Did I see in one of the shots that you've got spare hubs? Why don't you send those out for grinding now before you need them. That way when you do blow one and have to replace the one on the truck, it's all ready to go?
Not to mention, once you get them back, it HAS to be easier to change the hub than grind for 4 hrs per hub PLUS having to make sure it's balanced properly.....
Edit: just thinking (I know pretty dangerous for me hahaha) how much are those hubs? Buy up a dozen or so, work out a deal with a local machine shop, turn them all down and sell them on the monster truck market.....I'm not sure how often they break and have to be replaced....if it's once every 2 years then it's not worth it but if it's a common wear/break item, it might be.
BeamNG Drive is AMAZING KEV!
Are you still looking for some property
Dhdwtg😎
I'd like to make a small scale model of your truck using the SCX24.
Let’s just take a moment to appreciate kevin’s hard work!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Indeed. Such a motivator as well as entertaining.
It's literally his job brah
Still good on him tho
Please pin stickcobra03 comment
I've being waiting over a decade to finish my street car. Its nearly done and I'm getting rid of it as soon as its finished. Money munching machine!
Yeah his mate built him an awesome monster truck
This guy is actually working really hard the monster trucks are no joke
Nothing makes me smile then seeing someone work their way to the top and make a dream a reality. Congrats Kevin 🎉. Love your RC vids and now I take joy in watching your work living out a dream. Your RC vids have really been a lot of help knowing the true durability. I don’t drive mine like you do but if I did I know what to expect. Hats off to Kevin. Keep on keeping on bud.
BeamNG is a great game, mainly use it because it has amazing options for tuning and modifying cars, almost any car the game comes with can be turned into a really quick racecar, sub 10 dragster, or an overpowered crawler. It's just all-round an incredible vehicle sandbox
Love the game. Wish I had the money for a better computer so I can run it better.
@@hansdomke89same man I’m still on a windows 7
@ragingghost1088 I was running it kind of on Windows Centurion. My new laptop is still a potato but it does have an SSD. It's better, but I still have to turn down the options
been a huge fan of BeamNG, its awesome to see they already have your monster truck in the mod already!
Beamng is an awesome mod able game very realistic 10/10
Anyone who doesn't appreciate KT simply does not understand how much goes into his projects. RC is one thing... this is a whole different level and he's killing it
That is the moment you were waiting for! That monster truck in your garage so you can sit and have a cup of tea and salivate. Congratulations Kev! You certainly deserve it. You made your dream come true! Well done man.. well done 👏
20:23 beamng is a great game. I loved the way he brought it up
Man, the dedication to grind those hubs down like that is inspirational! I do love these monster truck vids 👍👍
Daamn! I wouldn't have believed that one person could build a monster truck in a tiny garage as you have, let alone make it look as simple as building an RC car. Keep up the great work, can't wait to see more videos like this!
I did get some help and most of it is as easy as an RC, except wiring!
That is AWESOME.
You are truly a ManChild worthy of respect. LMBO
To build what you have built is no small accomplishment.
Much respect Mr. Talbot.
PS - you are an absolute legend! And importantly an inspiration to so many including me, showing us all that with commitment and hard work we can all achieve our dreams! 🤩
You need to paint the Raminator square body just like your monster truck.. best looking full scale MT I've seen!
That's awesome you were able to get the tires on in the shop. Good job Kev 👍
The reason why it's harder to turn the hub by hand is due to the gear reduction in the hub. Basically the gearing is reversed so turning it from the hub is 'geared up' where as turning it from the drive shaft is 'geared down' if that makes sense.
i know that dude, but whats the best way to turn it?
@@KevinTalbotTV if you could find a way of using a long leverage bar without damaging the wheel studs that would probably be the safest way and save you from having to crawl under the truck and spin the drive shaft.
@@KevinTalbotTV starter motor while it's in gear? Just bump the starter, it might be hard on the starter though. I found something out just this week: some motorcycles that have reverse don't have a reverse gear in the transmission. They simply use the starter motor with the polarity in reverse, to turn the output shaft in reverse.....
@@MidwestFarmToys True, but a LOT of engines won't start when you bump the starter, it's gotta turn over at least a couple of times before it fires.
