    Yes, but that's not all that's up with the truck. It has something that I don't think has ever been done in BeamNG before.

    (hint: video title);)

    The „edison” made me connect the dots to it being electric.
    Maybe by the 4 you mean it has 4 motors?

    Do you have all the inter-axle diffs and driveshafts installed?

    I can visibly see I do not have all diffs but I am unsure how to add them

    The parts selector should look something like this.

    The tc62 yard mule is hard to maneuver on keyboard, the turning circle is too tight and it jackknifes a lot, I would imagine it would be a lot better with a controller or wheel, am I correct?

    Hello! This 18 speed roadranger is amazing! I have just one question the range button( hold ) seems to be working just fine but the splitter (hold) button doesn't. Ive binded and unbinded it but didnt help much. Is there anything else I need to do?

    Wheel/controller does help but it still is a very light and short truck. There is a reason these are only designed for use within a yard. What can help it out is 1. Changing rear suspension to air ride
    2. Changing steering to dual arm and then tuning the steering angle down.

    The Road-Ranger needs it's own splitter hold binding which I forgot to add. It'll be in the next update

    I managed to sucessfully create a tandem axle version of the TC62 "yard mule" (which would technically now be a TC63 "yard mule"), there's a potential idea for you if that helps any

    I designed the thing so that it could be also used as a 6x4. I didn't add a config for it because 95% of yard tractors are 4x2 because in a yard maneuverability is key.

    Yeah. It took a lot of fudgery to 1. make an engine separate from the main controls 2. make it generate electricity.

    Indeed, that's why I slapped this thing together.

    Like I said, you never disappoint. Here we are again now with steerable lift axles.

    If you are taking suggestions, may I suggest quad-drive?
