I got some projects I want to build and I need running gear parts from the Italeri M925 and the M977 kits. Does anyone have any that are in their junk pile that they can let go of? I really don't want to buy a new kit only to discard most of the of it.

mostly Frames,suspension and axles. I want to build some trailers and I would also like to build a M916A2. Wheels,I can easily out source aftermarket items for that.

You wouldn't want drive axles for that. maybe Miniman factory would sell parts to the M872 trailer kit??

Usually tey're just a cylinder with the Hubs on each end along with and the airbrakes/spring mounts.

I know about the M916 kits by Miniman, I've built a couple, but the M916A2 are Freightliner cabs and some versions have different running gear. But I may contact Gabor for parts too. The trailers I want to build will be the ones pulled buy the 5 tons, the suspension on them are the same or close to the 5 ton series trucks.

Duck, I've got both A0 and A1 wheels and some very cannabilized sprues, but your welcome to them.
