steering rack

At each stage of the assembly you should dry assemble the next part to ensure that the fit is good and that you are confident that you
have the part the correct way round before super gluing it in place.
Assembling the Kit
Glue the 3 rear decking supports in place as
shown. These parts are all identical and each has
a cut out for the exhaust. Ensure that the centre
support sits down properly as this one is often a
tight fit on the exhaust side.
The small and large stowage boxes can also be
glued to the chassis as shown (latch facing
outwards and at the top of the box)
* Note that it is possible to fit rolling axles by replacing the axles supplied with brass rod and tubing. Glue the tubing to the chassis and slide the brass axle
through gluing the wheels to the axle.

Drop the lower cab half onto the chassis and slide
forward as far is it will go. Glue in place.
Glue the spare wheel - detail facing down as
shown.
Note: It's advisable to paint the chassis, spare
wheel and cab interior prior to assembly as these
parts can be hard to reach with a brush later.
Set the front and rear axles in place. The rear diff
will fit better one way round than the other - dry fit
it to ensure you have it the correct way round -
recess for the prop facing forwards.
The prop fits in place as shown. If the prop
doesn't seem to fit nicely at the front of the chassis
- check that the chassis is not bent and a bend it
gently if necessary.
The front springs fit over the front axle as shown
with the tow hooks to the front.
