My suggestion would be to add larger tires to all 4 corners, then change the rear portal gears on the portals to allow for more torque and to keep similar ratios.
@@MyKonaRCwell no, portals were designed to solve that exact problem. But axles with portals are expensive and if you’re running portals you’re probably doing some serious shit so you’re not gonna want some cheap side by side level shit. Cop some rockwells and hit the rocks!
@@michaelcoulton883i dont know how it is in rest of the world but in slovakia, even an Audi Allroad with airsuspension is not a guilt. In a technical documentation of the car where is VIN, date of manufacture type of the vehicle etc. etc. Is also stated your tire measurements which tire you are allowed to mount on the vehicle. You can rise a ground clearance by 2-3cm which allows you to use larger tire e.g 19 or 20inch 255/35/R20 but in that documentation is only R16 195/65/ R16 or 265/35/R18 for summer usage. And now what... that was only an example, every vehicle has its own documentation with exact tires you are allowed to use, BECAUSE when you compare xxx/ 65 / R16 and xxx / 35 / R18 they have almost the same crossection lenght so the speed of your vehicle on the dashboard matching almost the same. When you equip your car with R20 tires and you use xxx/ 30 / R20 this tire is by few centimeters larger thus, when you have 50kmh on the dashboard in reallity you go 3-5kmh faster and that is against law in slovakia.

If you plan on going crazy with it add tensions to the rear chain setups. Set it up like a timing chain and add cv axles and long chains to the front wheels. The rear axle is driving all 4 wheels
Change the sprockets for more torque/bigger wheels. then box weld the drop brackets and fill halfway with oil so the chains/sprockets hold upp in the long run👌
You guys are great, I love how creative you are in the way you test things. I'd really like you guys to revisit the rubber piston rings, possibly daily drive for a week and see how they hold up to thermocycling and prolonged driving conditions. I was impressed with how well they held up in your tests.
@@shanepowers7566This is my second one as well. My 1st was an '84. This one was my daily driver until the trans died. Trying to save up to have it rebuilt or replaced.
I'm surprised he didn't do a burnout. That was such a simple elegant modification though, one of the best I think. Just knew they were going witht he chain drive!
No offense, but you really should be impressed with their ingenuity and resourcefulness more. From an engineering standpoint, most of what they design would flunk you out of drafting class for the various flaws they don't address. I get it for a quick youtube video, but please don't think of this as "top tier engineering."
Wow fu$kgoogle52… you do realize, that this is a group of young guys in a back alley garage, in Russia no doubt… I admit some of their stuff has been pretty lame as of late… but I’m pretty impressed with this build.
Put some 24V 4kW starter motors on top of the front pillars with the solenoid engagment driving chains to the front wheels. Then you can have off road front wheel drive hybrid capability. Probably best geared for say 10-15kmph top speed, they will supply all the torque you could ask for in off road situations where you need the 4wd. Our series one land-rover would start in low range first or second gear no problems from standstill on a steep hill. It was a 1600cc about weight as your lada. You might not even need 24V 4kW motors, 12V 1.5 to 2kW might be perfectly adequate.
Yall should try putting the wheels from the swimming lada on this. The cabin is not gona get soaked this time and there will be no water splashing in the intake and other stuff.
Those 4 bolts that attach each front lift post to front strut won’t be able to handle hard braking loads with all that extra moment arm. Any large torque around the original hub will cause the bolted connection to fail by shearing the bolts. Be careful…
hah! this is awesome! you should try to put larger gears on the rear axle to raise the top speed🤪 or vise versa and make a unstoppable crawler, could test by trying to push a load before and after?🤔
Well they already spin 360°. You mean 'turn' 360°. Seriously, that'd be interesting to see the guys figure that one out and the result would be unique. Now I've got omni-directional drive stuck in my head.
Some manufacturers have done AWS, but in most cases the rear wheel barely moves. 360° would probably be a mit overkill, but it's likely possible on a budget with basic hardware, anything past 70-80° is beyond what modified suspension that still retains suspension stuff can do. And finding a diner car with independent rear suspension, because you can't really have a driven live axle turn, and that can easily be ripped down and everything modified would be Next to impossible. As for 360°, turning, you might be able to do it on non driven wheels, but even then it would be extremely difficult.
My suggestion would be to add larger tires to all 4 corners, then change the rear portal gears on the portals to allow for more torque and to keep similar ratios.
i agree :)
I'd also recommend they find some way to box weld those drop brackets closed. We won't see anything, but they could realllllllly lay into it then.
monster truck lada?
33x12.5 15
Look how the Mercedes Unimogs Axels (specially the older ones like Unimog 404 and Unimog 406, the simplicity) are made and there you go.
that is the most badass lada, definitely needs some big tires.
everyone asking for bigger tires but you don't need bigger tires. That is the beauty of this.
Now thats a real lift! All other vehicle lifts only raise the body and not the axles. Thus still having the same ground clearance.
raise the body so the larger tires fit in the wheel wells, the larger tires raise the ground clearance
@@michaelcoulton883 not nearly as much as this car in the video.

