anybody done independent suspension?
 

I was surfing the german sites and say a MT actros with independent rear suspension, I was then looking at pre-runners and I though about making an independent front suspension set-up and solid axle rear just like pre-runners? any bone anything like it?:confused: doesn't seem like it would be much moore difficult:confused:

As in 2 halfs of one axle independed???

DAMN, the car is small as it is but wouldn't have thought there was room such things

I have seen one of those german made trucks with the independent suspensions.It would great if we had axles like that readily availible.

This is the kind of stuff I would have expected to be made by Killer :D

Bring on the pictures!

I made one with two live axles.

I mean like the front suspension on an ATV completely indep[endent from each side. left is it's own deal as is right.:D

Front suspension would be difficult if you ask me but rear suspention is do-able I think.

I do think it needs a (extremely small) wishbone setup.

The german truck I had seen had rear independent suspension with trailing arms and very tiny dogbones.

It can be done with the NWSL dogbones I mentioned in a different thread. Here is a pic of my next TTTT project that has been sitting colecting dust for about 8 months. it will be 4 wheel drive and the dogbones in the picture are for steering.

hi guys tttt prts .org plans a (urg idont know how its called in english)steering axle with "einzelradaufhängung" wich means each front wheel is suspendet separatly for winter 2003 attachment means micro soldering has to be done to assemble it

Hi,
I ve got the best results by using a 1:30 gearbox from www.mikroantriebe.de that is mounted by springs. The frontaxle is also mounted by springs.

So every axle can move on its own an the body of the car is still upright.
Some cars that using axles without springs (or very soft springs)are instable.
That why I use a strong kind of brass plates (In german = "Federbronce") as springs. Normaly this one is using at the modelrailroad as electric connection to the wheels.

Here you should see a picture of a driveline using the named gearbox (the springs are here not to see)


best regards
