Camaro Go Kart Gets Air Suspension!
![Camaro Go Kart Gets Air Suspension! Camaro Go Kart Gets Air Suspension!](/pic/camaro_go_kart_gets_air_suspension_/Y3JNU0pBWldtU3c_.jpeg)
Starting. Another day on the Camaro. First. Things first. About. This piece of inch-and-a-quarter solid, and I'm gonna use it to, design. That axle I was talking about in the last video I, don't, it doesn't have a key way in it so we won't use it permanently but I'll be able to build everything, and get the bearings in the right place and figure, it all out with this and. I'm, gonna use my new favorite tool I was, skeptical about this thing because of the you, know blade, that looks like it's for cutting wood but. It, cuts metal like butter. I. Was. An inch-and-a-quarter solid, and it took just. A few seconds, to cut. And. It's so smooth yeah so smooth so clean and cold, to the touch, it's. Still too long to fit in there the warmest but it's going in right about there just under, this, and. It will be the. Suspension. Pivot point, and the, jack shaft for the, drivetrain, so, it's. Gonna be multi-purpose. So, I've got another complicated. Bend. Notch, situation. Going on here this. One goes. Right. Here. And. It ties. The. Center frame into. The outer frame it comes around and up here. And. Then. I can add in some supports. Underneath. Here as well but the main thing this is for is to support the carrier bearings for the jack shaft. I'm, getting ready to mount. The jack, shaft. In the Camaro. And these. Are the flam, Jets that, hold it hold the bearings and I. Want, to mount them a little differently and I want them to be lighter. So I'm gonna cut them on those lines and. Then. I can mount it, I'll. Use that surface to weld to, weight. Reduced, weight, reduced significantly. I'm. Working on the carrier, bearings for the swingarm that are gonna mount on the jack shaft this, is a chunk of shaft this. Is the carrier bearings that we have for, everything, else and they, work they're fine. They're large bulky, and heavy and, they. Have. Built into them some play scientists, are like, adjustability. For angle which we're not gonna need on the swing arm and I just want it to look cooler and, we, don't have enough of these so. I'm. Gonna make some this. Is a. Idler. Or this is a tensioner. For a Subaru timing belt tensioner, pulley. This. Is the center part out of it which has all sorts of weird crap going on with it but if, I take this and throw in the lathe that's, what's in there right now I'm. Gonna turn, it out to a larger, diameter which. Will fit on the. Into the quarter shaft and then. I can just weld my, swing arm directly the outside of this bearing race and. Hopefully not Koko bearing too much. So, I've got both of these sleeves done and now. I'm making. A set screw, hole. So they don't spin on the axle, they. Have these little notches in them already which, is kind. Of a convenient place to drill in a set screw. Then. You got a through reddit yep. I. Won't. Spin, there. You go, it's. Perfect, yeah, and. It looks super cool and sleep yeah, these are very high quality bearings. Comparatively. Oh yeah. Their timing belt bearings they're meant to last about a hundred thousand miles of spinning around forever so yeah. So. This is gonna be the sleeve that goes on these bearings. And. Then I'll be able to weld to it it's a little bit small. But. I'm gonna slice. It and then spread it open a little bit and then, it can then I'll well to not, involve onto the backside. Of it that way it'll just, clamp. Onto these so, that I don't have to weld directly to the barre. So. I've got this piece, spread. Out a bit, around the bearing. And. Then I've got a nut a bolt and one simple, little bracket. And. I'll just weld the bracket to one side and the nut to the other. Being. Clamping. Bearing. Housing goodness business. I've. Got both my little, clampy. Things made bearings. Are on there with. Their set screws. So. Now. I can weld to those and. Make. A swing arm that goes from here, back. To these. Then. It'll, be time, to mount some shocks which, is exciting I'll show you those in a minute but, first we're, gonna take a break to talk about this week's sponsor Cove. They. Sent us the. Cove. Commuter. Which is a really cool portable. Bluetooth. Speaker it. Sounds, awesome and, it, gets so. Loud. So we've been using the commuter for a couple weeks now and we absolutely love it it has a mode select, for indoor, and outdoor, and it, has the slider to skip songs which is super handy because, most of the time our phones are in the house where, there is service and then we're playing music out in the garage and random playlists and then we get a song we don't like them guys all, the way around and go back so, having the skipper on there is super. Handy it's, also. Water-resistant. A battery lasts over six hours I think we got eight out of it one time we've, also been using the commuter for editing, when I'm tired of my headphones, I just, take a break switch on over to the commuter, you guys got to check out the reviews on this thing everybody.
