I'm considering going back to do some more work with my Tiger. So watching your build is definately making me want to get on and do it.

installed a Taigen (was Asiatam) recoil unit, bit of a fiddley job (the mantlet comes with the kit)
i bought the Mato BB barrel first, before i realised it was the bb version then bought the Taigen recoil version barrel with the brass muzzle brake
put a small sleeve in the mantlet to keep the barrel centered
i had raise the mantlet up as it was sitting to low on the turret and cut a new hole for the elevation arm
then had to fine trim the recoil unit lever so when you fired the gun it would recoil straight away, as was it moved around for a few seconds before it would release the barrel
cheers

i used a dremmel and ground out the bottom of the axel groove in the side of the hull and extended t by about 3.5mm
these pics shows the HL suspension as is
next pics shows modded axel holes
bit hard to see but the axels are lower now
it certainly makes a difference
cheers
