    Good evening!

    I just need some insight on how difficult it would be to create a simple front counterweight mod for the T-Series. I have searched and searched and there doesn't appear to be a mod even close to that available, so I want to take making this into my own hands. I just need to know if its even doable for someone who has no experience with modding BeamNG or 3D modeling. Im sure I could figure out the 3D modeling side of it on my own though.

    I was thinking I could make something similar to the counterweight you'd see on a tractor (see pic), but mounted on the front bumper of the T-series. It could have plates you could add in the parts selector to add/remove weight. This would help keep the front wheels planted when hauling very heavy loads (100,000+ Ibs).

    If anybody could point me in the right direction or give me some tips to start out with, that would be great.

    You could use the bumper as a base and add a extra bit of jbeam with much heavier nodes.