@@MidwestFarmToys well he only wants the hubs to turn maybe 1/3 at a time to only move to the next section for grinding. Any more and he might as well do 1/2 at a time.
In reality he could start it, put it in gear, and hold the grinder in one place and let the hub rotate.....kind of like a handheld lathe.
The red beadlocks make it look frigging badass!
You should build a jig next to make the wheel grinding process more painless. Something designed kind of like a knife sharpener or fender roller that helps you make the perfect radius. The aftermarket should just make things fit together in the first place though 😅. Your hard work is commendable! 👏
He could just put the truck in drive and hold the grinder on one spot while the wheels spin…
As soon as you mentioned BeamNG I scrolled down to the description just knowing you threw a link to the truck model there. And you did. What a champ.
it looks great! cant wait to see it perform . better hope you dont need to get that beast out of the building in a hurry .
Kevin!! You do not want to use that Logitech wheel. Get yourself a proper wheel with a direct drive motor and your practice time will be much more valuable. The reason why is because that Logitech wheels is at best 1nm of torque and is driven by plastic gears / belt. Most budget direct drive wheels are at least 5nm and go all the way up to 30nm of torque for the expensive ones. A CSL DD from Fanatec starts at 5nm and the boost pack brings it up to 8nm. Also check out the Moza Racing stuff as they also have an r9 platform which gives 8nm as well. Fanatec just has some better wheel choices which might be more similar to the monster truck.
I had a G27 Logitech wheel for a long time and once you upgrade to a solid mount instead of a table clamp, you'll easily over power the Logitech with your arms. If the goal is to setup a Sim rig to practice for future contests, you'll be much better off and get more muscle memory out of your practice with something stronger.
Congratulations Kev, cup of tea and admire your very own monster truck. EPIC. You are an inspiration to us all. Thanks mate. John
awesome, kev! Now the dream is a reality. so proud for you. the hard work has paid off 👍👍👊👊❤🤘
Who knew you doing RC cars can lead to this big respects man 😎👌
the truck locks so agressive with the new tires. I love it.
I’m exited to see another run of this beast love it
BeamNG is a very good sim specially with mods! Would highly recommend getting a wheel sim rig, would be some cool content. 💯👌🏻
You getting into big experience with this track. big props mate 🤘🤙😎 Your first show was in my opinion 1st place coz the jump over the bus that you clear realy nice I was surprised 😯 Wish you hell of lot luck 🤞
john vaughan from slingshot mt here, really easy way to spin the hubs is take the end cap off the hub, remove the centre gear from the planetary this will uncouple the hub from the half shaft alowing it to spin free on the bearings 👍 hope this helps
I reckon soft mounting the Zoomies will prevent the sound from being tinned out by the chassis, might sound a little more rumbly and less... Tinny
Nice work Kevin!! Looks epic sitting in the garage with all the wheels on it!! Good theft deterrent... try getting that out lol.
Can't wait till August mate!!
Kev , I Could sit and watch you wrenching on that beast "GAME OVER" all day the amount of work you have done yourself is awesome and hope you eventually compete in Monster Jam 🙂Cheers Kev.
The middle gear in the middle of the planetary hub is called a sun gear where the axle shaft spins the sun gear and the other gears in the hub
I love your enthusiasm and passion! August can't come soon enough. Also happy to something so different from the usual! cheers Kevin!
pull the planetary cap and pull the sun gear out. or! just un lock the locker.... have someone push the transport tire in one direction (clockwise) and the one person on the other side pushing in the opposite direction (counterclockwise). but for that, you might still need a stud or two on still.
I think you should invest in an old mill. You could cut the hubs down a standard size industrial mill with a rotary table. Mills do way more than a lave. Big hubs like that would need a big lave and you'd be limited on what you can machine.
Amazing kevin, the amount of dedication, work & money to get to this point......well done..... sit with your Tea and look upon your creation ! 👏👏👏
Kev playing BeamNG was something I didn’t expect, but I love it, have been playing the game since 2015 and I’ve always loved it, played around with the monster trucks as well myself, it’s good fun
Hey Kevin,beautiful truck,have you ever thought of running some red leds in the front headlights kinda like gravedigger,that would look really cool in Gameover
Kev I have followed your build from the beginning and am very impressed, its fantastic to see people fullfill there dreams, more monster truck and RC videos 👍👍😁😁
That was an epic update! OMG so much work!!! I could never do it, brother, but I love to see how much work it takes to maintain that beast. Respect!
Well done Kev! I admire your motivation and drive mate, you had a goal and you grafted your ass off and made it happen! F*ck the haters bud, keep doing what you’re doing!!
Also, shout out to Ian and Claire for all of the help
YES! It's exciting to see the monster truck back in action soon!
Beamng Drive is an amazing realistic vehicle simulator, perfect for the monster truck, you could say that it's "ABSOLUTELY EPIC!"
The fruits of your labor has really paid off! Well done sir, well done! 😎👍
Also with the rear steer motor you wanna put tape around the ends so when you pull the bolts out it doesn't fall apart.
Congratulations Kev! Hard work pays off and it shows.
I've watched Kev for years and to see the look on his face to see when his dream come a realty is just great. well done Kev 👍💪
Hey Kevin
Great Vid as always. I'm so happy you are living out your dreams. You sure do deserve all you have achieved. Hard work and smarts can pay! I enjoy watching your content. I hope you become a monster truck legend if that is the dream you want to chase. Game Over sure looks like a high end build. You have a very pro plan to campaign it with your spares package you are assembling.
I bet that sim pays for itself in no time. No limits for you.
Be well
Clint
This crazy to see man. Can't wait for the next monster truck show, killin it!! 🤘
"If I fits, I sits!"
-- Kev's monster truck
A bit sad it'll have to wait till August to get out and stretch its monster legs. Hopefully you'll get another opportunity before then!
The reason you can't turn the wheels by hand is because you're working against the gear reductions in the hubs.
@@MidwestFarmToys very true, but you would be spinning the high stall torque converter in the transmission with the starter motor which doesn't spin the engine fast enough to move the fluid in the trans to move the wheels.
@@MidwestFarmToys It would be an interesting thing to try and see.
This has to be one of the greatest things I have ever seen! Keep up the good work and you'll go pro in no time!!
When you walk in to the shop and see it do you ever think ‘gosh dang it wasn’t a dream’ well done bloke
Have been waiting for a proper monster truck video! So now you can take your morning tea and go and have a look of your monster. 🤟
I've been playing BeamNG for years now, nice to hear that you play it Kev.
Hey Kev little advice when you do sand blasting take all bearings & races out because it seems no matter how hard you try sand will get in there & give it a good cleansing with break clean & blow it out. Worked at a fabrication shop that did powder coating & sand blasting
Looks awesome! Hopefully you can race it in the United States some day! 🇺🇸
3:36 I think she has more important things to worry about in this video than a steam cleaner... Namely the monster truck. Also, I think it'd be cool to see you do a video on the Tamiya Lunchbox and/or Clodbuster. 😀
Man - running a real MT is a shat ton of work!! Kev is not afraid of rolllin up his sleeves, that's 4 sure!
The truck looks stunning Kev! Love the new wheels but what a mission to get them on 😱😱
It sounds like if you were to somehow make the planetary hub bits you guys all need yourself, it could be a nice little ebay listing for you there brother 🤩🙌
Happy driving dude!
Hey Kev love the vids the best brasher I recon is the Blackzon slyder stadium truck edition it’s a bit slow but handles a absulote beating
Looking good man! If you can, you should field test that rear steer to get used to it before your august show. Im still scratching my brain on the 24v setup.
thanks bro!
That's awesome that you were able to score a set of Ukraine tires! 🔥 👊
I'm a big fan Kevin been watching you for a while seen probably every single one of your videos always make me laugh and smile thank you man for making this channel and others I really appreciate it💪🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic . . KEV..... you and the team worked hard . It looks fantastic. .Dream and hard work .pay off . Brilliant 😎😺😻👍
Hey Mr T.... Great to see the truck fully loaded in workshop... ❤️
Huge fan of your RC, your vids got me into the hobby after a 30 year break (I'm 52, raced around 1985 a Marui Ninja on 8.4v nicads indoors)
Kevin, if you grounded the old pump it may have worked better.
