Oh?

The front axle bends under load with current setup. I would make it more robust

That is a good point, and one of the problems with many larger Mocs. Even sheepos long nose truck had a front axle bend.

Sorry for the lack of updates I have been busy and I have been organizing my Legos. But I have redone the back suspension and it is powered by 2 XL motors nowew I have a new signature.

Update time! I have redone the front suspension so it is a lot more robust and I have upgraded the back suspension so it has 2 XL motors now. I also have made a new chassis and I have a photo place now.

Tell me what you think!

Much, MUCH, better, it looks a lot stronger, I would recommend widening the body in between the front and rear axles with some 5x7 frames to make bodywork much easier and stronger.

Thank you and I don't have any more 5x7 frames

I made a stand for my camera

It looks like your camera focused on the background. The axle looks a lot sturdier

Thank you!

just curious, what are you using for wheel hubs in the front axle? maybe you could take a picture without the rims on?

I will need to do that tomorrow but I will

Use studded beams, the make a very strong chassis if reinforced at the angles and vertically using plates.

I have added most of the bucket (I need to order parts) and I got the wheels in.

You should check your Chassis it is bending quite much. It is visible between the front and middle axle

With new wheels and Bucket made from 5x11 panels whole model looks more serious. Great progress. The only thing i noticed - axles with u-joints looks weak without bracing.

I know I am going to reinforce it.

Try to use some truss-like construction, with diagonal elements, connecting parallel beams. Making triangles like 3-4-5, 7-9-11 or 6-13-14 (every number is a triangle side length in studs) could help you much in creating rigid and strong constructions.

I have made a body but I will redo it later because I is very bad.

Tell me what you think!

wow, so much progress! looks much better with all the tires! imo the cab looks fine! although it's your build so do whatever you want.

It is going very well! But do you not have enough space to put the battery somewhere else and have a fake engine?

I don't want one.

You've come so far so quickly! Keep up the good work, enjoy yourself and never stop learning.

This has come really far, and looks great, but I'd say that axle from the XL motor to the LA needs some reinforcing.

I have finished the cab It has opening doors, an opening hood, chairs with movable armrests, and an interior. I also have moved the receiver.

Tell me what you think.
