Hi Stuart,love your progress,I'm thinking of building a 4 by 4 army truck and wanted to ask about axles.Are ones that you used both from Tamiya high lift? Also not familiar with the term TLT axle. The front axle on your build looks like regular 1/14 truck axle,but it is steering one,how do you call it and where can I buy it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kaptain, thanks for the compliments.

I used a TLT-1 for the front axle they can be bought here:

TLT axle

or off ebay which is where I got mine, I think I paid around 55usd.

The rears are semi axles with junfac wideners.

I hope to make more progress soon, just waiting on parts to arrive

Good luck with your build an remember to post pics

Cheers
Stu
