Scaleart - assembling an Arocs 8x8 roll on roll off kipper

[Rakthi]

Now have to do the back ledge of the interior.

For this we first need to attach the circuit board for the wiring in the cabin. This will make it possible to remove the cabine with only one plug to disconnect.











However ... connecting all those cables with the board attached will be a pain. So removed it for the duration. It can be attached again later.



The backboard goes in through the doors and I was surprised how easy it slipped in place. Had expected worse.



It screws in from the bottom. The hole in the plate is threaded.



The manual specs M2x6 ... however this makes the screw poke into the cabin with a mm or 2. Replaced those screws with M2x4s left over for another group. Perfectly flush now.



Noticed I had forgotten the seat bases. Supposed to be bolted on before installing the floor. Still easily done good access from below.





Next up the seats and dashboard or maybe I do the cabling first ... (so not looking forward to that bit)

Cheers
