Good morning Jofaur.
Thank you again for the link to Wedico. In answer to your question about the four wheel steering. The base is this model. One of which I obtained second hand.

Bonjour Jofaur.

Merci encore pour le lien vers Wedico. Pour répondre à votre question sur la direction à quatre roues directrices : le modèle de base est celui-ci. J’en ai d’ailleurs acheté un d’occasion.

And because I never do things in a logical order. I widened, shaped, and installed the rear mudguards.

I then decided to remove anther 12mm from between the rear pair of steering wheels, and the front pair of the driving wheels. This left a small pocket, which was enlarged so a battery could be installed. The chassis was joined back together, with some reinforcements made, the mudguards over the second, steering wheels were removed, ready to be widened, and the fifth wheel replaced. Lastly I could not resist photograph the two trucks together.

And it's hacked apart...and then back together looking better than ever. You are a brave soul!
The Scania really has "the look". What are your paint plans?

Mike.

Nicely done mate I would prob be to scared to tackle that

That Scanni is coming along really well Ian. You've done a first class job on those rear mudguards, very tidy indeed

Once the decision has been made and the first cut made, then there is no going back. A total of 45mm has been removed from between the wheels. Plain olive drab. Hopefully there is a company in Denmark who will make the required decals.

Thank you for the compliment.

Wheel weights came today. 410g To be packed in and around the rear drive axels, otherwise it has virtually zero traction. A quick drive shows it probably requires another 200g. As thes are so light over the rear, they just spin the back wheels, but not in a fun, drive it like you stole it, donut type way.
