ntc8733 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Well figured I would throw my hat into the mix. Enough has been said about the instructions, but I think Dave's Smugmug site with the pictures was a big help! I know in my house I've been accused of not ready instructions and with this model you've really got the read the manual versus just look at the pictures. OK, enough of that..............

Inky Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 You mean I will have to read the instruction???? Your build is looking good. I do have one question though, the seat bases....shouldn't they be swapped so the seatbelt latch is to the inside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim B Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Looks really nice, Neil. Your MaxxForce is quite nice. Shawn is correct, your seat bases are reversed. I know, you built it to the instruction booklet, but the instruction booklet is incorrect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntc8733 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 Yeah the one time I read the instructions they are wrong! I switched them around before I put the seats in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
