With this project we are taking chain drive to the next level and seeing how well it works with 4WD and large 32" tires. I've had great success with the chain drive setup on the CBR1000 buggy so with this project I want to build it again but this time we are making it 4WD with big 32" tires and its a two seater. we are using a T90 transmission as a transfer case to give us high/medium/low range and reverse.

You said it Chris..."This thing looks awesome!" Your fabrication skills have advanced to amazing. Absolutely brilliant build.

@jamaicatvtv4215 6 месяцев назад

Chris the reason why you stand out is your never afraid to cut out hours of work and change things to make it stronger or just look better. Doors look amazing, whole thing looks amazing. G'day from Australia.

@dukiemoto8676 Год назад

That frontend cross shock mount design is aesthetically on point. Absolutely nailed it!👏

@BUILDNIGHT Год назад

Best features of this project yet…. The doors and the front cross-braced suspension…. What a machine…. You’ve come a long way since the 2-speed minibike, Chris!

@onebigj4u Год назад

I haven't read all the comments so I may be repeating BUT, I would swap the front shocks and have the hoses/fittings going to the inside of the frame to protect them against rollovers, tree limbs, obstacles and protect those reservoirs. Just a thought. Looks absolutely amazing, you do awesome work.

@MaNNeRz91 Год назад

This thing's going to be an absolute beast! I can't wait til we get to the engine part 😁😁😁😁 doors turned out awesome too. You could do such a simple handle and cable latch system with a sprung rod or flat bar into a hole or slot. I'd probably run the shock reservoirs under the frame too just incase 👀 it would protect them from branches any unwarranted contact

@garrettschenker566 Год назад

Things sick that front suspeinion is really transforming that thing into something incredible I still can’t believe you don’t have tool company’s giving you anything you want and helping you build your dream shop. Your an amazing fabricator and deserve some tool company’s backing you. Its truly awesome to see how you create with how little space you have

@kenjohnson5498 Год назад

The doors turned out sweet! Time will loosen them up but having it stay in place is even better imo.

@dillonoliver27 Год назад

An once that happens use wrangler door straps

@sophakpeth4346 Год назад

Of all the channels like this, this is by far the best build right now.

@seancarter1275 Год назад

Doors turned out great and the trailing arms look like they could survive a nuclear blast!

@GaisaSanktejo Год назад

Its a shame I can only give one thumbs up! Those doors gave you the first well deserved thumbs up 👍 Then you took it to a new level with the new suspension and frame! 👍👍 Keep up the good work Chris, you're an inspiration!

@Lordgaming16028 Год назад

I've been watching you for about 3 yrs, I've never commented on a yt vid before in my 10+ yrs of being on yt and I must say you are awesome, all of your builds I've watched including this one are never disappointing. Keep doing what you love to do and plz never stop, your downright a dam good man brother. I wish you nothing but an awesome life 💪💪

@williamlanphar630 Год назад

Super cool treatment on the upper shock mounting !

@jecyltrazona8701 Год назад

I'm so excited to see this running. I wish I also have the resources, tools, and skills to make one. I've been watching this channel for like 6-7 years now. Awesome! Your biggest fan from the Philippines!

@douweschoonderwaldt7898 Год назад

This thing is becoming to look HOT! Weldone on the doors AND the front-end!

@BradahBri Год назад

It’s been cool watching your progression in fabbing in relation to tooling. Need a tool, make a tool and the right specialty tool saves hours in labor!

@optimalprimidius7295 Год назад

I still vote for a zombie apocalypse buggy! The doors are the best add I've seen on any build yet. You're good at it!

@DiHandley Год назад

That front suspension setup looks magic! Lots of travel.

@dougtravins9624 Год назад

Chris is a metal-artist and craftsman!

@nomad8426 Год назад

Chris don't ever doubt you engineering and fabrication skill. Most people would take the easy route. You always take the more complicated but better route. Awesome work.

@johnrichardson4327 Год назад

A great video as always! I laughed when you rolled the cheap shocks off the table into the trash.

@metaldog7128 Год назад

Love the removable doors, it’s started looking mean 💪😎

@faulknerfixesall Год назад

Nice job Tig welding those door hinges with even heat distribution. hinges still work perfect.

@davidspilman531 Год назад

I really enjoy your channel and your not Cocky or advertise all the time your a Great down to earth guy !!! I’m 71 I wish I was your age again Enjoy life to the fullest

@chasinfish8279 Год назад

This is turning out to be more of an ultra 4 build. Love it even more. Oh and killer job on the swing arms and front end work

@charlesirby9222 Год назад

The side profile reminded me of a trophy truck! ... It sure is looking sweet! ...😎👍

@xpndblhero5170 Год назад

O hell yeah, I'm liking how it looks w/ the X bracing across the front, that's really cool.... Can't wait to see it on all 4 tires and rolling, it's gonna look so mean when it's in its final stance. Awesome work man.... 😁👍

@jeremysharp5436 Год назад

I have been wondering how you were going to do the door hinges, and I'm super impressed with those. But I got to say I'm really blown away with how that front suspension cross-bracing looks!

