I was looking at the front suspension of the new 4x4 set, 8466. It's
supposed to be full 4-wheel drive so the front wheels must be driven and
steerable.
In the catalog, I can see a yellow piece that looks like:

part number: 32186
Is it this part? If so, it's not true 4-wheel drive and the front wheels are
just steerable.
I'm hoping that it's a new part and just a variation of the above mentioned
piece (32186). Hopefully it's been modified to house a u-joint so that the
wheels may be driven.
Anyone have thoughts on this, or know what the part really is?
T. J.

| I received the new S@H catalog the other day, and, as usual, browsed the photos of all the new stuff looking for evidence of new parts - especially ones with a Technic bias/use. I am intrigued by the photo of 8538. First of all, there is an (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.technic)
