Re: Wild semi concept vehicles
Reminds me of the "Cattle trucks" I rode during Army Basic Training at Ft Knox. Got hauled out to the firing range, obstacle course, and other training areas. Tractor-trailer, crowded and stinky!

Re: 870K Upgrades
Nice looking snow blade. Who is the supplier? Good job with the mods on the loader.

1/16 Axle with Differential needed
Current project needs a rear axle with differential. Tamiya/Lesu diffs are physically too large. The 1/18 axles I have seen don't have diffs.
Suggestions requested.
Thanks!

Yes, ribs for strengthening but also anti-abrasion. These machines were used to push in all kinds of material. WV and KY machines worked slot-dozing in a lot of sandstone, so experienced extreme...

Re: Newbie Scratch Build - D575A Dozer

Re: Newbie Scratch Build - D575A Dozer
Being an avid Komatsu guy, this build is great! Detail, proportion, function are just like the real Super Dozer. Congratulations on a successful first hydraulic test.
