Small 4x4 jeep

[TomasHubik]

Hi guys,

finally, after 4 months, i got back to lego (so much work). I wanted to build smallest 4x4 jeep that will looks and drive good.

I started to build smallest suspensioned 4x4 chassis. I was afraid of driving characteristics, becouse there were no space for differencials. However, i was really suprisend how good jeep drives. The turning radius is little bigger on carpet, but on floor, or ground it´s perfect!

Jeep is driven by one XL motor witch gave a lot of strenght and speed (do not expect juping :D), but it´s a total snale.

Both axle has supsnesions. (no springs only rubbers). However it´s greate to take it to the nature. Even snow is not problem for this beast :D

The body is build as jeep, but not as any existing one. It´s just some jeep :). The body can bee easyly removed and replace by another one.

So, what do you think? I will upload only 1 photos, but you can find more here: http://www.kostky.or...p?topic=43677.0

Looks great! Looking forward to the vid. You might want to fix your links though, they all link to the same picture.

Nice Jeep. I look forward to the video and more images if you can.

I just looked at your images, nice drive train set up. I prefer a differential set up myself but I like what you've done.

I also like more drive train with differencials, but with this scale, is almost imposible (for me), to use differencials.

Not totally impossible - you have to think outside the box and perhaps use them longitudonally

Hi, thanks for your replay. I don´t totaly understand your "outside box " :) do you have any example? It would be great to make it with differencial in the same diemsnions. Thanks. I will try to make video today.

For example this model is 4x4 (one diff only but easily you could fit 2 in there )

also the smaller panda 4x4 that was on here recently - did not use diffs like your jeep and handled really well
