Default M35A2 Crew Cab #2 with rear steer
I though I would start a new thread on my second build and post a few pics up along the way. This model will be pretty much the same except this one will have rear steering. I have an air cylinder set up to lock the rear axel in the straight on postion for safe driving. It has a micro switch to indicate when the pin is locked, then it will send power the rest of the system to operate the hyd. power pack. Should get the cab and all the steps and fuel tank finished tommorow. Then I will finsh up the rear steer system and post some more pics of that.

Tell us about your rear axle! Is is a front axle turned around, or did you modify a straight axle?

I'm thinking of doing the 4 wheel steering on the War Pig, so any advise would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

I think that the axle is mounted normal, just in the back. That would make sense because the Rockwell front and rear axles are almost identical.

Yea, thats the air cylinder that locks th axel tm, and the rear axel is just a new gov. rebuilt unit I just got a bunch of these in. It is sitting just like the front one with the tie rod in the back. The axels were rebuilt in 1989 I am curious to see if the wheel cylinders and all the seals will be working after sitting in a crate for 21 years unused, you just gotta love miltary surplus.
