Posted October 23, 201410 yr Hello, everyone! I built 4WD off road pickup truck being inspired by the set 42029. It is not a copy of actual truck, but some details look similar to Ford Raptor and Toyota Tundra which I referred to. Weight: 1570g Features, 4 wheel drive with 3 differentials 2 XL motors for driving Servo motor for steering Working V8 engine Working front and rear LED lights via power function switch Suspensions Front: independent Rear: live axle Openable hood, doors and glove box:) Lockable tailgate Detachable bull bar and roll bar Double wishbone front suspension is the same as 42029. Which means that front axle has a differential and CV joints without portal hub reduction. They cannot handle much torque for offroad driving. So I put portal hub on rear axle. Gear ratio is 3 : 1. That can handle enough torque. This setting enables central differential to act as torque vectoring diff. Front wheels recieve 25% of torque and rear wheels recieve 75%. Thus this Truck has good offroad capability. Three differentials and pairs of CV joints works smoothly, and they did not break or snap. You can change body color, and choose the type of battery box: 8878 or 8881. Video: Building instructions and more pictures: https://plus.google....64977943/albums I hope you will like it! Edit: I forgot exhaust tailpipe in all pictures. This is the final version! Edited October 29, 201410 yr by Madoca 1977
October 23, 201410 yr Woow, this is a great MOC. I really like the design and that it packs so many functions. Congrats !
October 23, 201410 yr I wish we could have it in silver... It looks very like an american style Ford pick-up.
October 23, 201410 yr Author Oh my God. I forgot to add exhaust tail pipe! Here it is. Edited October 23, 201410 yr by Madoca 1977
October 23, 201410 yr Another (pair) of awesome MOC(s). Can you show a bit more in detail how you made the front wheel steering? I'd like to see how you guided the steering arms so they dont colide with the frame/steering rack.
October 23, 201410 yr It is insane, but when I imagine the red version with black rims and decals (bumpers, side steps, grill, etc.), I think I won't sleep next night... :D Edited October 23, 201410 yr by Gzzig
October 23, 201410 yr First off your an amazing builder !!!!! I think this is the best looking pickup/Truck that I have seen in pure Technic or even studded . I look foreword to the instructions , I will make this in red (hope I have all the parts ). So far I have made your AWD SUV MK2 and busy with your corvette C3 stingray that will be in black . I have also ordered parts to build the tatra 813 and Wing Body Truck , the Truck will have to wait a bit because all those panels are going to be costly . Your buggy and Buggy 2 where a big inspiration for my buggy . Thank you so much for all the instructions and fund I have had building your M.O.C's. On a side not would you mind posting a picture of your Lego building area and all your Lego I am always keen to see other peoples setup . My Lego room Thanks again !
October 23, 201410 yr Great Tundra, Madoca! Devolro version Wanted!!!:) Edited October 23, 201410 yr by rm8

I'd like to see how you guided the steering arms so they dont colide with the frame/steering rack. These pictures are part of instructions. 5x7 frame is 1 stud under the axle.
October 23, 201410 yr Another work of art, congratulations Madoca 1977 and thank you for sharing your gift to build these wonders with those equal to I do not have such an ability to create these wonders. Forgive me for using a translator ...
October 23, 201410 yr Looks absolutely awesome, reminds me of Toyota HiLux modified by Arctic Trucks of Iceland! It alsways amazes me how you manage to make such beautiful lines on your MOCs!
October 23, 201410 yr This is one awesome creation. I get the same feeling looking at this as I had as a little kid looking at the 8858 Rebel Wrecker until I finally got it for my birthday. It looks tough and cool. And loaded with functions. Great job.
October 23, 201410 yr Awesome work as always. IMO this is your best looking MOC(along with the corvette)
October 23, 201410 yr Absolutely stunning. An absolute must build. Thank you for sharing your creations and instructions.
October 23, 201410 yr You used a very interesting technique to mount the panel on the upper part if the door, well done! tim
October 23, 201410 yr Wow... this looks awesome.. complete, full featured.. hats off. And those proportions.. Edited October 23, 201410 yr by Sylvian
October 23, 201410 yr This is the REAL 42029... 100000% better then the Piece of Crap Truck from Lego... Good Job Madoca ;-)
