I like cults, there is a lot of interesting designs on there. If you are looking for a loader, large excavator or haul truck I highly recommend taking a look at the models designed by burnie222rc. Very well designed and for 3d printed construction equipment, they can really take a beating. I built his small cat loader and am very pleased with it.
Good to know the Bernie models are solid. Never gotten a chance to play with one in person.

the Ford was supposed to be based on a Traxxas trx4m. Kinda narrow so widened axles with new metal housings. Stock knuckles. Originally designed it with a copy of the Traxxas 4link on a simple steel frame. I lost those files when I upgraded my cad desktop to windows 11. A couple folders were not synced to the cloud. My mistake. Been redesigning it to use lesu leaf springs and my own radius arms in the front. Will be poor performance, but true to scale. Should look good on course with the semi trucks.