@@samohraje2433 Asinine rules like that is why I'm so happy to live in the United States.
Nice, giving me ideas for a good winter conversion for my car to beat the unplowed roads!
❤❤ you just solve my 6 wheel idea with rear wheel chain ⛓️ loving your show from Nigeria
Would love to see this revisited with 4WD and bigger wheels
Make a LADA NIVA 4x4 with a high geared lift kit for rock crawling and (4 tractor front wheels) some big wheels.
Love your videos. 👍
My suggestion is same solution on Lada Niva...
This would solve 4x4 problem and create a real off road monster ;)

Normally portals are meant to fit inside the wheels. Making them this way puts huge strain on the factory components.
Geeeeeeeezzzz!!!!! I absolutely am unable to pick a favorite episode of garage 54!!!
Missed the chance to make a 2:1 gear reduction from the go :) awesome build though, you guys come up with the coolest ideas!
Good Idea. Need to make a monster Lada similar to a monster truck. 😊🎉🎉 keep it up 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤ you guys are awesome 👌 👏
Ever since I was like 9, I always wondered if something like this was possible to lift a truck. This is really awesome! lol
Cool story bro
If you plan on going crazy with it add tensions to the rear chain setups. Set it up like a timing chain and add cv axles and long chains to the front wheels. The rear axle is driving all 4 wheels
the lada need big wheels now
Yes 😀
37 inch mudders lol
Or a donk lada
Big wheels and gear reduction in the portal! And tyre chains!
Yeah like why didn't they put some all terrains on it lol.. That would've been awesome
Change the sprockets for more torque/bigger wheels. then box weld the drop brackets and fill halfway with oil so the chains/sprockets hold upp in the long run👌
and now:
-four bigger wheels
-struts reinforcement
-dirt protecion and so, for the chains
and this could be the unstoppable Lada!
You and the guys who work for you are quite clever. You all blow me away with what you come up with.
this is %107 . Nice Work!! might want to keep this one around as a utility vehicle.
So what I'm hearing is the all wheel drive lifted rally offroad Lada is next? Excellent!
You guys are great, I love how creative you are in the way you test things. I'd really like you guys to revisit the rubber piston rings, possibly daily drive for a week and see how they hold up to thermocycling and prolonged driving conditions.

Has there ever been a DONK Lada? This car is so close! I know these guys could build a set of 30 inch rims for this thing.
I think they have a set form years back somewhere lol with some spinner things
I could see them cutting out the wheels wells a ridiculous amount and swapping in 30" wheels with about 1/4" tires.
@@jblob5764I agree! I remember seeing that video!😂👍 pimp my Lada!
_"Has there ever been a DONK Lada?"_ I think they would have a hard time shoehorning in a 2JZ motor.
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss
You guys are amazing. How about putting tractor wheels on? How cool would that be then driving through town. Looks cool😀
Very cool! That is something to really think about. You guys are fantastic! Keep up the fun and interesting work.
Forest and a tractor trail. Bigger tires also could help, and chains to back? Cool stuff.
These guys can build anything. Great example of home brewed engineering
But doesn't last Long term lol
I love it! I've thought about trying something like this with my 1986 AMC Eagle wagon. LOL
I love them. I’ve had 2 of them, so far.
@@shanepowers7566This is my second one as well. My 1st was an '84. This one was my daily driver until the trans died. Trying to save up to have it rebuilt or replaced.
Lada Niva has 4wheel drive Hi, Lo and locking diffs. that with some good tires shuld do anything with that lift lit. eaven tip over ;)
Solid!
Top KEK!
Peace be with you.
I'm surprised he didn't do a burnout. That was such a simple elegant modification though, one of the best I think. Just knew they were going witht he chain drive!
snow chains will make it unstoppable
Put a big offroad Wheel set 💪 then go e erywhere.. brilliant you guys are the Real entertainment.
Idea for next project: 4x4 Lada with this lift and bigger wheels. Literally what you said what should be done to make this car offroader.
I’m impressed with their engineering.

