1/14 parts on a 1/16 bruder cab ?
i got a bruder/scania cab from ebay and its 1/16 scale , looking on ebay all i can find are 1/14 parts (axles , springs etc)
can i use the 1/14 parts on my build without them looking out of place or not fitting ? Axle in question : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200983451885 Springs : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201021234225 Last edited by Dans34; 03-08-2014 at 09:22 AM. |

A lot of people use the bruder cab on tamiya frames. The tamiya axel is a little wider and the wheels will stick out a little... You can use a tamiya acel but you may have to modify the wheel off set to get the wheels placed correctly....search YouTube for bruder r/c and you will see some builds. lots of people have modified the bruder Mack into a tamiya frame. I'm sure you could do the same with the scania...

Actually I retract my previous statement.. I just measured my stock bruder mack and stock tamiya widths at the wheels and they are both about the same overall width. The bruder was 7-1/4" the tamiya was 7-1/8"
