Off Roader truck 8297 in yellow
 

I build the new technic LEGO Off Roader truck, set 8297, in yellow Bricks. I love yellow. It is my favorite LEGO brick color. The color of bricks I own most. However, there were some part not available in yellow and other yellow parts I didn't have enough in stock.
















If you want to build this car without buying the 8297 set you need to download the building instructions at www.lego.com:
- BI - 8297 - MODEL 1 - 1/3 - 4536946.pdf
- BI - 8297 - MODEL 1 - 2/3 - 4536950.pdf
- BI - 8297 - MODEL 1 - 3/3 - 4538812.pdf

And you need quite a lot parts! Some are very new types. You may not have all the parts jet, so you need to buy them elsewere (www.bricklink.com?).  But looking at the part list (it is in the last instruction book) you may want to buy this set anyway!



















This rugged off-road truck use a built-in motorized Power Functions (small electric Motor 9V Power Functions, partno:  58120c01) to raise and lower its ground clearance, operate the front-mounted winch, or turn on the bright LED headlights (Light Unit Power Functions with Black PF Connector Lead, partno: bb338c01).

A gearbox made of a technic Changeover Catch, partno: 6641 and a technic Driving Ring, partno: 6539) is used to operate the front winch and the variable suspension. The electric Pole Reverser (Polarity Switch with Black Lead, Power Functions Complete Assembly, partno: bb339c01) is used to choose the correct direction of the PF motor.

It is possible to open the trunk and hatch and the gull-wing doors moved fantastic by the technic Shock Absorber (10L Damped, Complete Assembly, partno: 32181c02) and the truck has a V8 engine with moving pistons!


















This off roader uses a new kind of technic Gear Differential with inner Tabs, 28 Bevel Teeth, partno: 62821 and a new kind of technic Universal Joint, 3L, partno: bb320 (1L shorter then the old ones!). 














For the suspension there is a new technic Steering Arm 5.5 x 2 with Towball Socket Rounded Chamfered, partno: 57515 used in combination with a technic Steering Gear with 4 Ball Joints, Complete Assembly, partno: x873c01 and a technic Steering CV Joint, partno: bb75.














The car is driving on XXL wheels: Wheel 56mm D. x 34mm Technic Racing, with Black Tire 94.8 x 44 R Balloon (44772 / 54120), partno: 44772c02.
