This is a bed dancer (well actually a lifter and spinner) that I built back in 98. I used a Doge Ram 1/24 kit but the only thing I used was the body, every thing ells was scratch built even the camper shell. I just wanted to show the rear suspension because I think it is unique. I have never seen a set up like the one I made 5 years ago. I used plastic square tubing to make square cylinders which work very nicely for independent suspension. Because they are square the tires will not steer they will always stay lined up with the body.

That is exactly the reason why I posted it, so I can share my ideas.

Every thing is styrene. Sometimes that stuff is hard to find but all good hobby places should carry that stuff.

 

[babybikeboi2]

whats the company who makes it called? is it evergreen? and if my hobby store doestnt have it then do u think they could order it?

 

[The Mad Modeler]

evergreen & plastistruct are 2 of the most common companies.

never seen the motors mounted like that, looks like it would work a little better if you have the space

whats nice about having them like that is you can actually screw them in instead of half assing them in like i see alot of them done.
