Beta - D-15 Rear Steer Crawler Axle

FYI this is only the third mod for any game I've ever made. And it is the first I have done my own mesh with, so there are some things I need to iron out. Criticism is welcome, but please don't be overly harsh.

I really like this mod. Is it possible to implement it on non-offroad frames?

  I've taken a look, but I'm really not sure what all I need to change. I am looking into it though.

So like with the other mod that you released. If you pay attention to how the 4 links are set up on Crawlers and Monster trucks they are more center of the axles and vehicles for the 4 wheel steering to properly work without the tires rubbing on the 4 link bars. The top bars are in the right position on the axles but on the vehicle both the top and bottom need to be moved more center of vehicle, also this is where stronger more durable sway bars come in handy, to help keep the vehicle from tipping side to side while turning, the bottom 4 links on the axles are too close to the hubs causing them to rub and collide, which creates some issues preventing the tires from being able to rotate.

(edit) Also may I suggest making a thread for this in Mod Support, that way I can take screenshots of what I'm talking about to show you the issues, and also we can better help you improve upon this mod, cause it's a really good concept, just needs some more ironing out.

  I will gladly take any help I can get. I do know of the rubbing issue, but to be honest as far as this mod goes, it is an edit of the axles as a concept by me and to see if I could learn to do it. As for this and my newest mod, this was only like the third mod for any game I've ever done, and the other is in experimental to see if I can figure out how to correctly configure jbeam files. I had asked one day on discord about if people would be interested if I posted this, and never did I think it would be this well accepted.

I found a bug: The stock rear brakes don't work when using the regular 4 Link axle. Check your jbeams and make sure you don't have any duplicate parts. However, this mod is very high quality and gets 5 stars.

  I can't seem to figure out why the brakes don't want to work. I'm currently working on a newer version of this mod with a "High Clearance" style of axle model.

I cannot figure why I can't get this to work. I cycle through the modes with no difference.

  Are you using the modes steering? There is also an independent that I included. If the tires are not straight, check to make sure you have selected a steering selection made as well.

It works alright, but without the rear sway bar, it's totally broken.

  This is for the D-Series, but once I have got this one to the way I want it, then I guess I will try the others.

Nice mod.
Just a small bug, on LWB Buggy the u-joints are not aligned with the Knuckles

P.S. Could be possible to have it also for Hopper?
Thanks
Cheers

  I'm aware of the u-joint bug, that is the mesh problem I'm having. The only thing I've been able to tackle so far is having an actual hub show up, but I'm working on it.
