Hi Rebecca,
you have reason, the sopensione you are copied from a radio-controlled model
of the Jps: CLODBUSTER
http://www.gpracing.de/Deutsch/Monster_Trucks/New_Era/1_10/Clodbuster/clodbuster.htm
I am constructing the new lightened version that he will work very better,
when you see it you write what to me of it tasks!
Thanks for your interest!:-))))
Ciao and Merry Christmas
Andrea

Looks like he has:

4-wheel drive
4-wheel steering
...true Monster Truck manner.

Wow.  I have to say I'm very impressed by engineering of this model.  It's
reminiscent of Tamiya's radio-controlled "Bullhead" monster truck, but with
the nice fact that the motors are located within the chassis and not beside
the axles.  I still haven't figured it all out either, but one thing that
struck me, having had the chance a few years ago to examine the real Bigfoot
trucks first hand, is that I think it would be nice to operate the steering
via pneumatics or are there Technic hydraulics perhaps?
