WIP Beta released D-up 029

@22RLUX - Thanks! I think that many of us would like to see rock sliders, but unfortunately I don't think that they are very practical right now. I think that they'd just tend to get hung up worse than the bare truck. :-(

If any modder/whatever disagrees with me feel free to discuss it here or by PM. I'm totally open to the concept of doing these.

 

@torsion

Here's some names I've been thinking about for each part of the suspension that is a part of this mod.
Shocks: CrawlPro LLC, FlexCommander, NightStar, Overlander LLC, and KrawlStar
Leaf Springs: KrawlStar #1195, Overlander LLC #5527, FlexCommander #9848, NightStar #8142

(By the way, the numbers refer to part numbers).
That's all the names I could think of right now.

 

Made it as tall as possible and then did this:

Awesome mod. Along with the already suggested rock sliders (if they're possible/practical) it would be nice to have some high clearance/low profile offroad bumpers. Something like this:

Or this:

 

(OT) Which tires are those? Are they from the mod Nadeox made?

 

Yeah those are the 35s from Nadeox's mod.

 

Monster Truck: ON(260th post, sorry i mean 262th)

 

you should add a skidplate, like the one on the offroad bumper, without the big bulky bumper.

 

What about some sides for the wooden flatbed, for it to become a wooden tub, like the ones on old farm trucks?
A snorkel for the lifted body would be good too. I'm using the one from the roamer truck mod, but it clips on the windshield.

EDIT: Welp now we have the snorkel. So new sugestion: Can you shorten the H45 frame for using it on the van body?

 

Can you please make bigger lifts? How hard is it?

 

What about a exocage?

 

The car looks alien-ish

 

keep up the good work, would love to see what you have coming out next

 

Looks amazing, the only problem is no matter what diff you put for the front, the wheels will not spin. You can see under the truck that the front driveshaft is spinning but not the axle. Happens with premade configs and custom. Thanks

*Edit*
Was experimenting with the settings and it seems that it only glitches when 5 lug 40mm spacer wheels are selected for the front. All stock 6/ 5 lug wheels work as long as its not the spacer wheels. Great mod though, will be even better when fixed!

 

To everyone who is having issues with the front wheels not being powered after the new update, I believe the issue is caused by the transfer case type the truck defaults to. I had the same issue until I went under the parts menu, then transmissions, then a menu I believe is called transfer case will appear under transmission. Select 4WD Hi-Lo to fix the issue. Hope this helps

 

This doesn't really fix anything. When i spawn in the truck has no diffs in it but the transmission transfer case is set to 4WD-Hi-Lo. However after i add the desired diffs the truck will start to move, but if the 5 Lug 40mm spacer wheels are on the front diff malfunctions as the front drive shaft spins but the diff does not making the front wheels have no power. All other wheels work including 5 lug normal and 6/8 lug wheels. The only problem is on 5 lug 40mm spacer wheels. Thanks

Thanks for the suggestions!

@MrSir - Thanks for the review! I'm not too sure about a body drop. Can you link me to some useful and informative resources concerning IRL body drops? Magazine articles, how-to-videos, kit installation guides, etc.
