    Hey Gabe I just noticed the U Bolts on the D15 and the H series rear axles are incredibly oblongish, they do not contact with the axle and end up having a huge allowance front to back which would make it quite floppy IRL. Nothing really important at all just thought I'd point it out in case your ever touching stuff up with them.

    I just checked and it's a flexbody mapping issue. The mesh is fine in 3ds Max, but for some reason it gets distorted/separated from the axle in-game. I'll look into fixing it, thanks for noticing :)

    Hey all you 'Muricans, is the word "Fullsize" an American phrase? I'm from Australia and I've never heard that word before.

    It means that it's big. Hence it being full-size.
    EDIT: For further understanding:
    Not fullsize:

    My group at school got in trouble for putting that on a powerpoint for our project.
    On topic: I guess full size means "not small". Like a not full size pickup is a Ford Ranger, and everything half ton and up is a full size truck I guess.

    This article should explain everything: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truck_classification

    The D15 is a Class 2. The H45 is a Class 4. The T75 is a Class 8. There may also end up being a single rear axle T-Series called the T65, which would be a Class 7. If I made a D35 (and I plan to eventually), it would be Class 3.

    Fullsize just means that it's not a compact. But generally doesn't refer to anything larger than an average vehicle. For instance, a 1990 Ford Ranger is a Compact pickup. A 1990 Ford F150 is a Full size pick up. A 1995 Dodge Neon is a compact car. A 2013 Doge Charger is a full size car, etc...

    In derbies, as far as cars are concerned (not trucks) Generally anything with less than a 104-108 inch wheel base (Rules vary among shows) is considered compact. Anything larger is considered full size.

    Hi, here one incorrect node place on Gavril D15 and this cause U Bolts distortion.
    Here is the solution
    pickup_suspension_R.jbeam
    {"group":"pickup_leaf_R"},
    ["ax3r", -0.70, 1.387, 0.41],
    ["ax3l", 0.70, 1.387, 0.41],
    Change the value to
    {"group":"pickup_leaf_R"},
    ["ax3r", -0.70, 1.487, 0.41],
    ["ax3l", 0.70, 1.487, 0.41],
    No more distorsion:)

    Haha yeah, at first glance I thought the newer Ranger in the photo was a Mazda too. The one I definitely knew was the last photo which is of a Holden Rodeo
