Scrap heap 6x6 build
I decided to start another 6x6 just using parts that I have in my workshop, I am shooting for buying nothing but some hardware, materials for the bed and maybe shocks.
Custom length alu semi chassis
High Lift axles, alu rear lockouts
High Lift transmission
Custom walking beam rear suspension
Shocks to be determined later, but I am thinking SCX length, maybe High Lift shocks
Custom Scania cab
Wood flatbed stakebody (the one pictured is not the final bed, it is just on to see if I like it)
6 1.9 Flat Irons (because I have them)
I tried my hand at a walking beam setup
I had to make a front 4 link truss
Three speed fun
Body & bed
Not a bad start......
Still more to do, but I am liking the way the walking beam feels.
