Not that i do any rock crawling or anything but i think that thing sucks,  ;D I mean come on don't you guys think that just takes all the fun out of it lol. how are you suppose to roll over and dent up your doors and scratch your paint will all that suspension. On a serious note though, i do think he should have that thing on hydros so he could lift himself up in certain areas where he was bottoming out. ;)

Sorry chief! I thought it took alot of patience and design to build it. The fact taht he can do what he can with it is amazing. Anyone can go out and dent up there body work and if he wanted to he could do that as well. Just my opinion though.  8)

it doesnt seem like it has suspension.. looks like a hydraulic setup from a tractor loader.. instead of running a loader, they are running the arms for the wheels.. so its that really suspension?  maybe im wrong..

Do you guys read stuff or not? It's CHAIN DRIVE as the title says.


"there is a ford 9" located under the drivers seat, which drives the chains, i'm not sure how he modified the end of the axle to fit the gears, but that's how its done. at the wheels are gear reduction hubs, they aren't too thick. its explained? in the video description somewhat."
