The axles weren't really finished. There was some rubbing inside of the portals and against the rim. The rims only needed a bit of machining. Pretty tight,eh? :



Now I have 2 rear axles looking like this, no frictions. Pretty smooth, actually



The front parts are a different history. The steering was kind of limited because the dogbone cup was binding on the inside of these axle ends.

On the left, stock. On the right, what I had to dremel to solve the problem:


And how it looks without the axle housing:



The rear shock mounts now



Some Unimogs are like this:

my take on them:






Had to invert the location of the shock/spring because of the sxc10 axle. Uses a long scx10 spring and these nice 60mm shocks:

The chassis progressed. New crossmember, battery craddle and the rear shock mounts are in place



All the links(i know, Unimogs don't have links...)



Forgive me the lack of torquetubes with photos of ground clearance
