    Just idle curiousity, but have any of the super modders here done a Taco with rear axle steering as well as front.

    Just nosey.

    I haven't seen any, I doubt you would want rear steer unless in a buggy.

    I was watching one of the farmers use a 4 wheel steer tractor and got to wondering.

    And I drove articulated quarry dumptrucks and loaders.
    Always want to borrow a quarry dump truck and go romping for a weekend, but they are sort of hard to sneak down a highway. :p

    I agree it would be more of a "Did it for the heck of it and off road only" project than gigantically useful.

    That was a disaster correct? I heard about tons of problems from a family friend with the quadrasteer. Not to mention backing a trailer would be interesting...

    Over the summer I drive a 4 wheel steer (front only, rear only, or front and rear steer) Bobcat Toolcat and it takes a LOT of time to get used to it and honestly I would not want it in a truck.
