4x4 Build Ep.5 - Vehicle Mock-Up

- Creating a layout of the off-road 4x4 utility vehicle by setting parts on the floor of my workshop and building a wooden frame for width, height and length reference. I want this vehicle to fit in a 1500x3000mm car trailer so that sets some limits to how big this vehicle actually can be. I also don't want it to be as big as regular UTV-s or SxS-s so I can easily drive it around in the overgrown bush. I can barely drive a Honda Foreman Rubicon TRX500FA around in the bush without having to create new trails. :) Thanks for watching. Next episode next week. Stay tuned!
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 side-by-side instead of building one?" I just want to say - I'm not made of money. Side-by-sides 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 petrol engine I'm planning on using has 55 kw and this will not change, but the torque will be tripled via the BMW 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.
Stay tuned for future episodes! Thanks for watching!

Want more fabrication videos? There are plenty on th-cam.com/users/DonnDIYvideos
i probably watch it all 😳
You sure are talented to be able to build stuff with 10 billion people watching. Nice video thanks for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the type of channel that deserves support from some tool brands, because even without saying anything, the purpose of the video is understood. Congratulations from Brazil!
A BMW E39 transmissions,
a Peugeot Partner engine-gearbox assembly, and suspensions,
so many motley parts, that no one would think of using to build a 4x4, cool !
A proper bodger always uses what's readily available, lol.
Imagine all the additional work to get a working diy ATV! Awesome work. Greetings from Sweden.
Yeah, but the price was right (cheap parts) and I got a compact UTV just like I wanted. And learned many skills along the way. 😉
Really looking forward to seeing the next installment Donn. MAD Fabrication skills young man. Some how you and the "Made in Poland" brothers need to do some kind of collaboration together.
I like you're work and videos bro 👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏
Two of my favourite TH-camrs landed today! DonnDIY being one. It's been ages!
Who's your other?
Maybe Andrew Camarata?

@@Hackbridge1963 make sure you chek out AvE and This old tony aswell. For machining videos and dad jokes
Funny to read my own subscription list here in the comments
You make this look so easy!
I know it cannot be this easy.
You must have cut the lumber they are very straight. Home Depot or Lowes have crooked lumber always.
Mock-up and quick haircut all in one! Pretty good!
Your shop looks warmer this winter. Thank you for sharing. Wish you well.
I used to think I was smart, until I watched this young man. Now, not so much. He is awesome!!!
9:03 007 - so you're actually James Bond, nice 😎
It's nice to see more of your personality shining through in the last few videos :)
He didn’t buy those boards from Home Depot...they’re too straight 😁
😆 Indeed, it's homemade lumber cut on homemade sawmill!
Awesome!
And other great build series! Cheers from Roseville, Ca.
Yupp. When you have to pick through 50 boards to get the 20 you need you know you’re in Home Depot or Lowe’s.
God forbid you leave them outside for an hour when you get home. 🤦♂️
@@Crewsy Any bigbox store is going to have half the timber bowed, twisted, cupped or split because the stuff that they get is normally the stuff that doesn't pass selection for the timber merchants
@@jerryoconnor9988 yeah because there is no home depot in Estonia

