When my parents gave me this book in the mid 80s I wanted to build this truck.
Just like you I only had the 8860 car chassis and I bought a used 8859 in ´95.
But in the second half of the 80s I used the boogie lift for two of my truck
models which are shown below. While original trucks have double mounted wheels
at the back I copied the system 1:1 as I thought it worked properly. But then I
discovered the same issues you did while I figured out the rest of the truck
myself.
Nice to see someone has built the ‘original’ one from the book :)
