I have a question about your steering setup. I am guessing the outer rotors are pure brakes but the inner rotors? clutches of some sort? Can you tell me where I can find more information about those? I also have been working on the design of a tracked rig based off of a Toyota camry engine and drive. Differential steering is something I have not solved yet. Love how simple you rig is with so many off the shelf parts.

Good job nice presentation

You need a proportioning valve, the same idea they use in power brake systems. A hydraulic expansion tank will help as well.

Nice, but seat belts might be an idea before you break your neck on the steering when braking hard

Where do I download the plans? 💰💰💰💰

Nice machine, magnificent dog.

😂 Yep turn the key on...works way better! 😂

I built one me too but your steering is hot

I just now became aware of this project so I don't know enough of your design thoughts so take anything said with a grain of salt. It might make life easier for yourself to install a starter motor. I noticed when the camera view was near the tracks is that you really need a good and tightly secured battery tray, that thing is wiggling everywhere. It could cause a major issue down the road if your battery can just get tossed around. You might also consider incorporating a tensioner wheel either forward or rearward on the up-slope of the tracks. I don't see one. All that said this project is very cool. I really do think you're onto something here. Will love to see it when you can charge that suspension. What is your powerplant? Sounds like a 125cc or something similar. Have you considered a direct linkage for clutch actuation rather than a cam pushing pedals for steering? I do have an idea for the overpressure and that would be like a fluid by-pass that is actuated at whatever PSI you set to be the safety limit, not unlike a blow-off valve for a turbo kit. Very cool so far. Looking forward to improvements and to see this thing really rip.

Cool!

I just randomly came across this, but what is with that seemingly over complicated drive and steering setup. An open differential with braking, or go hydrostatic drives.

I want a rip saw. we have ripsaw at home... the ripsaw at home. No seriously. I'm only 2 minutes in and I'm impressed! Trial and error and failure is an option. I love it, Im subscribing, and gimme more!!!

Your first test drive went better than mine did, LOL. Great job. I broke a couple wheels too, on my first test drive. I didn't know till the end of it. Must be a thing. LOL. I can probably help with your issues, if you like. Been working on mine off and on for 13 years now.

Dang dude, you're one heck of an engineer!

make linkage that links suspension wheels with tensioners track or a straight rods that link up and smoth out and go to top track whels which tension track

Bro!!! 🤯 WOW you freaking killed it!!! That has got to be one of the best DIY projects I've ever seen! How are you only at 3k Subs!? This shit should go viral!! A Man with some really dialled in skills here! Love the build mate, amazing work🥰🤗😝🔥🌀🎉👌💪🤙

Super cool build...I am a new subscriber and I am going ot have to go and watch the whole build now..Thanks for sharing this...-John

Holy garage build Batman! This is a serious piece of engineering. Ever since watching Howe & Howe Tech I've wanted to build something like this because it seems simple on paper, but the more I thought about the details, the more I realized it was a project beyond my skill set. Amazing work! I just subbed and will be watching your previous vids on the build. If you get it dialed in, which Im sure you will, this deserves an invite to Heavy Ds Snowed In Series next year

Fu*king cool brother. I’ll say I was expecting janky but it’s really really good. Just lil work and I can see you flying.

That is so awesome gotta be one of the coolest builds on TH-cam. Does that motor turn off then start up backwards for reverse or something? Great job!

Sweet build man. You'll dial it in.

You’re the man. This thing is sick! Well done and thanks for sharing.

Sweet!

I like it

You should've used the borg-warner t-20 skid steer transmission. A lot less complicated and they're pretty much bullet proof. Cool build. 👍👍👍

We have all been waiting for this day. Great build

Same cv axles on rear/front?

mana kelanjutan pembangunan ripsaw nya?

Can we get a video telling about the construction of the dozer?

I have an idea to make this better/stronger. Use a snowmobile chain case upper/lower gear and chain. Seal it up and run it in an oil bath like the snowmobile chain case uses. I'm making a version of this for a final drive in a buggy but a bit different as I'm going to ad in a shaft with 4 quick change gears for 2 reasons. One, easy to change final drive ratio and 2, reverse. They do make snowmobile chain cases with reverse but they cost too much. The double chains in those are super strong with well over 100 hp in some snowmobiles. Not sure about shortening them buy why couldn't you? Grind down the pins, remove the needed number of links then tig weld the pins back in place.

how did it go on the rail with these portal axels? Any problems? Any improvements you'd do in future?

Would a set of spragg clutches not work?

Dude your barn is awesome I like the buggy to 😊

Do you have to do hillard clutch??

Look into a De-Dion axle suspension and attach it with a Satchell Link. No more A-arm bending problems plus better geometry in the rear for more grip.

Hello! Where can I get ahold of those Hilliard clutches?

HEY! How well has this held up?! My university SAE baja club is looking to use a similar set up. Please let me know!

Where did you find the axels?

Make it a Crawler🔥

I love this idea for making portal axles. I've been thinking of trying to copy this idea and make it larger with maybe double row #80 chain for use on a fullsize rock crawler. Lift kit and gear reduction in one.

Haha what a sick clip!

HAJAHAHAHAHAHAJJAJAJHAJAJAJAJ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 amazing video

What engine is in that thing!?

Very impressive. Also impressive is the growth of your knowledge and skill in building vehicles in the short 2 years that you have been publishing videos here.

I like this solution. Nice use of U joint. Effective and cost efficient. Im about to watch your other videos on the subject, so maybe that will answer my question, but .... have you had any issues with the U joint in this application? I understand they are more prone to clicking than CV joints.

I love the ex wifes seat for his apocalyptic ripsaw😂

What is that hillard clutch out of?

What is that ratcheting mechanism you put on the front axle for?

This is so ghetto and amazing at the same time

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Just watched all your build videos with it. And I 100% say you should put in jet ski drives lol
