lawnmower blades aren't hardened, they would shatter if you hit a stone and maybe injure you, just the edge needs a treatment (like a Japanese katana blade) and also a slight thicker steel blade to have some more mass/force. also like they said, video made in 2019, next week they probably try to drive a car bottle caps instead of tyres.
Actually this could be a good idea, practically you could get a diff and set it up on a trailer that you could tow with a vehicle that would be a good budget solution
I have actually seen that exact thing done. Tires were half filled with water to help with traction as well as a couple of drums filled with water added on top to help keep the wheels in ground contact. It only used 1 diff though. I really like the idea of a second diff like these guys did. I happen to have a solid diff that I am saving for this exact reason too.
I know at least 1 farmer who has done it, had like a 5:1 ratio or something like that. Tows it behind the tractor on a trailer, and uses it for clearing brush.
Yep. Mowers have a bit more going on than most realize. The shape of the deck and angles on blades are all about creating the up draft that helps cut grass rather than just laying it over.
@@miketee2444 Interesting! I'm trying to find some information on the engineering/design of this. (Pictures, text, whatever) Really interested in learning more, but not having much luck! :/
I wonder how well it would work if you flipped the axle to use the yoke behind the vehicle as a pto to drive an already made mowing implement that would be as wide as the vehicle.
@GGALLIN1776 that's how they work. at speed they stick straight out and cut. if they encounter resistance they bend back and slip past allowing for the next blade to take a wack at it. if they are ridged then if they hit resistance they can bend
You can really see the excitement of Vlad on this video. 😄 It was a joy to see Vlad so excited about the experiement.😄 Next thing would be to make those blades out of thicker harder material and connect the rear drive shaft back to the welded differential so you would get the 4 wheel drive back AND still have the cutting blade under. 😄 That would be 110% success for sure!
So the coupling on the front of the diff could facilitate Another drive shaft and another diff couldn't it? Sure might add more stress on the original diff because now it will drive 2x lawn mower assemblys but then you'd have a fantastic cut. Might need a longer 4x4 car though to fit the second blades etc. Then it would be worth while towing a rake to gather the hay. Thanks for the vid from Australia!
Your channel is my favorite on TH-cam. Your videos alone are worth my monthly subscription. You guys do all the cool things I wouldn't have normally thought about and make them a reality. Thank you and your team from Aaron in Washington state USA. I also give thanks to BMI Russian for the translation.
That's all cool stuff &.Definatly a worthwhile "redneck type" project. I will recommend you add a scattershield/ decking, , especially if you go for some higher rpms and sharp blades.
Your lawn mower truck is about the best lawnmower coming out now nobody's ever attempt to order truck y'all did was small cars but nobody's ever attempt to do it with his truck I got to give you credit man you're awesome I love it keep it up man I enjoy watching your videos you and your team are like the best over there
It worked far better than you might expect. It needs some better tyres on the front wheels and a tempered steel mower blade. But it is perfectly adequate to keep an area of land from becoming a jungle. Everything starts to grow like crazy this time of year.
How about a tow behind version that uses a differential driven by the tires when it’s pulled hooked up to a shaft that powers 2 or 3 blades so you can get a wider cutting width?
cool concept! a short drive shaft would put hub more centered front+rear, would allow some longer blades increasing tip speed for better+wider cutting. angled a little taller front (8") and lower rear (5"), it could mow flat fields fast.
what I thought kinda scary, the whole mower blade rocking around with that rear axle! the short drive shaft to center mount to vehicle floor itself, more stable.
Long term project: UAZ sleeper tractor. Deploy a till and planting machine. Need help planting crops? Drive over and there ya go. Show the results at the end of the growing season
there is a bit more than just cutting - lawnmowers have blades that are a bit propelled. like airplane blades - they "suck" weed upwards so you get as 90 degree cut as possible instead of whacking the weed down.
@@robertheinkel6225 Yep. And this rear-end is only propelled by the rear wheels. So the faster you would have to go. Unless you had a bigger diff of course
Great stuff! This got me wondering how well it might work to sharpen the leading edge of the propellers on a helicopter and fly it up-side-down, hovering close to the ground. Depending upon the model of helicopter used, this may provide a slightly wider mowing path, reducing the time spent in mowing. This may require advanced piloting skills, but maybe not - maybe it would be easy! Less time spent mowing = more time spent burping, scratching and beer-drinking.
You could’ve gotten a skinny driveshaft and joints to attach the blade to. Then, to rotate it, weld a gear to the end of it and cut in the the cars driveshaft and weld a gear there and weld it all back together and then support both driveshaft gears together. Boom
we know this is 2 years old so future build idea... If a single blade doesn't quite cut the mustard in tall grass, then we need more blades. I say put another diff on the back of the transmission and use a two-blade system. The first takes down the tall grass and the second gives the buzz cut for a finished look.
On every video I'm thinking if they just gave it another hour to make the most needed modifications after the first test, it could turn out much better! The blades in this case should've been thicker and sharpened better.
I was going to say, if you got into some real big weeds, that little rig just wouldn't have the hp needed, even the UAZ has it's limits, lol, thanks for sharing guys.
Podría hacerse en un eje aparte que pueda elevarse hidráulicamente (igual que con un tractor), para que solo funcione cuando apoyan las ruedas sobre el suelo. Y no hay que modificar un vehículo sirve para cualquier vehículo que tengas. Y los elementos se pueden conseguir en un desguase. 👌👍👍👍👍👍
Hear me out if you weld that diff and make a custom shaft you can technically still have 4 wheel drive and more power to the mower extension. And as for the blade use eighth inch steel
Reminds me of the dude who put a spinning blade on a robot vacuum, with a motion sensor, it did not end well for him, although it did end very quickly for him.
It would have been better putting the blade on the front differential instead of the rear, that way you could engage it when shifting to 4wheel drive. Great experiment though!😎👍✌️
Finally a mower that actually works better the faster you go.
would be nice to see an updated version of this with twin blades or harden steel.
lawnmower blades aren't hardened, they would shatter if you hit a stone and maybe injure you, just the edge needs a treatment (like a Japanese katana blade) and also a slight thicker steel blade to have some more mass/force. also like they said, video made in 2019, next week they probably try to drive a car bottle caps instead of tyres.
Or try a single blade
This worked so much better than I expected it would, nice job. :D
I'm from the UK and have absolutely no idea about cars, yet I find your videos so compelling. Keep 'em coming in!
Definitely a 107% on this vid
Stronger / thicker metal with a sharper edge on the blades and it'll be Moor then 107% 👌👌 keep up the good work lads 😎
I always find the underside of an UAZ so satisfying. They are incredibly well built machines.
that's what SHE SAID,,,,,,,,,
>UAZ
>well built
pick one
as long as they are not invading other countries
Well built≠simple
Nothing from cccp is built well

