Yes, there is a shaft I didn't model for the lift mechanism. Easy enough to do, just not necessary for all the mates to work properly. Using a universal joint out to the wings, but will have to index them properly so that you can fold the wings without binding (lift will have to be in the up position and you won't be able to let it down without unfolding first). Open to other ideas but this seemed simple. Hydraulics would solve the issue!

The gang supports should all be facing the same way. I did a rebuild in Solidworks and it was fixed - just a quirk with the mirror feature I imagine.

I have some iterating to do on the fold linkage. 1" travel out of the actuator just isn't quite enough. Have a 2" but it's quite a bit bigger. Was trying to avoid using it if possible. Made all the parts like this modular for this exact reason - just some quick linkage parts to reprint, rather than the big frame sections.

I found an 8R cab that seems to work a bit better. Had to reprint the cab base to match the new geometry.
