Re: Volvo A40F
I got the a-frame pivot brackets done.
It seems now that I must change the middle axle for the version that has raised input/output shaft to get more clearance for the drive shaft The original has that kind of middle axle too.

Re: Volvo A40F
Yeah, I was eyeballing your drawings & assemblies & was beginning to wonder what interferences there might be with the driveline.
New parts to see everyday, you seem to be moving forward quite quickly.

Re: Volvo A40F
Hey that diff in the last picture is what I am after! Well I need two I guess...
The suspension parts are looking great Ari! Did you ever get the TIG welding figured out? |

Re: Volvo A40F
I'm still struggling when I try to weld thin plate to some thicker part, I can't get the thicker part hot enough before thin one melts away

Re: Volvo A40F
I had this same problem with my A30c 1/16 scale. Totally impossible to build as the real one.

Re: Volvo A40F
Beautiful truck so far!! Applause!
Using that new axle should make the truck much more durable. Since the shaft passes through the differential of the middle axle the current axle has to withstand the load of both axles.. The axle with the bypass (provided it actually is a bypass) distributes the load equally onto both axles. Should be much better for the drive train.. Cheers Pip |

Re: Volvo A40F
This is a nice build you have started. All the work is top-notch, just like your other builds. I enjoy watching how you design the parts and then machine all the pieces. Great work!!