@richardormrod5758 Год назад

looking fab man love that front end and the shocks

@takerkanefan108 Год назад

The front shock cross bracing looks so amazing, great job on that. Maybe you could add the spare tire to the very back? Then that way it could also act as a rear bumper?

@LoneWolf0648 Год назад

this thing is becoming a beast, great job. i would consider adding a cross bar between the tops of the front shocks because they will put a LOT of squeezing force on those bars and a cross bar would get rid of that while possibly being part of the top radiator mount.

@big0trav Год назад

You are one of the best fabricators I have watched. I love seeing everything you build.

@tgsubie Год назад

Dude this thing is awesome. When you were moving the wheels around up front to get the new bars in down bottom, we really got to see what it would look like smashing woops and articulating. This builds great. I also am a massive supporter of a turbo. Youre gonna want this thing to make stupid power, not just plenty of power. You should try to get this thing eventually into a big name race. Like a vegas to reno nv poker run or something. Maybe hooptie x, the mint 400, etc.

@bryduhbikeguy Год назад

"King of the Hammers" would be a Great showcase for this.

@neonnerd1364 Год назад

Not much is more satisfying than brand new parts fresh out of the box.

@theziggx Год назад

Wow it’s really starting to look awesome, I love the cross braced shock mounts !

@davestevens4263 Год назад

Yes those are as sweet as his doors .

@nicolec7290 Год назад

Hope people realize how much work you put in.

@kuhlay Год назад

10:08 mount the spare tire over the front end! It’ll throw some weight over the front to slightly even out the weight distribution. I have a feeling this thing is going to be wheelie happy. You could even try and recess the width of the tire below the “hood line” for better visibility

@bryduhbikeguy Год назад

The roof..the roof...the roof would be 'fire'...(Couldn't help it.)It's out of any view.

@Ghryst Год назад

@@bryduhbikeguy the roof would add to instability. over the front tyres is how it should be from a physics perspective. i like the recessed hood idea, it lowers that gravity some more, but the shocks are the high point already and cant be moved, so, it makes sense to mount a spare to that point

@eriklarson9137 Год назад

Watch some off-road centered channels. Let me know how many vehicles you see with a spare on the front. The number will be less than zero.

@kuhlay Год назад

@@eriklarson9137 there aren’t very many rear engine trophy trucks. Side by sides, sand rails, buggies, etc being the only exceptions, although technically not trophy trucks. I only suggested a front mounted tire setup to bring more weight over the nose of the vehicle. Any jumping or high speed whoops should buck the front end up and cause instability issues. Yes, the tire would be a big obstacle to get the frame around and will inhibit vision to the nose of the vehicle, but at higher speeds you shouldn’t be watching the nose of your vehicle, instead you should be looking ahead. I understand that it’s a super awkward position, but this is an always build.

@Ghryst Год назад

@@eriklarson9137 because those cars are not as rear heavy as this buggy is going to be.. as it stands, he doesnt even intend to skin it. also, those other cars are not as small as this one, which will make a difference - tis will have a huge power-to-weight ratio, wihth huge tyres, and not much other weight at all. even if its not as powerful as those other cars by pure HP. this thing is going to slam its hood ojn the ground behind it if he doesnt address tht issue. he mentioned a radiator, but i dont think 10kg of aluminium and water will help much. on top of all that, he intends to rock-climb with it? thats exactly where you need very even weight distribution. your fallacy of false equivalence is invalid. #BasicPhysics

@colbygillette Год назад

10:00 you should round the back of the frame to the curve of the tire and drop the tire down almost behind the motor

@raynyhus2026 Год назад

Definitely, it'd give a desert racer look.

@TCool-in2to Год назад

I think that’s a great idea. He doesn’t need to see out the back anyways

@Ghryst Год назад

he wants to crawl rocks in it, tyre should be over the front wheels in a rear-mounted engine setup.. needs to spread that weight or he'll roll backwards down some boulders. personally, thats what i'd do, and i'd chop off the extra length at the rear, leave just enough to protect the engine and maybe mount a 2-way aerial back there

@bigcaputo09 Год назад

You're a freaking great fabricator!! I love watching you're builds come together!! Can't wait to see this one rip!!