Digs It and I've. Saved the best for last, so Cove. Is giving, you guys. 65%. Off the commuter the link is in our description and you have to use the code. Gh6. Five that'll. Get you, 65%. Off this speaker, one, of the best deals we've had on the channel so we're excited about that so, let's get back to it. Don't. Shoot. This. Is the moment we've all been waiting for. Our. Air shocks arrived, these. Are. They're. Just off of Amazon they're just you know a generic. Air. Shock for a mountain bike. They're, a little more expensive little higher quality, than the spring shocks that we got for the Jeep originally, and also. This thing is going to be doing considerably. Less jumping. But, these are super cool right now I have all of the air out of it and. You. Can squish it down pretty easily. They. Have about two inches of travel a little over two inches I think and. Then they have, rebound. Adjustment, so. You, can. Turn this knob all the way up and, then. It. Rebounds, way slower really. Good for low riding yeah. And. Just, first cushy. Mission general you know, so. Then. They. Have these two air chambers, so if, I put some air jam there in this one. It. Extends a little bit faster but you can tell it's still at the slowest rebound setting and, then. Now. I. Can't. Even move it these, can hold like I don't know what the max is on a 180, psi, 200 psi a lot and this, is only. 120. In the air compressor, and even with that like I can't even move them so that would be plenty of adjustment, in terms of stiffness. But. Then what's really cool is. They. Also have a lock out so, you can walk it out and. Make. It certainly travel at all, so. You. Know here's normal, and then, lock. It out. No. Travel, and you, can engage the lock out at any. Any. Amount of travel on the suspension. So. You can put it there and then lock it out and it. Will slowly extend. Unless. This. Is a really cool Park. Part, that's most useful for us if. You put air in the, negative chamber. So. What, that means is we can lower it to our desired ride height by letting air out of this chamber and. We'll. Hook up a system later where we can hook all four socks together so, we can air them up or down at the same time, and. So. We can let air out of this chamber put air in this chamber and then, it'll be at a lower ride height and if we want it ultra stiff for. Track, or drag, racing or whatever we, can just engage the lockout and then no, matter how little air is in it it, won't travel. I've. Got the shock. Mount on the swingarm done. And tacked on and, now. I'm working on a bar to, make the other shock mount and, it's also more strengthening, for the frame connects. These centerpieces to the outer one and. Those. Notches are looking nice. And tight. Well, might have taken me you know more than half a day just to mount these two shocks but they. Sure look nice. As. Soon as I tack these two brackets on we. Can change. The air pressure in them and seal it for travel looks like. Dang. Actually. Quite a bit of travel to here yeah, it's gonna have a lot. Yeah. So we will have a rally, jump, mode here. Dang. Hold. It oh. That's. So cool just bumps, up when you touch it. Wow. That's, nice. Tang. And. That's with no air in either chamber, just did go. For, chambers, so like with, no air it just sits right down onto the axle so when we have these shocks all, in here and when everything's. Done. We. Will do. Some sort of a central air, for. It so that we can control it on board. But. I think, we, won't even need a pump or a very large tank, because. We can essentially, just adjust. The. Height of it by moving air from one side of the shock to the other so. If, we have air in this chamber, it. Makes the suspension, stiffer, and ride higher if, we have there in this chamber it. Makes it ride lower, so. We, might be able to just have sort of a bleed valve that bleeds, it from one side to the other in. Which case we won't need a compressor, because it won't be losing air every time we change it but, also we wouldn't really need a compressor anyway because it's not like we're gonna go up and down 20 times and even. If we did it probably take an air tank that big to do it because there's so, little volume, in these but we have shocks now rear, suspension. So, now I just need to, trust. This whole swing arm together so, the both sides are connected because right now they can kind of move a little bit independently. And. Then. It. Would be time to start working on the front basically. So. You want to talk about your ex. Seriously. Talk. About my ex. So. Got. The swingarm. All braced, here with a nice X in the middle it's, probably excessively. Strong but it looks cool and it doesn't weigh much so the, rear suspension now, is essentially. Finished. So. There's. Gonna need to be some more bracing here and there and other stuff on the frame but, it's. About time to start working on the front suspension which. Is gonna be a bit, more complicated. Well, for. Starters did.
