			Progress on the frame and box.....keep in mind many things changed as I continued to build, so you may see things now in the pics that have now been changed and or removed...because I didn't like something or in most cases it just didn't work....

			Changes made to the frame and swing arms in order to use a linear actuator as a hoist cylinder ( Firgelli linear actuator 12volt , 35 lbs , 9" stroke) This is one thing on this model that is not like the real deal....only a way of making it work, which is something I can live with as long as it works!!?? 
		
		
		
			(The main frame is cut from 1/2" plate and the box frame is 1/4")  |

			Front strut build pics ( about 1" travel ).....almost like the real deal...LOL...they will eventually get covered in so you don't see the springs and help keep dirt out.....
