they really need a better tensioning system so they dont skip so much under high torque. also go to the junk yard get some old seat belts and make limit straps so they dont flip over anymore
Hello. I am from Sweden i workt with Hagglunds 206 after my miletery service 4/4 1983. We have engine from Ford 2,8 liters petrol & they take from 2-20 liters ewer ten kilometers. I workt as an civilion on the Swedish miletery. Up north of Sweden snow deep up to 120 centimerers.
@@Ostilogoth not dot approved. Snowmobiles travel over 100mph with many of the same parts, so there really is no upper limit for speed. These are “geared down” to about 2:1 which means actual ground speed is only 1/2 what the speedometer reads. When speedometer says 80 mph, vehicle is only moving about 40. The jeep isn’t capable of speeds much faster. As far as legality, I assume the penalty is essentially a fix it ticket where one only needs to put the tires back on. The wrong officer in the wrong scenario could prob have the vehicle towed but I live in a pretty rural place where that’s unlikely to happen.
The tracks provide about a 2:1 gear reduction, so they are likely not putting a lot of stress on the transmission. Plus the rubicon has a 4:1 low range ratio already, and 4.1:1 axles.
@@thejonchacon wish I could post photos here. The reduction comes from Having a smaller diameter “tire”. The main drive sprocket is maybe 15 or 16 inches in diameter, where stock jeep tires are about 32”. The difference in circumference between the two is the gear reduction.
@@brihan24 the tracks provide about a 2:1 gear reduction, which is also a 2x torque multiplier. There seems to be plenty of torque….also plenty of rotation when one doesn’t necessarily want it.
As you were installing them I was like "where's the limiter? Track flips, well... they definitely needs a limiter"
That kid has no clue how cool his dad is
😂
Hell come around to it someday.
HE HAS ABSOLUTELY EVERY CLUE, held up the line for 45 minutes he was embarrassed as shit.
@@edwardrobinson4537 we were in a giant parking lot, not in anybody’s way. There was no line.
@@jacuzzibusguy nah buddy i saw the installion was in the parking lot. I think i was talking about the break down. I have to watch again to be sure
I'm sure these are still worth it. It's just good to know the limits it has. That way it's also known how to fix it or what to do about it.
@@MildarValsik they are not worth it in these conditions.
However, they are worth their weight in gold in deep snow.

Lol try spinning the drum or rotor to the correct holes on the tracks instead of spinning a 200 lb track to match the holes 😉
Ok bud they sure look fun FOR THE SNOW..

@@janmarkstrom5073 I love those hagglunds!
I don't think I'd cut the lockers on with those. They have so much grip you'll probably bind and break the track.
That is definitely something to keep in mind for sure.
Perhaps a paint pen would help mark the jeep lugnut holes
Taking the obstacle walk of shame.....
Nice, they finally got the old bronco hill graded and carved out now? Was there in the spring and it was un rideable
3:40 Been there done that!
Do airbags suspension make sense to have clearance when you need it and low cog when you don’t
That was so scary at the end
So freakin cool
This guy's very mechanically inclined 😂😂
Seems to me like there should be an anti-tilt feature
They do, but he didn’t install it
Where can I buy some for my 83 scrambler
Are they street legal and how fast are they rated for?

Ok how do these things really work you had a problem the first time out. I really don’t want to spend the money if there junk.?
They are really designed for winter use.
Wait until December or January and I’ll head out into the wilderness for a real test.
How much are these things?
New, about $12k
What tank did your tank tracks come off of?
Panzer IV
@@jacuzzibusguy Small short rubber tracks from a panzer?
Tires for the win. Those tracks being able to rotate out of position isn’t cool at all.
They have rotation limiters that stop that from happening. He just didn’t install them.
or put them on a grass rig
Goodbye transmission....

@@jacuzzibusguydo you have a source where I can find more information about the 2:1 reduction by using tracks? Thank you
@@thejonchacon wish I could post photos here. The reduction comes from

Have you ever seen a tank? No.
very "safe" to walk behind a car standing on steep hill
@@stsbmu7169 safety third!
Feel Bad For Your Jeep 💔
she definitely gets used off road.
Perfectly 😍🤩
Cool video, want some, but your truck needs way more torque than that v6. Love the wrangler but under powered.

How to destroy expensive tracks
Not the best track system out there
Low quality tracks.
Hey can i get your email address? I want to know more about this tracks
