Doglover 27 Posted May 2 So - I have a Grand Hauler and Fuel Tanker on order but today I got to play with a real Big Boy! Yes I'm in the industry - we make the drive axles, steer axles and drive shafts for these Kenworths here in Australia. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re-Bugged 9325 Posted May 2 Nice 👍🏻. I saw a triple drive Peterbilt passing through Rockhampton Queensland a little while back, maybe it was something you had put together?? Kalari also use a lot of triple drives for their Roadtrains carting coal in Moura, Bluff & Blackwater mines. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gebbly 547 Posted May 2 Just noticed the other truck in the back ground. So you produce both variants? I had seen the flat nose in the UK and the long nose in the US. (I'm sure there is a proper term other than long-nose ) But Aus uses both variants? Thats interesting. Are all the wheels on that truck powered? And yes please Tamiya, a new RC kit with that many wheels please Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
