4x4 Off-Road UTV Build Ep.31 - Limited Slip Differential, Axle Assembly
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2021
- Disassembly of the homemade 4x4 UTV and final welding of the frame including front mounted snow plow mounts. Primer and paint, control arm bushing & wheel bearing replacement, brake caliper rebuild, radiator & fan cover fabrication, timing belt and coolant pump replacement on the engine, power steering pump mount modification, limited slip conversion kit installation; control arm, strut, axle shafts & differential installation.
This is part of a series of a four wheel drive utility vehicle build to lessen the work load on my trusty 2002 Honda Foreman Rubicon TRX500FA. This partially answers the question "Why?" but for those who want to ask "why don't you just buy a UTV instead of building one?" I just want to say - I'm not made of money. UTV-s are ridiculously expensive, even the car I drive around daily is worth less (not worthless though!), hell, it is even worth less than my 2002 Honda ATV.
"How much HP will it have?" - the 1.4 litre FWD Peugeot petrol engine I'm using has 55 kw and this will not change, but the torque is tripled via the BMW E39 differentials I'm using to transfer power to front and rear axles.
"It will be too heavy!" - this project just like the firewood processor project does not have to float. And a heavier vehicle will handle better anyway when hauling heavy loads.
All of this fabrication is done in my tiny homemade workshop.

Question for you, that metal block with the yellow springs is that some kind of locker if so how does it work, and did u make this or is it a kit, and if u made it where did u get the measurements for it, just curious maybe I can do a cheap locker set up for an old Subaru or half ton Chevy without welding it !!!!
ain't no pliers long enough... but with these extensions they're strong enough
@@nobody4634 look up Lock Right locker 👍 They work awesome! No welding, they lock under load giving power to both wheels, off throttle they unlock so they don’t scrub tires in corners. I think you would like one. They cost about $250 but are worth it.
Good timing when you're just opening TH-cam looking for something to watch and up pops a Donn DIY notification! Kettle on...
Indeed
Right on Time 😁
Agreed!
Word…… 🥳
I cannot stress enough how much I appreciate the format of this channel and the videos. So many channels are filled with useless dialogue or shameless promotion. Donn just keeps it real. Straight content, no filler. My favorite channel on YT. Keep it up, Donn!

I can't agree more 👌👏👍

Donn, you are an intelligent and talented man. Here in the UK, we have a saying "Jack of all trades, master of none." - but you are a "Jack of all trades, master of them all."
Alternatively, jack of all trades is better than a master of one.
an oft misquoted and misused Shakespearian quote
This so-called jack of all trades was in fact William Shakespeare. The full phrase is “a jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.” It was a compliment.
@@davidp8157 I saw that TikTok too
@@MrJeb707 not tik tok for me, actual education,
That's a lot of work man. Must be hard to have something finished and then say, "Well time to take it all back apart for finishing and paint!!" Nice work!
...and also filming and editing etc...
Donn DIY, вы великий изобретатель. Лайк, великому мастеру. Guter arbeit, mein Freund.
I have always wondered how those limited slips preform, looking forward to seeing the difference 👍 I installed a lockright in my Suzuki sidekick and it was a fantastic upgrade!
Lots of work to take it all apart again but having everything painted will be really nice. Thanks for posting Donn 🙂
We will see how this LS works.🤘🙂
@@DonnDIY could you tell me what kind of LS is it and the brand name ?
You’ll have to remember if you ever need a little round tab or a tube cap you now have like 100 of them in the bottom of your plasma table haha.
Приємно бачити що людина насолоджується готовим продуктом а не напівфабрикатом. Лайк.
A good pair of pliers to remove snap rings of that size would be a set of parallel snub nose pliers fitted (welding or grub screw) with pins. Because they're parallel, they'll never let loose the ring, causing untold destruction and panic. :)
That sounds like a good tip, I never heard of (parallel snub nose pliers) Most snap rings have always gave me a hassle, make wonder why there isn't any (parallel snub nose pliers) that are>>>>snap ring pliers............
Aaaah Don,Im so happy you painted it! Now go and paint the Saw Mill:) Very well done!
how? he sold it was in the last vid?
Сколько же знаний и трудолюбия в этой голове....про руки я вообще молчу, завидую белой завистью!👍👏
With this paint, this vehicle really starts to have a hell of a look, we are not very far from the end
Just gotta love how you just "wing it, and make it fit/work". Can't get enough of your vids! Great work as usual Donn!
Something awesome about built vs bought.
And to think this started with a scrap car and piles of lumber and steel.... Marvelous! Like a glove!
I've been watching your channel now for some time and am amazed at your skills and ingenuity! Your parents must be so proud of you.
The lock for your tip bed - so simple - so elegant! Fantastic!
This guy is producing first class content, true genious at work and not promoting mass produced trash products or anything else. You might wondering what is the catch? And it is that he is from Eastern Europen county side so degenerate western ways haven't corrupted him. So glad I have found this channel. And that is one beautiful Fronius machine and workshop.
Great job Donn, getting closer to the finish line! Really looks great! Thanks for sharing with your projects with us, alway enjoy watching your videos, Fred. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻✋🏻✋🏻