A Bunch of heim joints, I. Ordered. A pack of eight before. I came up with the. Idea of the rear suspension to it so that's more than we'll need but obviously. We'll use them, yeah. We've been burning through steel, like nobody's business, yeah there's already 40 feet 40 feet of, 1 inch tubing used up in this in this, frame I saw, 40 feet in the back of my truck and I was like oh yeah that'll, do it nope. This. Thing's a little more complex than the, Mustang, that's. For sure but, I mean the Jeep has like 60, feet in it or something like that so yeah. So. For. The front spindles, we. Looked. Around and I couldn't really find anything I liked online. So, I'm just gonna make them and. These. Are those, little axle. Things adapters. That I made when we put, tires on the front of the snowmobile. For. That engine. Wow. And. You. Know they serve their purpose and they held up to the weight of a whole snowmobile, so, they'll hold up to the plate of this I'm. Just gonna cut these off and then I'll. You. Know I'll, make the rest of the spindle and this will weld on to it and that'll be the pivot. Point but this, is kind of basically, what the suspension, is gonna look like here not, sure exactly where the tire will sit but something. Like that, and. Then. These, two tubes will. Have these pivot points is you. Know. Probably. About that far apart just for strengthened. And so, that it clears the engine as it travels and then the. Shock I'll. Try to go pretty close to the outside of, this. A. Arm, there just because we. Don't need a whole lot of travel and I want to make it kind of a similar amount of travel to the back yeah. I'm gonna look through the. Spare parts, and see if I've got any bearings little work for the spindles because I actually want bearings in the, Jeep, and the Mustang just have little, bushings, or nothing, so. I want, these as, far as where they pivot, to. Have a bearing on so look and see if we have anything if not for pick. Something up at the store. So. After, looking. Through the bearing pile and, thinking, about things, I, did. Come up with some options for bearings but I came up with a better idea which, is to use the extra Himes that we have and use those instead of bearings for the steering pivot so.
I'll, Just have to Himes and they'll, be vertical like this and. That'll. Be the steering pivot so, it'll, fit in, there I have. This. Piece of pipe or, tubing whatever it is they. Can fit over there as a sleeve and then this. Will. Be the spindle, and that'll be welded on to there and I. Can do the I. Can. Have it at an angle for. Kpi. In, inclination, which is. A steering, geometry thing, that helps, with various. Things you can look at this. Anyway. It's a good thing so. It's. It's the angle of this which is the kingpin the steering, pivot point and then this is the spindle that the wheel goes on so. Instead. Of a couple of bearings and a bunch of fancy stuff on those and then the. Upside of that is that that'll also give us a little bit of camber adjustment so. With. These two. Heim. Joints here they'll. Both be fixed. To the end of the, suspension. Arm and. We. Can just adjust. The. Length of them to. Change the camber and, it won't be a huge amount of adjustment because with these two pieces being fixed, changing. Their, lengths. Makes. Strange. Things happen but they'll be a little bit of camber. Adjustment which, is super-sweet, we simpler don't. Have to buy any extra bearings, and, use. Up these extra Himes that we got so now, I didn't get any extra use, more. Boom. We. Got the master, plan for next week exactly. Awesome. So that's all we had time for this week next week we're gonna get a lot, more done, I'm actually standing, in the, new rally track there'll be a video on that coming soon guys. Just, thanks for watching the videos your support, your emails that's just insane, like with the koozies we, sold out of koozies in one, day I ordered, a ton more, and then, we're already almost, sold out again of pre-orders. So, thank. You guys so much for that it's, insane, what Ethan, and I are gonna be able to do we're gonna put all that money back. Into the channel back, into the build just. Making things is cool, and as big as we can so, thanks. Again for watching we'll, have more, out here back, for you soon we're. Gonna get, fpv. Drones so we can film I don't know if you guys seen the Formula D videos where the few drones are like all up in it but we're, gonna try our hand at I know it's not easy to fly those things but we. Got one in the mail we're. Gonna rip. Around with Cinderella, and try to get some really good footage for you guys so, yeah. We're just excited, we're. Happy to keep showing you guys all, this crazy stuff so, thanks. For the comments, thanks for the messages, you, guys are the best we'll be back soon.

