Default Re: Day Cab Work Truck by Izzy

as always , nice work Izzy

I noticed here a problem
on the suspension photo from our UK trucker Brel

Brel , do I see this correct and you use a solid drive-shaft ( no length-adjustment ) instead of the original dog-bone for your rear axles ?

You can not do that , you gone put your suspension in a bind .
If you want to do this you need to replace the lower control-arms from at least one axle
and replace them with something what has a variable length , like a shock

check out this link here ,

it shows one of my 6WD builds
and pay close attention to the photos how I did the rear-axle suspension
