Re: Scania R 4x4 dump truck
I couldn't tell in the photos? Does the dump screw run from the same motor coming off the transfer case or its own separate motor? Nice job! Jim

Re: Nylint michigan crane conversion, hopefully
Shafts for the pulleys you mean? I used 1/8" steel round from the "hobby" rack at menards. I think you may need to drill out the center hole, I think they were a bit under size but verify.

Re: Nylint michigan crane conversion, hopefully
Friz,
once you start messing with it, let me know if you need more detail or have questions.

As long as you add a support rack for the off side I think it will work great, I only put two screws in the plastic horn. The screws are about 1/2" of from center so they will have all kinds of...

Re: Tonka Winnebago
Cool, nice photos! In one shot it looks like the angle on the driveshaft is pretty steep? I only ask because I could see this happening to me on my dump truck conversion.
