August 27, 201311 yr The best video review of 41999;) Coming for the creator of the awesome set this means a lot! Thank you rm8! tim
August 27, 201311 yr so the gear swap on the motors was not that great. I didn't even have enought torque for flat carpet at that point. I am wondering if someone could share some ideas on how to speed it up without sacrificing torque? Or maybe putting in a 2-speed gearbox so it can be switched from high mode to low mode as needed? The XL motors is the only way I can think of doing that.
August 27, 201311 yr In case anyone wants to play with LDD model, here's my LXF: LXF file Awesome, thanks that will help me convert my latest mod of my 41999 to LDD. When I do finally dismantle it, I want it digitally recorded. I will be posting pictures of it soon...
August 28, 201311 yr Does anyone have a some pictures of how they put xl-motors for the wheels ? IS the xl motor larger then the standard motor ?
August 28, 201311 yr The XL motors are much bigger than the standard L motors. If you search on Google, you will be able to find XL motor mods for 9398 which has exactly the same axles, so will be the same modifications.
August 28, 201311 yr So here it is, my first mod for the 41999. Not sure if you can really call it a mod, it's more of a... thing. Anyway, maybe some people remember the Enforcer, my entry for the Technic competition which came second to rm88's Boss. It was only a matter of time before I decided to try to recreate it using the 41999 so I did. However I added a few 'modifications' using parts from my 8455 backhoe loader. Firstly, an excavator bucket has been added to the front bumper for a more 'evil' appearance. Secondly, a wheel powered cannon has been mounted in the rear bed. It can be raised, lowered and ammo can be fed by pneumatics and the cannon is just two rapidly spinning wheels powered by a geared up M motor with a clutch gear to stop me blowing up the motor in the event of a jam. So here it is, I like to call it the 'Boss-forcer Devastator'. Sorry about the poor image quality, hopefully I'll get a video sorted soon.

August 28, 201311 yr Real killing machine for destruction derby!:) BOSS DESTROYER! That's epic crazy_1993 !!! Lol, thanks, hopefully I'll get round to finishing the LXF and video soon.
August 28, 201311 yr OK so here they are, the videos showcasing my "Boss-forcer Devastator" mod: Part 1 Part 2 Enjoy! Edited August 28, 201311 yr by crazy_1993
August 29, 201311 yr VIDEO XL Motors and geared up ... http://www.flickr.co...N08/9622106504/ I don't recommend doing this because the motors limit suspension travel and the torque from the xl motors distorts the structure a little, but it is fun :) Edited August 29, 201311 yr by JM1971
August 29, 201311 yr It does remind me of death race! I think it reminds more of "cars" from Mad Max 2!

September 2, 201311 yr Ok so originally it was a 9398 and not a 41999 - but here's Retro-Boss coming to say 'Hello' Planning on motorising the popup lights - dual function it with a winch and add the original v4 engine in it and power it from the drive-train some how (oh and get those blue seats back in too)

September 2, 201311 yr I like to call it the 'Boss-forcer Devastator'. Looks like it's taken straight from Carmageddon.
September 6, 201311 yr my baja boss is finished and i have a final vid for you. i hope you have fun with it
