Hi
i just signed up for this forum/newsgroup.
mainly becuase i wanted to show off this design i've been working on. Its a
front wheel drive system that has steering and fits into a 10 stud space (8
stud steering beams)
It works quite well, has a very small amount of friction, but it has
limitations, such as becuase its lacking a differential, stationary steering
doesn't work very well. i'll work on the design to try and incorporate one
in later.
Anywho, heres the .ldr file of it.

| That is a pretty neat assembly, and one could probably reroute each wheel's geartrain to a differential somewhere in the back as well. It might be worth replacing the crown gear/16-tooth gear linkage near each wheel with a 20-tooth bevel (...) (22 years ago, 26-Sep-02, to lugnet.technic)
