Hi to all,

This is my moc for 2014 Turklug Challenge about Trial Trucks. It has 1 XL (9 to 1 reduction) for propulsion and 1 M for steering. 1x leds for headlights. Axles are pendular and linked so no shock absorbers.

Some videos and pics,

Thanks for watching :)

Looks good. One question, doesnt the steering rack touch the wheels?

Thanks. No it doesnt touch but its very close.

Nice job! I like all the different colors.

I don't think I've ever seen steering transferred to an axle like that! Awesome vehicle.

TLH

Very nice! I really like the way the steering is transferred to the front axle.

Nice build!!!

Finally someone else who uses linked pendular suspension! I too used it in my last MOC, and I think it makes for great axle movements. Also, I am quite impressed with the steering mechanism. I have definitely never seen that before!

Unique steering solution and the pendular suspension is nice too.

Almost same time with me Thirdwigg use this style suspension you can check from here http://www.eurobrick...pic=77560&st=25

and my rival Nimdian too http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=93106 (and another rivals design, cagri, http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=92769)

Main goal of this steering transfer it doesnt "leaning" efect

Cool truck!

I too like the suspension and steering setup.

I also like the subtle use of panels creating a nice slope downwards on the front of the cab.

What gear was cracking in the video?

Thanks for comment. It was red gear on left, slide on axle. Right one is upgraded setup, there are 3 more 8 tooth gears but i cant add them on LDD.

I like the coloring. Well done.

Nice truck. I will watch the videos later.
