Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

How long ago did you build the crane?

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

1991 was the crane build and a major overhaul / upgrade was done 1999 before the big World tour 1999-2000. My son is now 28 and daughter is 25. Time goes fast when you have fun :lol:

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Hey nice build could you share some pictures of the inside of the truck? would like to se the driveline and stuf like that on a rig like this

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Twin steer, tri-drive?

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

Thanks for asking. Yes i will make some Picture this weekend of the underside of the KH Beam Hauler. It's not much secrets under there :)

Kent. I've ben lazy, have not put all the new axles on this one yet........two axle drive twin steer works quite well. The frame looks like a swiss cheese and need to be replaced at some point. The frame rails was used on something else before this truck, at the time i didn't have long enough rails so......
I can share a secret with you.........I'm Building a second copy of this truck with all the bling and exclude all the mistakes in the first one. To much time/work to upgrade the first one......It's going to retire when the new one is ready.
Oops ! i forgot to say A build Documentation is under way for the KH Beam Hauler the II

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

That's a picture from the Manufacturer Terex/Demag Germany it's not a model yet. But i got the Blueprints/Hardcopy so i could scale it and build it.

Re: KH Beam Hauler
 

What about your other models who makes those if you don't mind me asking ?

Re: KH Beam Hauler
