Hi guys, this is my second version for trial truck with 8 wheels. Two pf medio motor for drive and one pf motor medio for steering. Rear drivetrain with custom absover shocks and full pendular suspension. Videos coming soon. Tanks.

Looks great but with only 2 M motors for drive it may be underpowered.

I think the same thing...XLs would be better choice.

But we will wait for the video to see it in action.

Cannot wait for video. Maybe truck is extra light and 2x M-motor is sufficient ;) I'like your design, good job.

What custom absorbers did you make?

Thanks for the comments. XL motors are really the best option, but the two I have are on Rockcrawler. Yet I was surprised with the result of pf medium. Follow the link of the first 2 videos.

It performs well, certainly better than i thought it would powered by only 2 pf m motors!...

What sorta gearing does it use and how much does it weigh in at?

Great MOC with nice, controllable performance tackleing tough terrain. Two medium motors should provide more than enough power for something like this, it's no speed demon after all.

Thanks, really surprised the engine performance. It weighs around 1500kg and reductions are 12> 20-12> 20-12> 20-12> 20-8> 24 t.

It's nice to see a MOC with this quality coming from Brazil. Also, great Idea with the custom shock absorber

Thanks for the compliment, here in Brazil that I know I am the pioneer in this category. I'm trying to get more fans of this type here.

The absover shocks was the solution I found for greater suspension travel.

I'm brazilian also and started buying lego sets again this year, plan to start build some MOCs soon, but don't even know where to start =(... Also, need to get a hand on some PF somehow...

You could build Mahjqa's "Intermediate Power Functions Chassis" with PF parts you can buy on Bricklink.com .

Thank you for the indication, from the looks of it ( ), just need the PF, and my differential is the new one (but it looks like it doesn't matter)...

I'll cool down for a little (just bought 13 sets in a month =D), and will order them from bricklink probably... In the meantime I'll disassemble all my sets, do the B-Model of them and after that try to replicate grohl666 alternates =)

DLuders sent me their site (thank you btw dude), I'll sign up right away. Thanks
