Zoom in

This is my first off road trail jeep. I borrowed the model from the lego 8297 Jeep. For the record, The wheel base is a bit longer than the original jeep because i made two live steering axle under need it. The jeep is also 4 wheel steering and 4 WD. There is one XL power function motor for the driving and two MD motors for the steering. ( They steer independent from each other.) I thank everyone who put there idea's and pictures on the Internet. This gave me enough inspiration to build this jeep. I thank Lego for the model. The Jeep is heavy, about 1536 gram. But it runs. have fun ...... With regards, Ludo (L.J.)

Quoting Ean Jurgens Could u send me directions on how to build the front steering? im working on a new truck and i would like steering with for wheel drive i have the back done i just need the front i have looked around and your steering is the best.

Thanks for the complement. I you want to use our truck for trail riding then look at my red jeep. This is a better one for front drive and steering. It's stronger and can handle rougher terrain.. For the other steering, the best picture i have are at my mocpages. Some things i chanced later on. Look at the little movie for closeups. red jeep http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/183165 Greets Ludo

Indrukwekkend, je hebt praktisch alleen de buitenkant van het model bewaard, de inwendige 'aanpassingen', zeg maar totale veranderingen zien er complex en ingenieus uit, leuk gedaan, de jeep kan veel gevarieerder terrein aan nu :)

Great work. It's nice to see some custom suspensions rather than the prefabricated ones by LEGO.

Super add ons. I saw some trail jeeps like Lego vehicles, but this one is in a sense very funny to look at, because it's a custom modified 8279! I'm a fan!

Very nice looking truck. I really like the suspention / steering combination on both the axles. Personally, I would connect the two steeringsystems because it's kinda hard to synchronize both wheels, which in case makes the car go wander. But it's still great you made it work.