@davidspilman531 Год назад

That front end looks Great like the arched front is Awesome

@asayoasayo5746 Год назад

I can hardly wait to see you driving that guy.

@darthgbc363 Год назад

For a softer spring rate - move the mounting points of shocks closer to pivots of suspension arms or lower the top mount points.

@naseweis0815 Год назад

Really nice. Just a good meant advice, please consider the massive amount of heat the radiator ist throwing at the interior when you place it in the front. Maybe you can Install a windscreen and guide the hot air above your head. Keep on going, awesome job 😊

@pwbagpuss Год назад

I've got to admit, this looks pretty awesome!

@dannyelliott8391 Год назад

Love following this build. You should check latch mechanisms from a RZR or X3. I think they’d work good with your setup even tho those are usually Suicide doors. Also, as an X3 owner the doors just flapping open or close sucks. A lot of guys put small shock dampeners on them.

@dirtydsrc Год назад

Lookin' good bud. Spare tire. Better to have it and not need it, then need it and not have it. The tube you have the shock reservoirs sitting on now, I would, if I were doing this build, but I'm not, mount the reservoirs on the inside edge of that tube and the res line under the cross tube to protect them. Awesome looking build.

@Humboldt710 Год назад

I love your fabrication style. Cheers this little beast is coming together now!

@nicolec7290 Год назад

Shocks are awesome. Cross bars came out good.

@leetucker5788 Год назад

I love watching some quality fabrication work.

@joeshmo4067 Год назад

I'm beyond pumped for this build I've been following you since the cbr 1000 build I'm still baffled at what you pump out of that tiny garage! Keep up the good work you keep inspiring me to fabricate more and more one day I'll be making a cross cart and stealing some of your design ideas!

@nicolec7290 Год назад

I put your video on pause & just stared at engineering Incredible

@tristanmcnabb2741 Год назад

Wow 😳 cool stuff Chris 🦇👌 the doors are looking really good.wow that is a lot of work.looking allsome 😁🎉🌟 keep up the good work from cruzerman👍

@craigmacewan2037 Год назад

Drill and tap a grease fitting into the hinges so they will move more freely. Love the doors looking good.

@sheikhhansvonblunderbuss Год назад

So satisfying seeing the doors swing!

@nathaniellangston5130 Год назад

This thing looks DOOOPEE!! I'd kinda like to see a structural analysis for this thing. I feel like it'd do pretty good!

@larrydavidson3402 Год назад

Those doors are perfect. That is one fine looking build and each build you do just keeps getting better and better.

@JoelArseneaultYouTube Год назад

Great video as always. I wouldn't worry about (or try) setting the suspension sag unless you have either 2 people in it, or 300+ of sandbags or something... I looks like it's going to be great.

@markfranks48 Год назад

Looking good can't wait till its running keep making the videos its cool seeing your talents progress especially your machining

@ThePippin89 Год назад

The location of the reservoirs is in the direct firing line of a rock coming off the front tyres. If you are going to leave them there, then some shielding might not be a bad idea.

@yoshigust Год назад

You could put the spare tire on the roof. Might make it top heavy idk.

@mickblackman9029 Год назад

Love the look of the front end . Can’t wait to see this finished

@SomeBoredGuy69 Год назад

This thing is shaping up nice! 👍 I think it is time! There are only so many variations of a chain drive vehicle. You have done them all. The next project needs to be a FULL ON off-road vehicle. A proper transmission and transfer case. Powered by a boosted Honda K24 or bigger. You are ready for it! 👍 😁

@justinarseneau4450 Год назад

part 12 and its arleady looking so good nice build👍👍

@foxwolfworkshed5080 Год назад

love the sfx and my literal reaction to the thumbnail: "THAT is beauty"

@BraxxJuventa Год назад

Thanks for filming Chris. 👍😁👍😁

@captnjaygreybeard6394 Год назад

The front turned out awesome, great work!

@MML66 Год назад

I am looking forward to the driving experience and how the suspension system and weight distribution will be. I hope that you will not face any problems. Good luck.

@patiencejoshuagroves7336 Год назад

Dampening and valves can be changed ... too adjust the shocks ... The build is looking awesome, the shocks just stepped it up...

@marcoknives Год назад

Nice job! You should put the spare tire on the roof!

@phillipdellecoste8289 Год назад

Love the Front shock top supports!!! If you are going to be Rock Crawling, a Fan will need to be installed to keep the Radiator cool anyways so it would be a lot less plumbing to install it at the Back near the Engine.

@kasper.4133 Год назад

Been waiting all week can't wait thanks for the great entertainment and inspiration wouldn't have started doing my favorite activitie without you and your content have a great day keep up the great work

@tearoffabite Год назад

This car is sick. You just get better every day. Go Chris.

