MAN 26.320 and MAN 33.385

Ulrich,

Thanks for the link, now I think I understand what is going on... It's just a byproduct of having a centre differential... If the truck stops on a steep slope, and the traction on the front wheels isn't sufficient, the rear wheels torque will be transferred through the centre diff to the front wheels.... The front wheels then start to slip, going backwards whilst the rear wheels roll down the slope.

To stop this you have to have a lockable centre differential.

Cheers,
AP

Hi,
another year gone by since the last post of mine and it´s again been a year since the trucks had left their boxes. The annual meeting of www.modell-baustelle.de was an opportunity to let them out for a change. Same location, new pics:
