    I’m buying a set of your plans but I’m gonna change some things, use SXS spindles etc. front arms on rzr are close. I’m gonna use zx14r motor so I figured it need some strong parts. I’m excited I love the build.

      Thank you! I made the chassis and the plans specifically for this reason, so anyone could make their dream build. I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

    Flip the a-arms over? They look upside-down, anyway.
    I generally like reducing stiction on my shaft, but a fender washer to support the spring load?

      It has worked for over 50 hours of punishment 🦾😁. But as with everything in these videos, you are completely free to do things how you want to, it is a blank canvas for your mechanical art.

    I just use a piece of rubber hose to protect the shock

    This bear is coming out gorgeous!!!!! You think you can make this street legal? I would love a daily driver looking like this!!!!

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I looked up some laws on making things street legal. They are pretty straightforward and pretty tough too. Apparently all you need to do is save all of your receipts to show you built and own every piece. But if you made it in 2021, it “needs” to meet federal and state safety standards. Not sure how sierra got theirs street legal but I’m definitely jealous.

    Hello. Fantastic detailed videos and this is by far the best thing on TH-cam for amateur beginner builders. I was just wondering if you might know of a plan B in case I can't find second hand Polaris or other ATV suspension arms and hubs for the wheels.
    Regards

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you very much, I really appreciate that. Arms hubs and spindles can always be found new and second hand. Or you can get really nice race setups if you have the budget for it. I definitely prefer to start with a complete quad to save a little cheddar. Thank you for the comment!

    Is that’s baby tri-z in background? I have four 3 wheelers, Honda’s 250rs and one 350x I love them

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’ve had that tri-zinger since I was 4 years old. It is always in running condition and still take a ride on it every summer. I see you know the joy of 3 wheelin 😁

    What are your target alignment specs? And do you ever get these laser aligned at a shop?

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My target alignment specs are measures straight and looks straight. It can be fine tuned for driving feel once it starts slinging dirt. I do not get them laser aligned; my first one drives great, you can put it wherever you want at the angle you want.

    Got a question. Could you in theory, make the lower shock mount removable from the plate on the a arm by using some nuts welded on the lower part of plate and bolts. This would allow you to design and make different lower mounting points for different tracks and terrain. Would give massive adjustments for dialing in the front and back suspension.

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In theory and in actuality, you could do whatever you dream of. This chassis represents a blank canvas for all of the great ideas all of the creative people in this world are dreaming up. This is just another one of those great ideas that could be applied to anyones creation. Thank you for that 🖖

      @@KJRaycing honestly i love your work and i am inspired to build my own one soon. But i still dont have tools and equipments for bending pipes and notching. Its so expensive here in the philippines. Its also hard for me to find differentials and CV axles to use. So expensive. I wish someday i could find some help in finding those materials. Thank you.

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I honestly don’t think anything smaller than 10” would fit. They are pretty decent size rotors. But it will fit whatever you set the front end up to take.

    It may just be an optical illusion, but something looks out of level on the bottom of the frame on the front end.

    • @KJRaycing
      @KJRaycing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wow, good eye. The notcher wasn’t perfectly centered for offset when I did the steering rack support, it is maybe 1/16 off. It doesn’t effect the steering and the skid plate will cover it so I left it.

      I saw it too. To my eyes it looks like the shock lengths doesn't look the same like more tension on one side.