@johnbest4320 Год назад

It really is starting to look awesome really like your choice of shocks & love how you mounted them & done the bracing & the extra adjustable reservoirs they really are a nice touch your welding skills really is impressive super nice im really excited to see the finished article & see it in action brilliant content have a marvellous evening & a great start to your week 👊💨

@kevinvanderhoef7806 Год назад

Yes. You need the spare, it would look so much better!

@WireWeHere Год назад

There's an opportunity while a swingarm's on the bench to check the potential flex with small forces and small measurements. With this information it may be easier to picture the minimal bracing required. On the bench part so old project consequences don't hurt as much. Well done on your videos. Your volume stability has always been a plus above some that crank it up for musical interludes.

@Ntwitu2 Год назад

I watched you design the cross bracing for the trailing arms and just keep thinking, man your one talented bloke.

@papatomsthoughts Год назад

Loving this build. Front looks awesome, good cross bracing.

@Rattus-Norvegicus Год назад

Your fabrication skills are getting good.

@kzarnold3678 Год назад

You could add grease zerk fitting into the door hinges that should keep them from binding and stop the dirt and water from getting in once you get out on the trail

@Salmonaxe223 Год назад

You really killed it with this episode! I can’t believe you got so much done! Project is turning out awesome. Very Ultra Four in its look. Which honestly I think is cooler than a trophy truck. Can’t wait to see more progress.

@martinutasi7857 Год назад

0:33 This scene was pretty good, You can use this edit style more! Maybe You can put the spare tire on the top? Maan, those shocks looks really cool!

@1911Earthling Год назад

Why isn’t this guy being educated. He is one hell of a mind. Extremely well spoken with clear concise information. Somebody in industry should be using this guy for bigger things. His talent is being wasted on great toys.

@michaelcrebbin7328 Год назад

Nice chris love the door design looks sick suits the flow of the build 👍👍👊

@reddenley9822 Год назад

I think the doors are sweet. Looks plenty room enough

@austinconklin08 Год назад

I'd suggest standing the spare upright behind the engine in the tail section of the frame similar to how 1:1 trucks/buggies run them and build a cradle for it with a strap

@garydavidson02 Год назад

I have not seen this many braces since 6th grade. Cross Brace King. Even his cross braces have cross braces. lol awesome builds bud.

@davidjessee7701 Год назад

Looks great! I’d roll the reservoirs to the inside of the tube for protection in case of roll over.

@bake162 Год назад

Nice fab work, it’s going to be a big task to take it apart and weld up all those tacks permanently,

@DirtRoadBoyz2 Год назад

You're working your arse off to get this much done in one episode.

@Moronicsmurf Год назад

So if one wants metal on metal hinges to.. smooth out.. valve grinding paste.. and work it a bit.. its suprisingly effective.. then make sure to get rid of it :D

@brianw9670 Год назад

Fantastic video! Editing is on point. Didn't miss a beat

@mkuhlman77 Год назад

I'll have to steal your door hinge idea. Great work like always.

@travis8334 Год назад

Chris this machine is looking amazing clearly your most brilliant build yet don’t love the chains but you definitely know how to make them work and I am sure it will work great, can’t wait to see more of this build keep up the great work!

@1917Enfield Год назад

After you get the rear suspension on, roll it back and forth a few times and the suspension will settle down.

@DeadRedRider Год назад

26:14 Not that I've done a CFD analysis, but I don't think you need those additional tubes connecting the shock/spring mounts to the rest of the frame. The tubes they're attached to now are already cross-braced and in tension. I think it's good as is. More tubes would just be more weight for overbuilt strength.

@jmerwood9 Год назад

Can't wait to see this project finished, it looks awesome Chris.

@garypease7414 Год назад

That toeboard tube could have a 15 degree bend for more clearance, then cross brace off the bend. Plenty of clearance, and much needed strength

@Ghryst Год назад

that stiffness in the doors now, is a lack of rattling later. no need for plastic insert collars. but where the shocks connect to the bends at the top of the X bar, there needs to be a pipe joining the two bars at the shock mount points. its only 6-9 inches of tube, not much weight, but will strengthen those shock mounts incredibly. love the X shaped viewed from the front, looks fully sick brah, just needs a subwoofa

@arvidnorberg3530 Год назад

First, put a bend in those bottom braces to allow a little more room between tire and frame, second, I dont believe a spare would be neccesary, if a tire goes, it is probably caused by something worse. Awesome work!

@midwestbest6398 Год назад

This thing is looking pretty evil lol I have some awesome trails but I'm in missouri or I'd say you need to come test it out. Super excited to see how she rips!
