Liebherr LTF 1060 truck-mounted crane
This is the combo of the truck ready for transport. The ballast weights, which are mounted at the rear of the crane when it is in operation, are mounted behind the cab when it's in transit. The outriggers are hinged and fold alongside the chassis.
As with most of my other recent minifig scale trucks and cranes, the steering axles on the chassis work and are interconnected such that they move together, albeit at slightly different angles. It's difficult to find space for such a mechanism on a small model, but I think it's a feature that adds a lot to the look of the finished model.