These chassis systems you guys are building, along with the little car bodies makes me think you may have potentially a way to get majorly supported by some company making a licensed line of those little monsters! \(^_^)/ Just license the chassis designs out, some company mass produces them with various plastic, fiberglass, carbon fiber or aluminum bodies and sells them at dealerships while you guys just continue to invent and design! (~_^)-b
I'm planning on fitting air ride to my scooter, those air shocks are exactly what I have been trying to find, could you please put a link to where you got them? Love the crazy stuff
The problem with mtb shocks is they need a high maintenance (the little every 50 hours and the big 100 hours) i hope it will not be a problem :/
Using the heim joints on all the connections will probably give you too much movement and end up with slop at the wheel hub
I can't wait later
You can do this camaro with 3d printer for big size its gonna be comfortable and looks gonna be good
DONT HIT ANY BUMPS WITH THE LOCKOUT ENGAGED OR ITLL BREAK!!!!
You should go over your design process in the videos. I want to make a kart I just don't know how to start.
Love the red t shirt dude and fantastic fab work
Camaro the best
you are a god with metal man like no joke you do awesome work
Scotty kilmer does not approve of kove
1 pound disposable propane tanks are very easy to tap out and use as air tanks.
Awesome builds ! keep it up guys
17:25 this is why we can't have nice things XD
You guys gotta make blue prints of your work.. good standings on you videos. Great job.
Compressed air is not a fluid mate... can t just trickle it all from one side of the shock to the other
You can cut the key way in your lathe, if you want ill post a video to show you how.
You guys are awesome and clearly the most engineering savvy go kart you tubers. Keep it up this thing is sick
You guys get a LOT done in every episode. Impressive skills as usual fellas. Thanks.!
What blade is on that chop saw ?
$200 speaker for $70 sold.
Quality content is what I'm looking for in a YouTube video. Anyone can make a 10 minutes of video but not everyone can make it interesting and pleasing to see. You guys personality has a lot to do with your success also. Love from your Canadian neighbour.
Can you please build me one thanks
youtube channel "TDS kart cross" did a mini drift camaro, it's a wonderful job, check it out!
Could we talk about if you could build me one if I buy all the stuff and pay you for your work
Make a wide body kit for the car that will be sick
You guys deserve the recognition. For real. Keep it up. Always awesome vids.
"High quality"bearing, till you hit it with the mig!
I'm guessing you both know of each other: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7brEF1xdfUE
if you ever have any fpv questions let me know. i have my own fpv channel.
De brasileiro só tem eu aqui
Walks in to bike shop. Could I please get four rear shocks overhauled?
Snowmobile power wheels next?
I REALLY can't believe how much this channel has grown in such a 'short' time, I mean with the content, the builds, the videography , the tools. Keep up the GREAT work guys!
This is literally the best fab/motorsports channel on YouTube right now!! The cinematography and music are the icing on the cake and I cannot wait to see what you guys will bring as the channel grows and allows you to get better equipment!!!
I saw carsandcameras do the same thing with the jack shaft / swing arm
Next project idea. Raptor 6x6
That saw blade blew my brain.
Your vids just keep getting better... Better camera work... Better editing... And beautiful work and welds...
Y'all should do a vw bus
Luv this channel, especially enjoy the power wheels builds
But won’t the pressure just find equilibrium between the 2 compartments without a compressor?
