FH16 tractor conversion in Big Rigs and Scale Armour Posted May 10, 2023 Hi, first thanks for letting me join this forum, long time visitor and finally decide to sign up XD I have some experience in scale model (1/35 military and Gundam) and diorama but never big scale RC truck, and always tempted to have my first truck I love to have a 3rd gen FH16, however, it seem only rigid is available. I have done some googling and download some building instructions I believe there are two way I could do it 1. FH16 Timber Truck, then sorce a shorter chassis rail, prop shaft, fifth wheel assembly and may be side shirt 2. Any tractor unit, then sorce a FH16 complete cab Solution 1 seem more feasible, as I could not found any FH16 cab sold anywhere? Or am I completely out of league as I never build any large scale RC or any better solution? Thanks 1