And the wheel assembly you should send it to a machine shop and see what they’ll charge to make the item and then you can sell it to all of the monster jam crew ❤ keep up the good work loving the videos.
AWESOME Kev! Living the dream, that's so fantastic! What a beast! Great with the simulator, your next show will be a total blast! Hopefully I can make it to UK in August! 💪👍
It's awesome you get to live your dream Kev. I had a neighbor growing up that had a partnership in a 1st generation truck i think 1983 that he parked in the driveway at his house a few times and it was one of the greatest machines I had seen at that time. I was hooked from there out and knew Monster Trucks were going to be huge.
What a sight seeing it in all her glory.just have to make your unit door wider.well done to you.your face says it all.
This goes to show...if you set goals and work hard you can get there
Whoohoook let get it. GOOO TEAM KEV
BeamNG is a fantastic game to use to simulate real driving. good work tho kev!
A lot of the people who made Beamng monsters possible is from a old online game Monster truck madness 2. (Mtm2draggers) glad to be apart of that era. Enjoy!
Aww mate, so chuffed you got it in there with its big boy boots on. Looks flipping EPIC!!!
Looking forward to August. We'll be there cheering you on again. #KEVFORTHEWIN
Living life to the best,,, hard work and bit of luck has worked out for this feller👍👍👍👍 keep the video coming,,,,,,
Hell yeah, brother! I have been waiting on another Game Over video! I love that Monster Truck! I need Game Over decals for my Raminator body.
Cool as Kev!
Kev almost to 2 million!!! Your channel is seriously the only video's watch constantly. Seeing your vids got me inspired to get into rc cars and in the past 6 months I've bought some Amazon crap 16th scale and a 10th scale then went all out and got kraton 8s, and the e revo. Both are very different but I love them both... Thank you kev keep it up bro!!!
KEVIN
Is there any reason why you haven't gone to a machine shop and got some spacer made up for the wheels? As that'll be a lot safer option and you'll be less likely to bend n sheer bits off.
When it comes to the spacers, make sure you get them to drill and countersink so you can drill n tap the hubs so they stay in place for when swapping the wheels over. Just like they do on vehicles
Excellent vids as always and mad respect for never giving up on your dreams.
I CANNOT WAIT to have this monstertruck in beamng!!!! That was a long dream of mine, and i havent noticed it was alleady released months ago!!
You deserve it kev, hats off to you my boy! 💪👏
Looking Great Kevin...outstanding job on Game over!!!!
I use BeamNG to practice my driving as well! Also thank you for making all of the monster truck videos you have and I'm super excited for the ones to come!
you never fail at making my sad life a lil bit less sad 👍
hope you get better mate.
Unbolt the small center of the hub an you can disengage the hub from the drive line and make it turn by itself way easier
Kev's morning glory, big, red and now with a few extra inches!
I dont think I've ever been so happy to see a truck in a garage lol
Fair play to ya Kev. You're out there showing dreams can come true with a bit of effort. Maybe one day ill see Game Over in person, she's a beaut!
I still can not believe that you build this machine yourself 😛
i love it! 😀
Glad you like it!
@@KevinTalbotTV
Cool you answer 😀
I watch every second of your videos 😁 and i also make all kind of videos. you and others were a big inspiration. I hope someday you make a rc car or boat with a small v8 in it 😃 i want to build that someday, but its to expensive
Great TH-cam Chanel kevin Shout out form México 🇲🇽
Perfect timing, Kev❤❤❤❤
Let's Go 🔥
Amazing video again and big credits for you doing almost everything yourself 💪💪
You gotta appreciate what this bloke does 👍
Its call the Sun gear in the middle and Planet gears that surround it. "Planetary" like the solar system. Pretty cool
What's with that toggle switch rear steering?! Get you a FlySky GT5 setup in there man 🤪🤣
Love watching you wrench on this truck. You really should get a bigger shop and get you a Bullard VTL lathe. It would make short work of clearancing big parts like those hubs. And smooting out the welds on those wheels would be a breeze.
Hello Kevin so glad the monster truck came so far. Love your vids
