     (...) It could, but I don't think so. Suspension and a pneumatic pump on top does not seem like a very good mix, but who knows? /Tobbe (21 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

     (...) There could still be a springless tilting suspension, the kind which always keeps all four wheels on the ground, even with some uneven surface. This is the kind you would typically see on the front wheels of a real vehicle like this. I don't (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: new 2003 sets: 8455 —Tobbe Arnesson
     (...) Yeah, you're right! There seems to be a ball joint towards the chassis which don't make sence if it don't have suspension. (...) The old photo is of no help other then to verify the front wheel steering. /Tobbe (21 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

   (...) (URL) point was all of these solutions is impossible with the new cylinder since it lacks the 2 x 2 "brick" in the bottom. /Tobbe (21 years ago, 6-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

        Re: new 2003 sets: 8455 —Tobbe Arnesson
   (...) What I meant as impossible is the two solutions found abouve since you no longer can attach studs on the bottom of the piston. I'm sure the pistons still can be attached back-to-back in another manner, hence more difiicult. But who knows? (...) (21 years ago, 7-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)
