Hello everybody,
I didn't notice yet any MOD page of the Volvo EW160 excavator. I find this a really good set and as I'm an excavator lover, I couldn't resist to add a few modifications.
I have already done 2- 3 and I have others in my mind.
Here are the first ones
I took away the cab elevating mechanism. I find the excavator better proportioned this way. It looks a lot more like the real machine and IMHO also a lot nicer. The cab was in the original model too much forward and got in the way of good playability. I still have to get rid of the grey beam behind the cab.
I also put a swivel and turning mechanism on the grab, which also looks better and approaches the looks of the real machine.
The mods I'm planning is to arrange the hoses on the boom and add rigid hoses.