Love this build !
It's good and sad at the same time!
It's good it's almost complete but
Sad it's finished!
I hope you have plans for another epic build?!
Cheers from Sydney Australia
🇭🇲👍🐨🦘🦘🐨👍🇭🇲🇪🇪
You are almost done! Other than the internal Engine parts you practically have a new ATV. Excellent work! Really enjoyed 👍👍
You have long since left the realm of ordinary DIY, Donn. Nevertheless you remain a shining example for all those guys who at a lower level want to be creative in their own way. Keep amazing us, dude!
I mean, if you do things yourself it's still DIY, isn't it? While you do them you get more skilled and thus the ordinary known "hot glue gun" DIY evolves into something else. But it's still DIY for the person who does it, I think.🤔
Donn DIY Absolutely! Every project you do on your own is DIY. But there is a galactic difference between your work and that of the commoners. And that is by no means denigrating towards them.
I'm impressed that you didn't have to use an angle to disassemble the UTV, a credit to your thinking ahead. 👍
They should reward you with the Nobel Prize for "Do it yourself"
You are very inventive and you can sure lay down some nice welds, 👍awesome work. I could enjoy watching you work all day.
I’m sure I’m not the only one that’s glad that you ran the footage of the disassembly and reassembly at half speed so we could see what you were doing. 😉
I might be slightly disappointed that you didn’t paint it the red/orange colour that you’ve used in the past.
No no, it has to be green as that is the colour of all great makers on TH-cam, Cà Lem uses it on his channel and Matthias Wandel has his own shade of green. Green is go.
Great build and video work! The green is a nice choice I don't think John Deere could pull off something done this good.
Definitely looks more like Bührer green - and more like Bührer quality!
Awesome my dude!! I'm making snowplow mounts for ATV. And I think I'll do my pins the same way you did. Simple things like that I enjoy watching. Also Great choice on the paint. Love this episode thanks Donn.
Hi Donn,
Absolutely beautiful, what an awesome project.
Love everything about it, but mostly your determination
to quality and perfection.
Thanks for the video.
Right on time I was bored thank you💪🏿💯
Даже не удивляюсь сколько у вас терпения! Вам удачи и больше роликов ,а так все супер 👍👍👍👍👍
Давно смотрю ваш канал !все Ваши работы достойны уважения и внимания !!! Все супер
you're complete man.....smart,skill full & rich.....amazing broo.....!!!
Great Video .. You built the machine was great ,, then you take it all back apart into a million pieces .. finish weld and paint . great work .. then you remember where all the bolts go .. keep up the great work and videos you do .
Hey Donn, what you're doing is freakin awesome! Cheers!
This is a professional level workshop and tools. Excellent video.
Absolute madness !!!! your manual skills are unattainable !!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🔝🔝🔝🔝👋👋👋🇩🇪
Very nice work.
Excellent work , your engineering skills and intelligence are amazing . A pleasure to view work of your calibre . . I always view your content because of the different content and ideas you bring together to make excellent machines . Keep up the excellent work and content . From northern UK . .
Take note, this video has rare footage of Donn DIY actually sitting in a chair! Thanks for sharing, this build has been amazing to watch!
You impressed me again, very nice work, and great choice of paint.
your editing skills are really good -in reality all the jobs you do take hours and hours - fantastic work :)
I was really hoping that something would "fit like a glove" this week, but no such luck. Looking pretty cool, it's always so much better when things get a paint
Donn, It looks great. Like the color choices too. Amazing to see it come so far, in such a short time. Look forward to next video.
I want to thank you for sharing your journey it has given me inspiration to try something myself 👍👍
i'm always impressed with donn's fabrication skills, but what really blew me away this time was the short parody of "ain't no mountain high enough" lol!
