Re: Bob's M1070 (maybe)
Bob, my first chassis was 23" long. I tried mounting TLT axles on it, but they were too close together to allow the rear one to steer, and also too wide for the length of the chassis. I agree that the rear dual axles have a good width for that length, but I couldn't come up with driven steering axles that were narrow enough to match. My scale probably IS a lot closer to 1/12, but I'm happy with the scale being a compromise; as long as I can end up with an 8x8 working tractor. -Mike
