CR18 Suspenion Concept

3,459 Minnererg  3.9 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Minnererg's CR18 Custom Crawler V1.2

I have intergrated a suspension concept into the rear section of this truggy. It handles the trail much better than solid axle does. The front suspension has also been touched up, It is a little bit beefier now, enjoy!

    I dont have space to move the engine and make room for this setup to work in the front, hence why its in the rear.

    @Biscool @An2k i was replicating this and this was my reference those thin looking bars in the center, that's the drive shaft. The dif is housed up above in the center, super close to the engine, making it hard to work on sadly...

    @Biscool I saw this design on the front section of a trophy truck and took inspiration from that, Its been done before. The dif is above in the center of the rear truss.

    @An2k @Minnererg
    The only problem I see is that it would be near impossible to drive the wheels. In SP it works awesome but I think it would be hard in the real world