Beautiful. So much work in this crazy build.
Wow man that's a lot of work .....kinda like building it all over again ......but it will look FANTASTIC and will be painted the right way very nice work I look forward to the next video !! 👍👍
I see that the process for removing snap-rings is the same as the US.
1. Try
2. Cuss at it
3. Cuss at it some more
4. Break pliers( a lot more cussing)
5. Get new pliers
6. Cuss at it some more
7. Finally it almost falls out on it's own!
I feel your pain. Keep after it. That UTV definitely has a mad max vibe.
How about a powered trailer like a Gamma Goat to put behind it?
I built the rear differential driven PTO shaft just for that purpose - a driven trailer. I just have to build it.🙃
Looks great, can't wait to see it finished.
You are awesome Donn. You always make the right choices. (You know; in the end!)
Loved the little reinforcement diamond patches!
And the "Higher Octane" soundtrack, sounds like early Slayer drums...
:-D
Thx for the vid!
Incredible Donny. Love this build!
Excellent work
Glad you took the time to clean it up.
لقد شاهدت كل مقاطع الفيديو في هذه السلسلة
عمل رائع يستحق كل التقدير والإعجاب
Can not wait to see it finished!
Greetings from Croatia!
you are a metal "artist" and a great fabricator!
Donn: thanks for putting the music onscreen! They deserve credit, too. Nice build!
Oh yeah it’s really looking good now, looking forward to see it completed. 😊👍🏻
Cheers man!
They say. The green color is chosen by geniuses! )))))
The dark glasses didn't work, we still recognised you sitting and watching your "blaster piece". Great series.
👍👍
I thought that it would never be colored.
Finally. Very good.
Such a cool build! Very inspiring!
congratulation for all episodes and patience and organized planning very goooooooooooooooooood job
Brilliant all action video. Thanks. Love the Irish Green Colour 🇮🇪☘️
Ha! I see the Make It Extreme guys donated some paint. J/K I'm impressed by your mechanical knowledge of these old car parts and how to modify them to suit your design. It's a fact that this off road vehicle will be unique. 😉
Good One " The Make It Extreme guys donated some paint." LOL
Love watching all these vids! Great job!
Работа сделана потрясающе ,мастер, одно слово.
Love it mate this little Tonka Truck will look out for you all winter I rekon
Excellent work 👍👍👍 . Thanks for sharing
I subscribe to 264 channels & yours is top to watch, the others cannot compare! when you started with the panels I thought of a tank, when you painted it, it now looks like a tank. the build looks bulletproof, your attention to detail is awesome! I'm waiting to see if you wrap the wiring harness in loom. very nice, would love to have it in Montana USA !
Excellent as always 😎👍😊
Amazing work! Love this channel!
Awesome build! Still think another rack and pinion in the rear for a 4 wheel steer would be cool too!!
Good job man!
Hi, awesome Donny awesome!!! Many thanks for the videos.
I just wanna say the music in this video freakin rocked !!!
Wonderful Don, many thanks!
There is one side note of your videos that I appreciate and not many seem to notice or even care about. Creators like yourself and Make it Extreme list what music was used in the video. I appreciate that for the rare times I hear a song and like it.
Now with that said, this machine is looking mean. Been following since before the build. Puts the homebuilt go-kart me and the grandfather made to shame.
Looks Great!!!!
Nice Work
Congratulations!
I'm enjoying your FrankenBuggy build.
Ive really enjoyed this biuld been watching from the beginning been awesome watching it cometogether great skill
Excellent!!! Almost there!!
Another great video Donn!
Awesome work 😎💪👍

I thought you wouldn't dare disconnecting all those wiring harness connectors.
But then again, you're the one who plugged them in the first time.
Bonjour superbe professionnel je pense que vous êtes artisan vue les machines et l’équipements pour la matière 👍
Good job man 👍👍👍
Thanks to video Donn! Thats very big project! 🔧🎅🏻👍🏻🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮
