tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

got an idea! a year ago. same time as the bullhead. built at same time.

started by ordering parts from all over the world. bought a frame and gearbox. had an idea it would be possible to make the six wheel drive.

wondered if I could raise the gearbox so I got more ground clearance.

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

now that I'm doing this. then I had no drawing! it was all in my head, the problems which arose were solved gradually.

cut the frame and welded them.

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

I was going to raise the gearbox. it started good .... but when the body was in place, then the gearbox was too high. redo, do it right! Now it starts to get complicated.

angle of the drive shaft became very sharp!!!!!

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

had to rout a new aluminum plate with a different angle. so I could lay down on the gearbox on the side.

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

I was going to use the original steering.



http://i1099.photobucket.com/albums/...n/DSC_0228.jpg



servo is moved from the side, in front of the gearbox instead.

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

is not so much images on the rear wheels. it will be rear-wheel steering. intend to use the original steering here. but had to remove it. I put a servo instead.

buy rims for the truck! use the original tires. for they go well with the car

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
 

transmitter was ordered! it should be used to the gearbox and two winches, as well as the fifth wheel.

Re: tundra6x6 with Trailer!!
