Oh yeah, I forgot about those.
So, 2 tanks (accumulators), 2 like cylinders to shift. One cylinder to raise and lower the fifth wheel, and one large cylinder for something else.
Now from there gearbox picture posted elsewhere, how do they drive both sides independently with that one 4 motor gearbox? Is it one box with independent drivetrains or is it all together with a differential and use steering brakes?
<edit> And I figured out that the yellow thing behind the right side Chiaphua is just a tube for wires and pneumatic lines to pass through </edit>

I've been inspired for real engineering during the build season and on the playing field, but the inspiration I found in the pits is often for creative thinking and intuition. - artdutra04 [more]
