anyone here work with trucks ?

i have a few projects comin up, big trucks, Mercedes Actros. i was wondering if anyone here works with/around trucks like the Actros or Scania trucks or anything similar, mainly i need refrence pics of things like tag/push/lift axles.

i spent the last few days searching for these kind of pics an didn't get much at all. i've been designing these models for about 4-5 weeks now so i'll have all the drawing ready for when i start, i think i need around 5/6 kits for the projects, 3 of the same kit in one case, all for the parts.

4 kits = 1 model !

thanks in advance if anyone has any pics of refrence stuff.

Yes, I´m working with trucks to, but i´ve never build an Actros yet.
But you can ask here for reference pics:

It´s a small German model forum (English might work also :grinyes: ) and there are many good truck-builders around. Furthermore there´s a guy who´s scratch building a bus in 1:24, too.
Take a look here:
Büssing Bus (http://forum.myphorum.de/read.php?f=1941&i=15891&t=15882) You will find more on his homepage. Great skills i would say :iceslolan
Maybe they can help. ;)
