Hey man, don't see panhard rods in buses and in trucks, why?

[LettersForTheTimes]

Suspension is mushy as hell. Your "review" is more like a "list of features" ... but LEGO stops sending nice things to "review" when you REALLY review them. I understand.

[KyleP133]

Props for knowing what a panhard bar is!

[JoNniixD]

can i buy it anywhere?

[iza2098]

please make a video with it haveing the smallest tires possible

[Aratixwrx]

would removing the panhard rod/bar make the axle suspension function horribly? because it seems to me that you could remove it and still have 3 points of contact with the chassis and even more suspension articulation.

[Conchinhas]

@Aratixwrx

Yes, it would allow strong sideways movement.

This because the torque tube contact point allows this kind of lateral movements.

[MrHenrikjuul]

Very nice videos!

looking forward to getting my own.

not looking difficult to replace piston engine with 2 PF XL, PF steering, and maybe even a Sariel type gearbox....

-boost up the compressor with another cylinder, making gearshift pneumatic, and move the steering of the arm to the flatbed, where there is room enough to make it remote controlled.... 7 channels will be needed. something to do in the autumn!

[Aratixwrx]

@Conchinhas are the portal axles geared down? or is it just 1:1?

[Conchinhas]

@Aratixwrx

1:1 in the official model.

But you can use the same parts with combinations like 24t + 8t (3:1) and 20t + 12t (5:3)

[Aratixwrx]

@Conchinhas That sounds great! I think I'll do 3:1 when I build my model, im also going to put a motor in the place of the piston engine, and somehow motorize the steering, also add an IR receiver for full infrared control. I can't wait!

Também!

Então esse unimog estava na exposição em paredes de coura ou já é possivel adquirir ??

[Conchinhas]

@mdsf997

It still not possible to acquire in the market.

It was not in PdC, but it will be next weekend in TOMAR BRInCKa 2011.

[mdsf997]

[Sheepo86]

Again graet video!! (where are the second part?)

The new springs are softer or harder than the 8466 set??

[Conchinhas]

@Sheepo86

They're harder!

I'm still preparing and uploading new videos. Some will become available to see, only with the review. ;)