Dondiy: *builds wheels adds car*
This was simple and ingenious using wood to simulate the frame. Cool!
That's a cool way to do it. Lumber is relatively cheap and easy to cut and assemble. Best of luck on the project.
This is going to be a beast. Paint it green and call it The Hulk.
Крассавчек.... Восхищаюсь твоей соображалкой.... Hello is Habarovska
Love the Nik Blackhurst pose at the end!
Always great videos.
This thing is gonna be so neat.
Let's hope so! 👍
Thanks for the video...you fascinate me...I can see you thinking and applying those thoughts. I see you have an overall plan...then work out the details as you go...thanks again, I enjoy watching you..cheers n stay safe
Hi Donn,
Looks like we're in for a treat with this project.
Thanks for the video, looking forward to more of your awesome craftsmanship.
Keep up the good work !
Excellent beginnings to a wooden shipping crate to send a one of a kind 4x4 ute to my house!
😂😂
This is going to be great
Well done,cant hardly wait to see how you finish this 1!Enjoy watching your video's. Keep up the great Job.
Your a true artist!
Great job Donn, you have your think cap on already? You’ll have it refigued in no time 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Thanks for sharing with us and keep up the good work and videos, we appreciate what you share with us.
That's some heavy-duty head scratching right there! Enjoyed 👍👍
Yes, lost my hair while scratching my head. 😆
Лайк толь за одну страшилку на 7:18. Ждём продолжения. Зачётное начало
I'm looking forward to this build!
Imagine a four wheel steering 😂😂
Very possible with the way he’s starting out.
That would be awesome.
If you want it just use the hicas system from a z32 300zx
This could be executed, if he wants... It Will be awesome
Love it !! It will be AWESOME !! And it all started with a idea !! 👍👍 can't wait till the next video !!
1:04 You made me laugh so much when you reacted when the two wheels fell 🤣🤣🤣. Overall, a good job that deserves recognition. With you your brother Ahmed from Morocco 👍
Looks like you’re heading in a great direction forward this build.
I’m curious how you will fit inside with the engine but I’m sure you will be showing us that very soon.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hopefully it fits the door opening. 😉
Awesome video!!! Can’t wait to see the final video!!! 👍🏼😎🇵🇷
Keep it up, looking great! Nice haircut 😎
Зима близко.. А он постригся :)))
That outro tea break reminds me of something.
I like the occasional sound effects!
so excited to see how this comes out
looks great. Has always I Liked,shared. All my best.
The tires looking great
I like the tires too!
Nice Video Bro ! 👏👏👏👍
oh look whos there
Very cool build
Looking good!
Great video
again exellent job my friend.. :) :D can"t wait to be done..
Good stuff 👍🏻
Awsome vids buddy. Cheers!
This is going to be one hell of a coo, project Donn!!! I wish you lived in the USA, I'd help you and then we could go off roading!!!
damn, i wish i could hit the like button multiple times, you are really inspiring!
Looks like it's getting chilly again Donny? Love your work Mate. Billy J..... Queensland, Australia.
It is. And then I decided to shave my head - brilliant thinking! 😆
@@DonnDIY Shaved my face in March... ONCE!!
@@normhowes2975 I'm 70, shaved once when i was 16!
@@monaromanmax That sure beats me at twice in the last 35 years plus I'm only 60 lol
@@normhowes2975 Yeah, Pointless scraping your face every day, a #4 every fortnight is more than enough!
Great. This thing is going to be so awesome
this 4x4 gonna be epic man!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!!!
Many American vehicles have the front wheels wider than the rear. Pontiac called it wide track. It gives better control of vehicle.
I have to leave it equal. I wan't this UTV to fit on my 1,5m wide trailer I have.
Yooouuu WHAT SAP BROO !. OKAY I'll wait for you for the VIDEO..SALUDOS from New York
Would be cool if you'd try a four wheel steering setup, where the second set is just slaved to the first to give you 10% at extreme angles. Kinda like some of the top end Japanese cars in the beginning of the previous decade. You could sort it out relatively easy with a cam or bell crank system on the main steering input. I say relatively, but that's ultimately up to you.
Nice work - your frame layout reminds me of a Puch Haflinger or Pinzgauer.
Saludos que bueno otro gran trabajo de suguro lo disfrutaremos jejeje eres el mejor ingeniero
The idea is great, you make a video clip, it's very nice to follow, I just started making a DIY clip.
Очень интересное, но короткое видео!!! Делай дружище длинее хотя бы минут 30, ну пожалуйста! Очень очень просим!
Does your mind ever switch off?
Lol all the thought you put into planning and building stuff is unbelievable!
Can't wait to see more!!
Cheers once again from Sydney Australia MATE !🇦🇺🦘🐨👍
Expectativa total, 👀
Looks really good :D
Cheers!
I’m missing the commentary from the older videos. I know some people found you hard to understand but I had no problem and liked the extra explanation of what you’re doing
this is gonna be awesome!
Cheers man!
very good 👍
Muito bom 👏👏👏👏
Muy buen primer video, vamos a esperar los que faltan por salir, para asi seguir su progreso en la elaboración de este proyecto.Mis respetos y saludos amigo desde Venezuela.
No es el primero. Hay ya varios de este proyecto.
@@ElFurioso disculpa pero es solo ahora que estoy viendo este canal gracias por la aclaracion voy a ver las otras partes de este proyecto y gracias de nuevo amigo., un saludo desde Venezuela.
@@amilcarmoncada1801 👍 Un saludo desde España. Yo también tengo ganas de ver como sigue el proyecto. Este tío es un maquina.
@@ElFurioso 👍 ya vi los otros capitulos y de verdad es muy bueno a esperar los videos saludos mi amigo aca en Venezuela puede contar con un amigo saludos.
I had a Berlingo, I hate all these front lower suspension arms, probably ok for a light body, good luck!
Looks great. Just keep it at simple as possible as its going to be complex nomatter what.
Wouaaaaaaa !!!!!! Un truc de fou 😊😊😊😊😊
Super
you the absolut Profi!!!!!!!!
That look 1 minute in, relatable lmao.
Top das galáxias
more! I want more!
Your hair keeps changing!
I have the same tires on my atv. It will go almost anywhere.
G'day mate, greetings from Down under. There's no limit to what you can do with some wood and fencing wire. 👍🇦🇺
Absolutely!
Молодец Дони💪👍
Wow that thing is going to be heavy... strong but heavy :-)
Are BMW axels really hollow? that sure came as a surprice to me!
If you clean up the parts you are going to use first, then you wont get as dirty :-P
I am quite impressed by you, you make your own lumber to build stuff and then you build cool stuff from what is scrap to most other people... Damn cool!
Go Speed Racer, GO!
salut j'adore tes vidéo mais dix minute c'est vraiment trop court j'attend avec impatience les vidéo suivantes super beau boulot continu tu est super !!
🏆🏆🏆🤗🙏
Thanks for sharing
Nice
I made a copy of your bead breaker
Mine bolts on to the tow ball attachment at the back of my four-wheel drive.
I was just finishing up and my housemate said to me what are U making?
I said I'm making a bead breaker!!
He laughed at me!!
He said just put the wheel on the ground and drive into it with your front tyre!!
Well I still got the head breaker and now I have 2 ways to break a beas
WOW you sure take on alot , Me too though LOL.
I mentioned on one of your other videos that you should research making a rocket stove mass heater. Walker stoves has some great designs.
good job see you later
That Jim Halpert look when the wheels fell...
LMAO moment.
Nice brainstorming moment at the end with coffee (?) mug. :D
Show de bola amigo !
Da uma olhada no 4x4 que construí
عمل رائع شكرا لك اخي
Thanks 🤩😍🤩👍
I was thinking you could just screw the tire onto the support :-) Well how about foam filled tires....than you could. Great video.
Heyy, wonderful Job, whats the track width of your utv?
Donn, You've got to get yourself a circular saw, sir!
