January 1, 201510 yr What a beast! I see I've still to buy lots of red parts to build it. Or I'd better to build it in yellow.... Greetings Alex
January 1, 201510 yr How long is it in centimeters? About 60 cm. Weighs about 6 kg, including 18 AA batteries. Edited January 1, 201510 yr by jantjeuh
January 2, 201510 yr Yes, they are the right size, European trucks don't have the large tyres they have in America
January 2, 201510 yr Author Done at last I'm really happy to see it!! Thanks for all the hard work!!! :thumbup: What's the measurements of the truck? It looks huge! Height: 36 cm (40,8 cm with aerials) Width: 24,8 cm (29,6 with mirrors) Length: 56,8 cm Weight: 5.9 Kg
January 3, 201510 yr European trucks don't have the large tyres they have in America On-highway trucks in North America, Europe, Australia, South America, Africa etc all use similar size tyres. Edited January 3, 201510 yr by andythenorth
January 3, 201510 yr Author On-highway trucks in North America, Europe, Australia, South America, Africa etc all use similar size tyres. I'm deeply ignorant about extra EU tyre size ...the Unimog wheels are a bit to small but a bit to wide (we talking about a couple of decimal points). So It's a compromise, especially for the rear axle.
January 3, 201510 yr I do not think the are small, the look just about right to me. And some transport companies use wider tyres on all axles. i've driven with a truck with 315mm wide tyres on the rear axle.
January 5, 201510 yr Wow it doesn't even fit on the table! May I ask, how much bigger is the tractor truck than lets say the unimog u400 or the Volvo l350f Looks like this:

January 15, 201510 yr Author If everything go right, the instructions will be ready in a couple of weeks.
January 16, 201510 yr Author Could you release parts list first? I think I will share before issuing instructions. But it is not yet ready.
January 24, 201510 yr Wow, finally the instruction is up! http://rebrickable.com/mocs/Lucioswitch81/tractor-truck
January 24, 201510 yr Wow, finally the instruction is up! http://rebrickable.c...1/tractor-truck You beat me to posting the link Have fun building it!
January 24, 201510 yr "You have 99,2 % of the required parts" Two clicks on the PayPal buttons and the fun can start! TIP: Buy a cheap 8943 to get all those rounded panels And 2 copies of 42029 is a good start as well. This model has over a 1000 thick liftarms! Edited January 24, 201510 yr by Theo van Vroenhoven
January 25, 201510 yr Author "You have 99,2 % of the required parts" I have about 99% of the parts required. The funny thing is that I have only the 99.1% of the parts!!
January 25, 201510 yr I have around 75.335% of the parts, Oh wait no.... I am missing around 75.335% of the parts. Oops :cry3:
