LEGO Technic 42242 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U 5023 – Tray Modification

As part of my mods for this set, I wanted to add the ability to easily add attachments to the rear. I tried just adding these but the location of the crane and the tray made this difficult, this has lead to this mod.

I removed the crane attachment and tray. The tray has been rebuilt and extended to the full length. Due to the extra weight, this required some changes to the lifting point and setup for the tray. The side panels were used to extend this and some black beams used to extend the width.

The next stage will be to design a rear mount, to allow the crane and other attachments to be installed.
