Trophy Truck Suspension Tutorial - Trailmakers

[@wesleyhsu5828]

If there is a problem with the rear suspension being too loose, please try setting the strength of the two yellow hinges in the middle of the two inclined connecting rods to 10

[@crazyjt0891]

Mine is vary shakey is there anyway I can fix that

[@wesleyhsu5828]

@@crazyjt0891 Can you elaborate on the problem you are experiencing?

[@austinbraden9752]

On the stand in air the wheels just wobble away sometimes bind noise and break aswell

[@wesleyhsu5828]

@@austinbraden9752 Does it also have problems when it's put down? I encountered a similar issue, and it was caused by one of the steering hinges still being set to a strength of 100.

[@Rocket-xm9oy]

I don’t know the configs for the red and yellow/orange hinges are and I don’t know how to build the rods in the centre

[@HomeSlice4.0]

That rear suspension is actually insane, I’ve tried to make a 4 link solid axle rear end, but could never get it to flex properly, this tutorial helps a lot!

[@wesleyhsu5828]

Thanks, expect your new suspension

[@volfit727]

I've always wondered how the trophy truck suspension works, especially the rear, so I can build it in different games. This video helps a lot, thank you.

[@raulcorral2165]

After a week messing around, and seeing it's very hard to improve a trophy truck setup more than what you actually did in this tutorial, I started making variations of the front suspension, and I can say that it's great for 8x8 or 10x10 vehicles. It's not just great; it's like the smoothest thing I’ve seen. Of course, it’s not intended for a very fast vehicle, but for a powerful all-terrain purpose. It literally eats barrels like nothing (i´m using monster wheels so basically everything the same diameter or less its butter). Thanks for sharing this awesome and inspiring build and all the knowledge you put into it.

[@smasherrr07]

It's about time someone made a video about this

[@hgmorgan923]

This is frickin awesome, I was trying to do a similar design of my own but I thought that the control arm would interfere with the hinges movement. You should try to build a I beam truck next that is my ultimate final boss of trying to get the suspension working correctly.

[@EnderSackboy]

I had tried building this kind of suspension before but I was using heli engines for the tilting just like those yellow hinges. It worked but was no where near as smooth as your's. Well done on getting all the arms to move together without any collision issues.

[@Ignacio-Moonsilver]

I had fun building this tutorial, i honestly never knew how this was possible and i'm happy you did an actual tutorial instead of just saying " you can download a base of the suspension in the workshop " because you learn from the tutorial but you don't from just downloading it I also had to fix the rear being loose but i read your comment and fixed it, but i still got this one question: Where am i supposed to start building the 'car' from? i see no-where to start building without messing up the suspensions

[@wesleyhsu5828]

There shouldn't be any issues with the cockpit. As for the hood, I built it as an "open hood" first and then closed it to avoid direct contact with the front suspension.

hey man if we could get a body design tutorial that would be great. also i keep making iterations i keep having the same problem the truck gets into a sort of death wobble while driving straight on a flat road

Dude yes, thank you 😫🤙

[@ashtonandaiden]

Great vid and I haven’t even watched it yet

[@alexls1923]

Is it possible to replace some of the hinges in the rear suspension with trailer hinges or are they there to make sure the suspension doesn’t travel too far in any direction?

[@JoelMiller-yp6mv]

How did you get the front tires so firm and straight. Mine are very wobely and if i take a turn too sharp it bends underneath my car. If i put the strength of the hinges higher the wheels are too firm and won't turn with the suspention. Anny tips?

[@thanansawancoleman3963]

Tutorial for the racing shell plz?

[@Karottenkopf154]

Do the hinges have different Setting based on the Colors ?

[@LeviLoke-oi9mi]

Tried the build, alight issue the truck doesnt stay stationary it veers off slightly at 1km/h lol.

[@wesleyhsu5828]

Unfortunately, this seems hard to avoid. lol

[@Jesus555XD]

man, thats amazing. could we get it on the workshop??

[@PATRIOT33581]

@@wesleyhsu5828 When will it be on workshop. I have been trying to build this for about 30 minutes and I cant get the front suspension down. Can you help?

[@PATRIOT33581]

The problem is that one of the front suspensions work perfect but the other one goes down like 1% of the way. I checked all of the hinges and they are all set at 0 strength. and the springs are at 0.50 strength.

[@CaptainBigBlock]

if i was wanting to go for a 6x6 style what would be my best option for the middle axle or would copying the front to the middle with slight tuning be good enough? (if you do have any other TM creations like this to do tutorials could we perhaps see more in the future? understandable if not, i struggle to create irl suspension builds, closest thing I've gotten to real life is Semi realistic Lowrider Suspension... which isnt very stable sometimes)

[@wesleyhsu5828]

It looks like a scaled-down version of the rear suspension, where the left and right wheels are fixed on the same axle. cdn.integy.com/gallery-images/C25853GUN_10.jpg?class=stpgl

[@wesleyhsu5828]

here may be more tutorials in the future, but they won't necessarily be about suspension.

[@CaptainBigBlock]

@@wesleyhsu5828 Amazing, I'll use that as reference when building the middle axle

[@CaptainBigBlock]

@@wesleyhsu5828 understandable, will be looking forward to any potential tutorials you may have in mind

[@ProbablyWorking]

So I’ve made my own copy of this. Followed the tutorial perfectly and it feels good. However where the rear centre linkage connects to the rear axle I’m have a problem with the linkage being floppy from side to side.. I’m not sure if this is because I’m on Xbox so I can’t get the values for the pistons to be perfect or if I’m missing something.. any advice would be great! I notice in the video around 5 minutes in the little cut scene of the rear suspension in action shows yours to be fairly stiff there.. mine wants to flip flop on the centre hinge

[@wesleyhsu5828]

@@ProbablyWorking Try set strength the yellow hinge between the two link to 10, there should be no problem with your build. I missed this part in the video.

[@guspao23]

I just posted pistons with the pc settings on the Xbox work shop, the name is "PC pistons" my name tag is the same as the youtube one.

[@guspao23]

hope it helps

[@Rocketcraft7167]

Can I have tut for the body pls

[@theSgamer69]

So i followed the same directions and built the suspension but when i go to drive, The back suspension waves around until it flips me over. I have no clue whats wrong. Are the settings for steering hinges/ suspension different from the front?

[@HomeSlice4.0]

Thats weird, make sure your steering hinges are on the same orientation as the video says, and keep them all at 0 strength

[@theSgamer69]

@@HomeSlice4.0 do the arrows matter as long as the hinges are up and down/side to side?

[@HomeSlice4.0]

The arrows need to be the same as shown in the video, the arrows indicate which way the hinge is going, hope this helps

[@theSgamer69]

@@HomeSlice4.0 ok but if the hinge is horizontal, does it matter that the green is on he left and the red Is on the right or can it be either way as long as it's horizontal

@@theSgamer69 Yes, as long as it’s horizontal, the colors of the arrows don’t matter

What block do you use for the headlights? And instead of my rear suspension being floppy it’s insanely stiff (I’m on Xbox not too sure if that helps)

[@wesleyhsu5828]

Emergency light

[@wesleyhsu5828]

The strength of the steering hinge might not be set to 0, or the spring might be too stiff, or some components might be stuck.
