Default Re: Scaleart - assembling an Arocs 8x8 roll on roll off kipper

The second axle is the same. Here I filed the little screw on top down to about 3mm. Because this is the throughput axle I was a bit concerned that at 5mm the end of the screw might interfere with the workings. On this one the track rod goes on the bottom.







And here installed. For some reason this one put up a struggle and was a real pain to get on the suspension. I think one of the long screws was at a slight angle.



Connect the 2nd steering lever. Made sure both rods front and back were the same length. Here one of those little bolts fell out. Was thinner than the others. Put it back in with some Loctite. (One package of them had 21 and the other 22 so if one goes missing there are some spares)



Here an overview. Added some lines. Looks like the front track rod needs some adjusting.



Best regards etc.
