    Post 4x4 semi Discussion thread

    Modified the semi truck to be more off-roadworthy
    Changed:
    Shock/springs
    Rear suspension geometry
    Wheels
    Weight Distribution
    Added nudge bar
    Made exhaust pipe going up behind cabin (cause its cool, it also acts as a roll bar :P )
    Modified body dimensions around the rear wheels

    Still a WIP, will update it every now and then.

    one of the best off-road mods to a truck so far.. but if you go to a slight drift.. it spins aroiund and flips..

    I.e. a roll bar? (in process)

    Yeah, if you do get into a drift its generally pretty easy to correct it, but if you let off the throttle the wheels grip and flip.

    And what user error?

    Mega masive uber bump!

    I reuploaded it to the repo, same truck, just now it works on 0.36.1. Oh and i gave it less gears, more power, touch more steering lock and firmer rear tyres in an attempt to make it better at the "bajarama" track.
