Update time!! I have upgraded the steering (so it works a lot better and so it has a good turning radius),tell me what you think.

Also, I geared it down.

Imo, it is much better to try for yourself, 10 times if it is needed.

You will get a lot of valuable experience and you will improve your build so much more.

That is the beauty of the Lego.

If you really feel the need for some inspiration, try looking at the official models, chassis, suspensions and drivetrains, and after that try checking out some of the models that people built.

Update time! I have made a temporally body (its not that good) and I have made the frame 2 studs wider.

I think It might make a good trail truck but looks can be deceiving some times. The body looks good but I think you need to add a flatbed to the back or wake the chassis thicker where it only has 1 stuff height.

Easy to test:

- Can it run over your foot?

- Can it climb a steep hill (30 degrees?)

Those are usually the first 2 tests I do when I finished a trial truck, if I hear rattling, it's getting fixed with additional bracing or whatever is needed.

The location of the battery box concerns me a bit though. Its current location makes it rear heavy and it's set pretty high, making the vehicle more likely to tumble on its side. Suggestion would be to move it between the front and rear wheels, perhaps "below" the bed (might sacrifice a bit of ground clearance).

Nice.

Battery box is pretty centered like that. Might be a bit high. Try it sideways on the 30 degree slope and see if it tumbles. If not, try a steeper angle and see when it tumbles. Pretty much anything will fall once you get closer to 45 degrees I think.

A friendly tip: There's no need to announce your pictures.

Simply post something when you have made some progress and shot some pictures.

Update time! I have lowered the battery box by one stud, I have put wheels on the back, and I took pic's of how steep it can drive, please tell me how steep (by degrees) it is.
