.
  17. Technyk32231
    Plus, the axle hole won't let the axle rotate inside it.
  18. Technyk32231
    Good idea. I would love to try that sometime, but I only have two receivers.
  19. Technyk32231
    I think the springs need to be rotated 90 degrees. With their current placement, when the axle articulates, the spring will bend.

    Very cool! It looks a lot like the real thing.
  21. Technyk32231
    I got it. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/technyk32/Miscellaneous/Forum/micro_independent_suspension.lxfCut a 6L link so that you get two end parts with a 1L axle coming out of each. Attach it to the hubs and tie rods.
  22. Technyk32231
    I know that the power to the 3rd axle isn't from the second axle, I meant the fact that the driveshaft is offset. It's just rare to see this in a lego model, not in real life.
  23. Technyk32231
    Man this is cool! I've never seen the offset axles in a lego model before. Edit: Actually I have seen that before. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-OoyFW_Hl89c/UaenM5oHKMI/AAAAAAAAAlk/8BH_zm3psvE/w800-h450-no/DSC02472.JPG

    The suspension is nothing like 8860.
  25. Technyk32231
    Cut a 3l bar into 3 1l sections, and put the sections inside the pin.
