Tristar 1/35 Pz.IV Running Gear Set 2 #042 VS Tristar German Pz.IV Wheel Set #014
Posted by markgloper on Thursday, July 12, 2012 11:06 AM

I just purchased a Tristar 1/35 Pz.IV Running Gear Set 2 #042 and was comparing it's parts with those contained in the Tristar 1/35 German Pz.IV Wheel Set #014.  I wanted to determine if the Set 2 #042 was more appropriate for the Pz.IV F.

I can find no difference between the sets except the #042 contains bent springs for what they call:  "Moveable Bended Suspension".

Has anyone compared these kits and found one more appropriate than the other for the PZ.IV F?  Which one is more appropriate and why?

Thank you for any assistance.

#042 would be more appropriate for the Ausf. F.   That set seems to have been recently remarketed by Tristar as the "early/mid" one.  Good luck!
