Is there anything you two can't do? I love how you come up with an idea, determine that it's beyond your current capabilities, then source the educational content required to figure it out, and then go and do it - all successfully! Simple Amazing!

“Ambition Strikes” is a perfect name for your channel. Most people start a project and realize they don’t have the skills for the job. You two seem to have a willingness to learn and gather information that surpasses most peoples “ambition”. Thank you for the superb content.

I can’t tell how amazed I am at your willingness to take on so many challenging projects. You two are truly inspiring. Keep it up, can’t wait for more.

@twotwentyswift 2 года назад

How freaking cool! I was debating on buying a CNC table and seeing this has conviced me it's the right thing to do. 2 things to know with your tracked Jeep. (1) Take extra gas. Your mileage will be worse than you expect, around 3 mpg. (2) Your power steering will need a super efficient cooler or you'll boil your power-steering fluid and have to muscle it. Fantastic job. You'll have to refine your setup and sell your CNC file to people who want to replicate this awesomeness!

@AmbitionStrikes 2 года назад

Having a plasma table is a serious game changer! We'd highly recommend checking out Arclight Dynamics. Our table has had ZERO issues and the customer service we've gotten is top notch.

@twotwentyswift 2 года назад

@@AmbitionStrikes Hey, thanks for the reply! I've been looking at the Langmuir Systems Crossfire XR that is a full 4x8 and costs $6500 but I check out the Arclight Dynamics as well. It's always good to hear about great customer service. Thanks!

@brianm9467 2 года назад

For the anti rotation you should spring load it to reduce the stress. Thats how they do on track kits on ATVs kits. If you needs pictures or ideas I can take pics of my kit I have.

@AmbitionStrikes 2 года назад

Thanks for the tip, that’s a great idea!

@ve3yjt 2 года назад

A hydraulic shock absorber (regular ole suspension shock) mounted horizontally from somewhere around the lower control arm (front) or front leaf mount (rear) would prevent the track units from swingling around like a pendulum and could be configured as limit stops if sized correctly and mounted properly. Gas charged shocks could be used to counteract the counteract the drive torque as well. (More complicated on the front end as the forces on the unit reverses when in 2wd and 4wd, but honestly, this this is probably only gonna move in 4wd. )

@danbednar21 2 года назад

Outstanding build. I can’t wait for the episode on how to add full hydraulic steering, should be really cool and useful.

I cannot believe there is so talented motivated people out there. I been watching since barndominium project and was not shocked or anything since I am a builder but that was only your newly acquired skill sets. I am especially amazed at Courtney. I have not been around woman like her who get things done and are willing to do hard work including my own wife. Women here all just sit around in comfortable home wearing brand name clothes and luxury bag watching Netflix and gossip about break ups. My wife call me to bring laundry up to 2nd floor while I was working down in the crawl space fixing beams and joist of our patio in blazing 95 degrees.

@noproblem2big337 2 года назад

Well done that is a difficult job most people would never contemplate I'm impressed...

@OEWanderer 2 года назад

Great content you two. A suggestion for Boone... When we go camping we set up a "run line" at camp. Between two trees tie off a rope or twine 50-100 feet or so at about 8 feet high. Attach a 10 foot lead to this with a carabiner and attach it to the pooch. When we do this, it allows our dog to essentially have the run of the camp while still being limited to the camp. It's a lot more freedom for her and allows her to run as well. Just a thought. Cheers from Arizona.

The Trax are interesting and the real question is will they work to well so that you really get stuck. Leave 2 pairs of snowshoes as well as a small shovel in the Cherokee during deep snow use. Spending a night in the snow and digging yourself out is no fun. (don't ask me how I know)

@tucker476 2 года назад

@leonhart2452 2 года назад

For the rear wheels adding coil over shocks from the slider skis up to the frame. You want to have the shock set to lift the front of the track if they lift off the ground. This may require mounting the shocks to the rear of the tracks. Once you figure that out, the front will need more to allow the tracks to turn. Looking very good.

@brianrydzeski6108 Год назад

Nice build. Might I suggest putting the track on a moving dolly, then you can roll them in to place without lifting them. Of course you need a jack to lift it high enough. Take care.

I love the snow tracks idea. I had been contemplating that idea for about 20yrs, but I couldn’t find any plans for them anywhere. All I could find was pictures of them. I’d really like to find some plans somewhere just to give me an idea of how tall and wide I could make them, or even implement them on an ATV for deer hunting season. Thank you for rekindling that idea. Feel free to message me anytime. I might be able to help you with a project that you’re stuck on completing. Thanks again.

Looks awesome, you need a small harbor freight furniture dolly or mechanics creeper to move them around when mounting/dismounting them so you can slide them sideways onto the lugs. Can't wait to see it do Snow-nuts.

@nyjohn12 Год назад

Hi - First time posting. I retired from a Nuke Plant. We were on a special job that required a lot of welding. The scrap component was radioactively contaminated so it had to be covered so we wouldn't be subject to airborne particles. A welder, a fire watch and me monitoring for radiation. The slag hit the plastic and a small fire ensued - then another and another. Courtney's hair would light up faster than the plastic so Courtney please put that beautiful hair inside your shirt or jacket when you're welding.

you should refer to those parts as the track frame, they will support the idler wheels, sprocket and the tracks and will pivot on the wheel hubs. similar to the track frame of a dozer.
