Some will work others will not. The cab and front have not been changed so all mods will work there, as for the bed the short frame beds are not compatible with mod beds, the long frame beds are compatible with all mods. I can not guarantee that the swivel will still work properly with all mods however.
The idea is awesome, the execution very good in basis! It is sturdy enough, only a small amount of sagging. I ran over it, i crashed it, dropped it: the swivel endured! Bravo!
Some things that might be added, to improve handling:
- a sort of swaybar principle, to dampen the sudden movement. this swaybar will also counteract some of the 'torque swivel' , so the use of low rev power diesels does not instantly put me on my roof while crawling up a rocky slope...
- a way to set the amount of degrees that it can swivel (10, 15, 20 etc.)
- A special bed with some rounded edges around the swivelpoint, so it doesn't get stuck while crawling in extreme angles...Sucks to get stuck .
I feel that these additions will make your mod complete, and perfect.
Thank you very much for the feedback.
I'll work on including multiple lengths of chain limiters so you have more choice when it comes to the maximum angle it can rotate.
As for the dampening or swaybar I'll take a look at what would work and make sense in this situation because I don't think it is something that was implemented in the original design.
Thanks again for your suggestions and I'll see how I can implement some in the coming update.
This is absolutely amazing. A suggestion though, it's kind of an odd idea and probably not that useful for any applications in beam, but do you think you'll add a swivel frame for the D-series offroad frame at one point? (The prerunner/baja/trophy truch/crawler etc frame)
been wanting a power wagon for a long time, even tried to make a swivel frame myself, but it was too floppy, didnt really work properly, gave up too early. i still wanna make a power wagon tho
but dayum this is nice asf dude.
great work for a first mod!
