   Nice equipment you got there. I have a MOC idea to build a large mining shovel to go with the 7344 dump truck and using the large black bucket from the 8455 backhoe loader as a bucket but I just gotta get the right wheels for it :)

Sounds awesome! I’ve long thought that the 7344 could be easily modified into a more realistic mining truck by adding stairs to the front and some other details.

As for the shovel, would it be a tracked shovel or a giant wheel loader?

If you’re going for the wheeled version, could you use the same wheels from 7344? The link above shows an older model, but it looks like both the shovel and the truck share similar-sized tires.

Can’t wait to see photos when you build it!
