Hello Rusty,

Thanks for the pointer. I've looked through the handbook, but unfortunately, the
diagrams just aren't as detailed as I had hoped. What I really need most of all
is an engineering diagram of the frame, so I can get the dimensions accurate,
and then some good pictures or diagrams of the suspension. I think if I could
get the frame and suspension right, the rest of the LRV wouldn't be too
difficult to build from that point.

Hello,

I'm looking for some plans or construction diagrams for the Apollo

Lunar Roving
Vehicle (i.e. the moon buggy). I want to build a full-size replica,

so I need
some detailed diagrams with dimensions.

Does anyone have detailed diagrams, or know where I can locate them?

Thanks,

Scott


The NASA website "Apollo Lunar Surface Journal"

http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/

Has online a PDF (38-mb), "Lunar Rover Operations Handbook" written by
the Boeing Company. There are a lot of line diagrams of the LRV
included in the manual.
