Volvo F88 concrete mixer
 
My volvo F88 3d printed cab (not made by me).
the concrete mixer is a motorized bruder, the truck is a 6x2 configuration with lifting rear axle.

Nicely done! Any details on your drum rotation setup?

That's a very good build - smooth and interesting. Is the rear lift axle common in Norway on a 3 axle truck? Don't think I've seen that configuration before.
Excellent!

the drum could be rotated by a handle before it was motorized, so the guy that built this just removed the manual handle and put the sprocket that connects to the drum on the shaft of a geared motor.


as for the rear liftaxle: this is the most used setup for a truck in norway, it saves weight over the 6x4 setup.
rear lift axle comes in both twin wheel and single wheel setup, with single wheels you can also have steering on the real lift axle.