@@FuckGoogle502They are not rocket scientists but to fabricate some of the stuff it is pretty impressive.
@fgoogle cool story bro
Huge smile on my face watching this!
The strangest but most interesting conversion yet.
That's a Lada ground clearance! There, I said it.
These guys have single-handedly opened up the portal axle market for offroaders
You guys are having WAY too much fun!!!!
Brilliant lol A great Chair dismantler, keep up the good work 👍👍👍
It'slike them dock crane things that lift containers, but even more ridiculous looking... :P
You guys should try to make a ZIL-2906 screw drive lada.
Put tracks on the rear, sleds in front and drive in deep snow.
How about bringing that set of wheels on farmland and giving it an hydrolics upgrade too for a 4 rows mower or seed attachment...
Now that's what I call a lada
Put some 24V 4kW starter motors on top of the front pillars with the solenoid engagment driving chains to the front wheels.

One of coolest things I’ve seen on here
Gave me an idea about building my own portals for an ATV. Lol
They can put two front MTZ 82 axels on Lada. 😁
I have a cool idea. Put niva drive train on regular zhiguli and make a proper offroader.
Love it! How about making a railroad going Lada?
Do they have railway available there, thats not frozen over 😉
@@simonallan9941 Put a V plow on it! 😁
Id put taller tires on it and and regear the rear diff lower
Make it be liftable hydraulically and you've got a Citroën!
That was freaking hilarious! 👋😂👌👍you guy’s should try putting larger off road tires and go off roading! To see how it would do off the beaten path! 🤣👍
Time to lift up a 4x4 UAZ the same way and put on large tires.
Larger winter tires. AWD, with maybe front and rear diffs welded
Thank you from Spain we love you guys
Imagine the snow drifts you could drive through with this
Add another set of wheels on the inside of the lifts
These guys would survive a zombie apocalypse with ease
with bigger wheels it would be even more interesting😊
Hope garage 54 would do expirements with a motorcycle would love to see it
you should stabilize at the front end. put on some reactionarms front and back.
Brilliant!!! Million dollar idea 👍👍👍
Love this the only thing that could make it better is AWD and big wheels and tires. I am trying to justify a lifted Lada in my life now 🤔
an old logging road should fun to test on an great video it was fun to watch
love the welder shopping cart 😹
keep up the hard work in the videos
Notification squad Have a nice weekend!🔥🔥🔥
I like your zany ideas. This one is great!
Can it do a whellie with a counterweight in the back?
Something changed or the host is just photogenic you look good.
quality content
Make it even higher and/or add larger tires!!
This definitely needs a second video with more grippy tires. It doesn't even need to be big. Do
Excelent job guys!!!
Bigger tires and get ready for the snow 👍 😃
This one looks like it was a lot of fun!
Do larger mud terrain tires and take it off-roading next
Now make it go up and down on demand so cool!!!!
There is a glitch on the road texture at 9:41 I hope Garage 54 will patch it.
I love it awesome idea simple fabrication but it works great really great job guys!!!
Now make this one AWD and put some BIG tires on it 🤩
vlad discovers the joy of monstertrucks on a budget
monsterlada next?
Looks like a shopping cart ! lol
You guys are awesome ! - Merry Christmas - Keep the fun experiments and great videos coming :-)
If you lowered the diff ratio you could also max out the wheels. That would give you more hight as well.
Good job guys 👍
That was surprisingly stable!
Those 4 bolts that attach each front lift post to front strut won’t be able to handle hard braking loads with all that extra moment arm. Any large torque around the original hub will cause the bolted connection to fail by shearing the bolts. Be careful…
Can you try diesel in the coolant
hah! this is awesome! you should try to put larger gears on the rear axle to raise the top speed🤪 or vise versa and make a unstoppable crawler, could test by trying to push a load before and after?🤔
I really hope the next step will be bigger tires.... and of course changing the top sprocket to a much smaller one to increase wheel torque
You should add a second drive wheel in the back. That would be sick!
Ok now put giant tractor tires on it
Of course rear drum brakes don't work, sensible mechanics 👌.
Just when you think they’ve ran out of ideas 😂
it is hard to guess what this channel will do next.. i love it 😂
Easy. Lada Lada and Lada
Tu a déjà un système de rehausse comme celui-là dans les véhicules agricoles.
J'aime bien vaux vidéo continuer comme sa
How dose the lift effect breaking heavily and fast acceleration? Big wheels would break the lift I think
I always wanted to see you guys install a suspension that enables all 4 tires to spin 360° which would likely require Hydraulic power
Well they already spin 360°.
You mean 'turn' 360°. Seriously, that'd be interesting to see the guys figure that one out and the result would be unique.
