Modularize modularize modularize. 6 main modules make up all 5 heavy machines.
- This means Contract First Design. This is part of Extreme Manufacturing.
Consider DfD.
Consider DfF. Lengths in units of 1' for simplicity

Close off bed of Truck - needs a gate
Make pivot supported by 4 corners of Frame Module
Modularize cab
Modularize pivot unit - right now it's one with 2 degrees of freedom - make 2 with 1 degree of freedom for modularity.
modularize engine unit in truck
Need tight clamp-on wheel mounts hubs - with Keyway - truck
