The only other sets with 4 wheel steering that I know of is 8660
Arctic rescue unit, 8446 Crane Truck / Monster Crane Truck and 8830
Rally 6-wheeler but they all have 6 wheels total.

There is also the 8460 crane. I recently made one of these from the
Brickshelf scans (red instead of yellow :-) and while it is an excellent
model in most respects, I found the pneumatic control of the boom a bit
naff. IMHO the system used on the older 955 crane is better, if less
compact.

The alternative model in the 8460 set is great I think.

Hmmm... I've seen that model on the net only, think I'll have to build
it.

And why did my mind sing on Monty Python's "Spam"-song with the word
"Crane" instead of "Spam" when I saw your post? :)