Yeah look up DonDIY lawn mower. It was exactly that. Great vid and build.

Simple yet elegant solution to making a truck into a lawn mower. The brilliance that comes outta all you guys is astounding.
Angle them so that the cutting edge is downwards to create an updraft to cut smoother and at higher speeds, keep the grass from being pushed aside
Yep. Mowers have a bit more going on than most realize. The shape of the deck and angles on blades are all about creating the up draft that helps cut grass rather than just laying it over.
@@miketee2444 Exactly, it's the updraft that cuts.

that's an interesting idea too, mine is more G-54-ish?
That's one hell of a lawn mower
Kick up the back edge to create lift, make hardened blades, and tune the wheel speed so you maintain 20,000 SFPM; thing will annihilate anything
Yess, and also I was thinking they should have mounted thicker blades and use only one big, strong bolt per blade, like a bush-hog blade is set up! 😁
@GGALLIN1776 that's how they work. at speed they stick straight out and cut. if they encounter resistance they bend back and slip past allowing for the next blade to take a wack at it. if they are ridged then if they hit resistance they can bend

Multi-chamber pulse jet on a lightweight lada.
Faster and thicker blade would have done wonders on that field. 👍

A ramp on the ends to make an upward pull like a lawnmower blade. That would help clean up the cut and not miss as many plants.
I made some home made blades from 5mm steel plate for my Uncle's ride-on mower.
It was cheap and quite easy.
It was 4 blades on each hub.
That's all cool stuff &.Definatly a worthwhile "redneck type" project. I will recommend you add a scattershield/ decking, , especially if you go for some higher rpms and sharp blades.
This thing with some actual purpose built blades, sharpened and balanced would be a force to be reckoned with!
Nothing more satisfying than widening a grass-grown narrow countryside road

I was very suspicious about this working, but it turned out amazing. This should be retested with actual mower blades.

That box is honestly great value even if you don't get the expensive item
These ideas are wacked and I LOVE THEM
Please replace torque converter in automatic gearbox with clutch from the manual.
Garage54 - a never ending source of happiness!
Now you can make crop circles!
That would do a great tool as a rabbit 🐰 shredder
Should have put it on a honda
I was waiting for it to blow up. But held up very well!
This would be perfect for laying out go-kart tracks in tall grass
They’ve accidentally created something useful! 🤣
cool concept! a short drive shaft would put hub more centered front+rear,
would allow some longer blades increasing tip speed for better+wider cutting.
angled a little taller front (8") and lower rear (5"), it could mow flat fields fast.

