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



Since I reminded myself, I installed the supports for the electronic platform

This need be done now. Once the drive train is in, no more access to that area.





A bit tight to install because of the steering rod. Another area that will need some touch up later on.



Other side was easy



Next up the cover of the diff lock servo of the front axles.





A nice detail, there is a slot just slightly bigger than the plug of a servo so you can stick the wire through.



Next front wheels





The protection ring just sticks on. This one clamped in place by itself, but the 3 other ones will need a bit of hot glue or some other sticky stuff if I don't want to loose them first time around.



Rear wheels. The washer and nut are the only thing I used from the package of fasteners that came with the rear axles













Next up is supposed to be the motor, gearbox, transfer box and prop shafts.



But, waiting for exhaust pipe that needs to go on before all the above goes in.
Want to wait with the bowden cables to, to see how they work with the motor etc.

Guess I'll just read through the book and see what I can do in the mean while.
