Don't get me going on Taigen's torsion bars lol.....I pretty much had it up to my ears doing my Stug III hull....

....the Panzer IVs suspension it totally different from most others....the bogies are paired on a double swing arm...with one central pivot point ....that pivot point rocks back and forth like a see saw ....but that isn't the suspension...the suspension problem with the Taigen...are the swing arms ...as far as detail ... they look great...actually have more separate leaves than the HL..and Tamiya........problem is...it just doesn't compress and rebound....same problem with asiatam Panzer IV suspensions...except on asiatam... I had to do a few more tweeks than just changing out the spring
Anyway it was just a heads up for JT
