Instead of a u joint use an articulation joint which would allow the car not to bend on the floor but only side to side, thus it could be either twowheel drive or four .
They should separate brakes on each corner controlled by a joystick - make a 4 way joystick that actuates four single piston cylinders (use a master from a hydraulic clutch - 2002 Accent for example) in an X formation and connect it to a X and Y axis pivoting joystick with pushrods to press into each master, so that each corner of the X points to the wheels LF, RF, RR, LR starting at top left and going clockwise. Connect the other end respectively to each corner of the car's brakes with brake lines - 4 way selective brakes ;)
Connect the steering wheel with the rear wheel brakes cylinders like: Turn steering wheel left - brake the right rear wheel slightly. Turn steering wheel right - brake the left back wheel slightly. And then put also one shock absorber on the left and one on the right side like somebody bellow sugested. All together this should impove the setup of this poor lada a lot.
Yes, this is a problem of Russian car production. The design was invented, if I'm not mistaken, in 88-89, it was launched into production in 96, and finished in 2010. And when it was time to release a new model, in fact, they simply redesigned this one. And it was produced 2007-2018. Despite the fact that the plant has concepts that are currently relevant, but they will go into production, at best, with a delay of about six years.
@@PODbot2.5 At least you guys still make cars. Poland had Polonez from 1978 to 2002. From the very first car off the assembly line to the very last one 24 years later, the doors are interchangeable.
I own two. A 110 and a 112. They're fun if you own another car but in theyre reality dreadful cars to drive. The frame is designed in the 80s while the suspension etc is designed for 2000s, so the frame is too soft and everything feels awful. It's loud. It handles incredibly poorly. Mine are from 2000 and 2004 and neither have any other safety feature than seatbelts (which are now probably too rusted to even hold)

Congratulations on this great engineering achievement! To mitigate discomfort during winter operation in Siberia, you may want to install a SERIOUS heater.
Very interesting experiment. I think you should use the same mechanism as in articulated bus and add another joint in the upper section of the car (the roof), since the springs allow the articulation only in high speed - they need force to make the articulation effect. In addition, the front section of the car needs another set of wheels on its rear end, in order to avoid the unpredictable maneuvers. Keep up the good work, guys!
I've got something you can try, 4-wheel steering. 4-wheel drive would also be an option since there are plenty of front-wheel drive cars to use the components from. Vehicles don't feel much of anything usually, but my guess is that some might cringe when forced to drive by your shop. Love you guys, you rock!
They can tie the steering wheel with steel cables and pulleys on the roof to the upper ends of the rear and thus make the steering controllable. And center the bottom joint that appears to be somewhat off-center.
This is one of my favorite channels. Russians modifying Ladas in crazy and unconventional ways is so entertaining. Despite all the things I've seen, I still have yet to see them actually make a Lada much worse.
Ever read about skid plate racing? They lock the rear wheels in place and put them on flat piece of metal so that there's virtually no traction at the rear...
Could only imagine under full compression, one of the springs breaking one or both weld joints and flying in a random direct at a thousand miles an hour
Awesome as always! Those Russians keep me laughing. Keep on keeping on! Its what we all need...something to smile about. Laughter is the best. Have you guys considered a third articulated section? This could be an idea that you could build on.
Imagine you are living in a small village and this is the car u get as a birthday present. your school is 10 miles away and you literally have to use this thing seriously xD
That definitely needs the front wheels fixed and steering from the middle like a ford versatile tractor. Like the way the exhaust pumps all the gasses into the rear of the car too
What a build! What if you added a cable system that connects the sides of the front and rear that is controlled by the steering wheel so it hinges in relation to your steering input?! Fantastic work gents!
You should do real wheel, all wheel, and 4x wheel drive in the different scenarios. Also add additional rear steering by the rear passengers and by the front driver.
As always, you guys are nuts. Love it. Would this be possible with a rear wheel drive car? Or, more tests with this set up driving in reverse, perhaps?
All 4 legged animals have a pivoting point as well as some management of how much power goes to front or rear for high-speed manoeuvring...I thing in the future someday vehicles will have flexible bodies.
You can do a whole series on a car like that. Put shocks in the middle and delete the wheel suspension. You could even make one turn like an earth mover. Even a rear wheel drive version.
Another idea for Garage 54: "What happens when you weld on a propane tank?" With a remotely controlled welder of course. I want you guys to be able to live to tell the tale.

he should add shock absorbers with those springs
That’s what I was going to suggest.
@@mickcoomer9714 I'd say, ditch the springs and only use steering damper shocks
DIY J-Dampers! (And maybe a tortion bar.)
That coil spring would make me nervous hanging over my head.
Getting a massive spring in the face is just part of life in Russia.
In Russia the spring coils you lol
that's not big deal, just ask Felipe Massa (the F1 driver)
The coil spring is more nervous about the russian underneath it
I was about to say that! He puts a lot of trust in those welds haha!

Now my favourite TH-cam channel by far. We can’t do a wheel alignment so funny. The garage that does everything and makes it work.
I am always laughing and smiling at the end of your videos. It's like cartoons for mechanics! Love it! Keep'em coming.
Connect the steering wheel with the rear wheel brakes cylinders like:
Turn steering wheel left - brake the right rear wheel slightly.
Turn steering wheel right - brake the left back wheel slightly.
And then put also one shock absorber on the left and one on the right side like somebody bellow sugested.
All together this should impove the setup of this poor lada a lot.
Be possible to divide the sides into to two levers or pedals, not the wheel though.
This doenst look like there'd be any braking in the back at all!
Amazing job from BMI Russia as usual!
The level of stored energy in those springs right near there heads.🤦♂️ This is why I love this channel!
That car is the perfect example of 1980s design. Everything is straight, like it was drawn with a ruler.

We need to see a Lada with rear wheels with 360° of motion. Like on a shopping cart or a dolley

I tried a spot weld on a spring and it broke. Last spring I got near a welder. Awesome video.
Could only imagine under full compression, one of the springs breaking one or both weld joints and flying in a random direct at a thousand miles an hour
cheers for the translation guys! thats an epic execution!

Man, he articulated this very well for those who don't understand.
Love that theyre bein safe with what they make most people from around here can even put on some fkin ppe
All the other guys are like damn it we can never get any work done around here without g54 coming in and making our day
The car looks like it was dancing 😂😂
driving with those big loaded and stressed springs close to the head.....bold and crazy
the spring right next to the head must trust that weld and spring pretty dearly
Now you can build the Laaaaada with 5 of these articulations, it will be first personal tramway ever made.
- How did he get killed ?
- A spring in the back of the head !
combine and curate all the crazy designs garage 54's done and you could have a pretty convincing funny car theme park
Drifting with this would be awesome. Just need to swap in a 2JZ.
That's actually really cool .. bump stops would be icing on the cake.. or maybe just some small hydraulic struts on both sides for cusion??
Awesome as always! Those Russians keep me laughing. Keep on keeping on! Its what we all need...something to smile about. Laughter is the best. Have you guys considered a third articulated section? This could be an idea that you could build on.

Right you would think they would have bought a concrete saw an put a cut off wheel on it by now lol

Guys are very brave this time, if that spring welding fell apart there might be serious injury involved.
Thanks for the video. Now that you have done this. You should add this car the 90 degree steering angle and see how it behaves
I would love to see a car run with completely broken engine mounts. A free engine that can move and twist as it wants.
Or replace the mounts with supple coil springs
Reminds me of those long busses with a similiar setup inside for a lower turn radius.