Thumbs up to whomever suggested this one and you guys did a great job on the build
The green countryside in Russia reminds me of the huge pastures that don't have corn in it in Northern Indiana!

Thanks guys loved it

Bigger rearend? Looks like it needs sharpened and more rpm's
Most mowers run in the 3600 rpm range.
@@robertheinkel6225 Yep. And this rear-end is only propelled by the rear wheels. So the faster you would have to go. Unless you had a bigger diff of course
ground effect UAZ🤣
The reason it wasn’t cutting all of it comes down to speed and how fast the blades are spinning.
Great stuff!

Less time spent mowing = more time spent burping, scratching and beer-drinking.
now that is a lawnmower just needs aircon and automatic gathering of the clippings and it's a seller for sure
the uaz of death...i love it!
Why isn't there a link to he music being used?
Oh man, this would make such a winner in Scrapheap Challenge!!!
with the sub-dash-cam a perfect product - license it - sell it - the UAZmower
Try drawing a crop circle or the Garage 54 logo in the field, just for the hell of it! Wonder what the farmer will say!!
Worked great, and I'm sure it would be much better if it was built to last. GREAT JOB
When the drone camera zoomed out, I was sure there was going to be a giant gentleman's sausage drawn in the field.
it worked perfectly... great video
lol this was actually pretty satisfying to watch the road get trimmed
A sickle bar mower on the front with about a foot of overlap on both sides would be epic! 😀
Add bolt. On domes o pistons fo more compression.
You could’ve gotten a skinny driveshaft and joints to attach the blade to. Then, to rotate it, weld a gear to the end of it and cut in the the cars driveshaft and weld a gear there and weld it all back together and then support both driveshaft gears together. Boom
i mean it's impractical because weight crushing the grass you drive over but.... funny :D
Crazy how well it worked, lot of power drift trike didn't want anybody to forget that should be the next project 😁
I love the visuals, shots of a beautiful, pristine meadow, then you guys roll in with a big ugly uaz to tear it all up 😂
put smaller tire on the back to increase blade speed and grind them sharp. most bushogs cutters have one long blade sharp at each end 👍👍
Came for the video, stayed for the bangin' soundtrack.
So that is where the crop circles are coming from
Hmm. Power the back wheels from the transfur cases add another transfur case and blades bladed on both sides so the cut when you gotta back-up maybe?
Attach brooms and you can sweep out your garage or clean off the driveway.
Bloody awesome!!
Try it with really thick weed whacker blades!
Dam i would like to have that truck !
Thats no junk lada
Wow a ladamower! Now you just need to add a grass box.
we know this is 2 years old so future build idea... If a single blade doesn't quite cut the mustard in tall grass, then we need more blades. I say put another diff on the back of the transmission and use a two-blade system. The first takes down the tall grass and the second gives the buzz cut for a finished look.
it being a locked diff... they could just attach propshaft again to make four wheel drive
Propshaft lenght too long
This is the awesome thing I've seen today
You need to put a curve on the edge of each blade to throw the grass out look at how mower blades are designed.but good work
On every video I'm thinking if they just gave it another hour to make the most needed modifications after the first test, it could turn out much better! The blades in this case should've been thicker and sharpened better.
mount it to the roof as a propeller and try to lift up :D
Now make a pickup unit for it and a hopper to collect the grass
Next time... replace the blades with lengths of chainsaw chains...
I would say replace them with running chain saws but the fuel might not make it to the right place with the forces lol.
Keep ya head up man u feel me tough times man God bless ya love your vids
that was great its an hell of an idea
I was going to say, if you got into some real big weeds, that little rig just wouldn't have the hp needed, even the UAZ has it's limits, lol, thanks for sharing guys.

GENIOUS .... 1070% Success
Lol he said blyat 😂
and in English essence
🤣
Hear me out if you weld that diff and make a custom shaft you can technically still have 4 wheel drive and more power to the mower extension. And as for the blade use eighth inch steel
Nice idea!
I love you all keep coming up with awesome ideas.
Not me wanting to see a whole Feild done with this lol
Needs the blades angled to suck the grass up, nice to see all the English speaking people still watching :)
With that lawnmower, you can make some design in the field that an alien made
great job guys. greats from the Netherlands
Bro this music is sick what is it????
2:40
They really need to start putting this music in the description.
Reminds me of the dude who put a spinning blade on a robot vacuum, with a motion sensor, it did not end well for him, although it did end very quickly for him.
How wheel work it out was great
wow, you got grass growing already? ours is just now turning green
It would have been better putting the blade on the front differential instead of the rear, that way you could engage it when shifting to 4wheel drive. Great experiment though!😎👍✌️
You guys should do this again with better blades