Life..... what is it? Idk....... but whatever it is..... I don’t believe it involves...... a tiny dragster? A tiny bumblebee? A toy car for kids with the power of my 92 Dragster? I.......I..... I can’t think Rn.
should call it the "Kartmaro"
Hi
Ethan! You are a fricking genius in my books! The knowledge you have and the ability to make the things you see in your head just blows my mind! I have no skill when it comes to things like that at all! Keep up the great work guys. I love seeing new videos posted from you!
They should go to hoonigan
Keep up the content nice work. I just ordered the Kove speaker
Че это?
-4wd power wheels -Hauler power wheels for other power wheels
Dang you guys jumped like 200, 000 subs since the last time I watched , congrats fellas!!
I don’t care what your building I will watch it just for you editing your videos are literally perfect and you are a creative fabricator!
Yall should make the gmc sierra that they sell at walmart
Keep up with the great work guys. Love it
recognized that fuji heavy bearing as soon as i seen it! great idea
Всегда приятно смотреть ваши выпуски
Y lo que hacen es lo máximo
El lugar es un paraíso..
Bro really inspiring to make my own powerwheel cart. These carts are so dope!!
I love how these guys are so creative...... love the step by step updates..... Awesome Guys!!!!!
that frame design is genius
Do A ram or dodge truck
subscribed here from Brazil
make it awd, that would be amazing.
It would be too easy to strip a tiny emergency compressor apart, and mount it .
Hello, Fantastic
You guys should run the exhaust out the back where it is supposed on a regular Camaro.
what an amazing engineering brain this guy has
grind hard wants to do FPV? I'm stoked on that idea, I'll come out and show y'all how to set them up and fly.
So glad you didn't weld to that bearing, you guys are better than that!
Im dutch and the shock absorbers i thought the shock absorbers were hertog jan beer bottles
Cheers for the huge discount. Been looking for exactly that kinda thing. I never buy anything out of the us, cos painful shipping. With the discount tho, i can handle it. Seriously tho, USA, you wonder why international trade suffers? $60 shipping for something smaller than 2 coke cans? China has you trounced there. Maybe $15 shipping from china. If not free. However, glad for a discount that makes it economical. Grindhard! GOOOOOOO!
Must b nice to live in the mountains, without worrying about disturbing neighbors...
You guys should make a car for josh kalis daughter
Get a jeep hurricane ist a really big power wheel for a rock bouncer build
Cant wait to see what powerwheels you build next. I'm voting for a tesla electric go kart. You can buy a tesla powerwheels too. Do a 25000 watt electric go kart with a tesla powerwheels body. Upvote this so they see it.
If you spell Grind Hard Plumbing Co. in scrabble... you win forever.
I like it
Do you sell these?
Why not use the snowmobile front suspension?? Just re work the A arms a bit and its all there.
If ur having reception problem with WiFi and easy solution is to get an access point. Im shooting my wifi almost 200 feet away to my workshop. Perfect reception
once again amazing ☺️
Next one has to be a supercar
What's the song 7:43
The upper and lower air chambers of the rear shocks cannot transfer air from one chamber to the next without compression or vacuum. The air will only equalize between the chambers. You may be able to use the vacuum of the engine to perform these functions. The easiest way is to just add a pressure tank. ;) You will also need to setup a pressure release to lower.
That’s mtb rear suspension?
Once upon a time in the backwoods of idaho... keep up the good work
Build something with tracks
The boy smart man I love your craftsmanship its amazing
Las suspensiones van con una mancha especial para suspensiones
Pretty cool being able to watch a build like this from its conception.. Thanks for taking us along guys ! You do great work !
Yet again:Typical Youtuber intentionally saying "excited" @6:15, @7:40, and @20:48 (most painful). It's becoming too unbearable to watch.
