Why not a HEMTT ??
 

I mean - When people talking 8x8, it's seems to be MAN or Tatra they're thinking.....so here's the story so far:

WOW :shock::shock::shock: Thats some AMAZING work..!!!! Great Job..!!! "thumbsup"

Great Start, if the rest is like this this will be AMAZING

well we can see youve got some details nailed for sure...looking forward to the body build!
i love the spring spacers, should alow soft flex, yet firm up as it compresses/ loaded with weight

If you make that the wrecker version you will be my hero. Great work so far, and I also wondered why no one ever built one. "thumbsup"

This is going to be sweet! Those center caps are badass "thumbsup"

WOW!!! nice work!
BTW, nice comp, mine is an aspire 5610 :D

Great job on the suspension man very impressive!
you should do a military jet boat in the cargo area.Thats the main thing I see being carried on them in my area..
What machine are you using to machine (lath)down the aluminum ?

:shock::shock::shock: This thing is awesome so far! By far the cleanest 8x8 suspension I've seen yet! I can't wait to see the body!

thats cool"thumbsup". cant wait to see it done;-)

Thanks all"thumbsup"


Darn - I'm not gonna be your hero then:cry:;-)
This one will be a M983 Tractor

That way I can look forward to build the 40 inches long trailer when the tractor is done :)

One idea I have is to build different interchangeable attachments....like bed - a wreckerbody - tank and so on....we'll see.


It' s a Proxxon Minilathe/mill. A x-mas present from me to me:lol: Just learning to make sometthing worth keeping...

The suspension are complete. The "leafpack" are not to be attached to the axles.
