Trumpeter strikes again! SdKfz 9/1 FAMO issues

So, I’m assembling the crane bed on my SdKfz 9/1 FAMO, and they left the axle out of the boom travel cradle! Also, the rigging instructions are the most bizzare I’ve ever seen! Thank God I kept the instructions fron the AFV Club Mercedes crane truck for reference. Hope this helps any body building this kit, Joel.

PS, they didn’t include the left rear convoy style tail light?

Hey, at least I have a spare convoy light.

That axle, though. Guess I could take one out of the myriad of other Sd.Kfz 9/1 kits I have lying around.

Dummy modeler makes a big boo-boo. Although Trumpeter has a hand in this also. I found the correct travel crutch, but, Trumpeter miss numbered it. Sorry for the vitriol, Joel

FYI, The Trumpeter rear deck mates with the Tamiya chassis with no problems!
