Default Aeromax / Knight Hauler or Aerohauler triaxle heavy hauler.

This truck is half Aeormax and half King Hauler, I bought the cab modified already and built the tri axle suspension for it, painted the suspension white. Added a bunch of LED's, an MFU and its almost ready to go to pull my nine axle heavy hauler trailer. Total length of the rig is almost nine feet long.

Yeah, this one I bought the cab painted red. It will most likely end up some version of orange depending how long I have it.

Is it a Freightmax or a Aeroliner LOL. This body style has a lot of potential, I like it.

Cheers Chris
Thanks Chris, I think I like the Freightmax better LOL. Right now it has a one piece stainless mesh grille, I might try to go billit.

Very nice clean work
Rear deck looks great and drivetrain underneath.

I guess if I asked for a pic of truck n trailer you would need to take a panoramic shot to see the whole thing? 9 feet long? Wow lol

Thanks Mario, yeah it's long but pretty cool when moving. The rear section of the trailer has six axles, all six steer to help with the turns and one axle is driven as well.

Yes the rear Jeep has one driven axle and all steer. The back three are hooked to one servo and the front three are hooked to one servo so they can steer at different rates. The rear jeep is also mounted with a pivot in the center and I will be installing a servo so the Jeep itself can turn on the main frame to assist on tight turns.

Not sure yet, I'm thinking a big Transformer or load of pipes or a section of a building.

Would like to see a vid of it turning a corner, also how much weight those air bags can take, to me that suspension looked a bit frail for a rig of that size, hope it all work out for you with a heavy load on its back
Tim
Tim, I bought this from Joe a while back as it was on the Scale site and completed the center section and have had about 50 lbs on it with no problem. I'm still working out the rear steering on it, getting close. Will post a vid as soon as that is complete.

That body is definitely different and by different I mean awesome. It's not what I would personally build but the creative idea of it is great. I would definitely run this truck and it looks great as a heavy hauler. I would also love to see a video of that whole setup running around sometime.
