Default Szczerba's Tow Rig
Started this build over on RCC in the multiaxle section but I'll post up some pictures here as well.

M1070 inspired in 1/10 or so scale.

Started by ripping square tube for the frame rails.

Wraith axle up front with three ax10 rear drive axles.

My 1/6th CXT based wraith for size reference.

Modified ax10 housing to get the lower link mounts on the backside too. This is a rear steer axle as well.

All three axles get the "longer beef tubes" to widen them out.

some tweaking of the cab to correct some things and armor panels made. All in rough shape for now.

And that sums up a months worth of work!

Looking good!

One suggestion though, open a photobucket account to post pics, it makes it much better to view your work.

Keep it coming

Gotcha. I have an imageshack account. I am used to posting on RCC through their site or via Tapatalk.