Thank goodness I missed the old music
Watch out with those rods ends in bending on the front suspension. Ideally a spherical bearing would be used to link the suspension arm to the steering knuckle. Think about the difference between a ball joint and a tie rod end in a production vehicle suspension. The tie rod end transfers the linear motion of the steering system in tension or compression (pushing or pulling) and the ball joint supports the vehicle's weight. The main difference is the ball joint is supported all the way around by the control arm but the tie rod end joint is only supported at the end of the threaded stem. Up and down forces (vehicle weight), front to back forces and any torque at the wheel will be trying to bend the threaded portion of those rod ends if they are mounted on the knuckle side. Maybe they are big enough relative to the forces involved and it won't be an issue, but you wouldn't want a suspension failure on this thing. I imagine it'll be pretty fast. This will be especially important in rally mode. Left and right forces at the wheel will be inline with the axis of the threaded portion (tension and compression) and these are fine. With the lathe it would be simple to enlarge the ID of a tube to the proper size for a spherical bearing of your choosing, and even cut a grove for a snap ring. Then the housing could be welded to some tubes to make an A-arm. I think rod ends will be OK on the inboard side of the A-arm as long as the shocks are kept as outboard as possible, but ideally spherical bearings would be used there too. Up and down forces at the wheel will want to pivot the suspension arm at the shock mount and translate to bending forces in the rod end threads at the inboard side. Keeping the shock mount as outboard as possible will reduces the bending forces in the inboard rod ends provided the up and down forces at the wheel (vehicle weight) remain the same. Whatever you choose to do put a washer larger than the ball size of whatever bearing you use under the head of the bolt used to attach it. This will keep the suspension together if the ball decides to work itself loose in the socket. In the below case the nut is on the rod end side (this is a steering tie rod) but the nut flange will prevent the rod end housing from working itself free from the ball and being completely disconnected from the knuckle. Disconnected suspension or steering arms usually lead to bad days. As Mr. Mackey would say: Don't have a bad day, mmmmmmmmmmkay. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/maxima.org-vbulletin/358x598/picture_php_pictureid_28591_99aeed88a4df90d5368b135ee41a02e63eee5002.jpg This was a project I worked on to correct the suspension geometry on a lowered MacPherson strut front suspension: https://maxima.org/forums/advanced-suspension-chassis-braking/632360-diameter-ball-joint-hole-lca.html Note the spherical bearing housing in post 29 which was welded to a lower control arm to allow the pivot point of the suspension to be lowered. This puts the lower control arm at an angle closer to stock which affects how the steering forces at the wheel act on the vehicle's center of gravity. This changes how the vehicle rolls when cornering. The attachment point for the steering arms to the knuckle needed to be lowered by a similar amount to keep bump steer in check. A spherical bearing was used instead of a rod end on the lower control arm to keep the forces from bending the rod end stem. Sorry for the novel. You guys are doing great. It is really interesting to watch your evolution through the difference projects. The lathe was such a solid addition to the shop. Keep it up!
Sous titre en français svpppppppp pleaseeeeeeee thanks
I could make some of the chassis tubing as an air tank
4cylinder motorcycle engine next pls
Led light
Power wheels tank build.....
Since this ride is looking so nice you should paint the frame, motors, and what note to make it really clean
The body doesn't do it justice to whats underneath as a frame :) Wonder how often you get / or would get approached to make them for people if it was available, always a good way to keep having fun and earning while you do it (even if only weekends)
I want those shocks, just to have
Love the song choice goes good with the vid! Now i want to build one.
"So you wanna talk about your X" "which one? There's a lot of them these days"
Super jacked on how the channel is going and progressing as a whole from quality of the edits and the quality of the builds. Keep taking ass and kicking names
Great video! What camera you guys using to record?
The Camero might be the best Looking yet aha
That saw is awesome
You guys should do i drag limo next
you guys should build a powerwheels delorean with rear engine. maybe it can go over 88mph...
This is a really good idea. Do they make one?
yes! yes! yes! transformer edition in the make!
Should do an escalade power wheels with chrome rims
why don't you make a camaro body kit
Kick ass cart
good call on the heims for the front spindles. thats exactly how i built the adjustable front axle for my race mower
Add subtitles in portuguese I don't understand English very much I'm a fan of BRAZIL♥️♥️♥️
Y’all should do a lifted ride on truck
Ur ace dudes I always wait with great anticipation for ur next release! More , more ,more !!!
O
I got unsubscribed! Resubcribed
I believe you will need a pump and air tank set up, just an example here but say you've got 10 psi in one chamber and you want to move that 10 psi from that chamber to the second one, that pressure will only disperse out between the 2 chambers, at first glance youd think well ok, 5 psi per chamber but that's not the case, now volume comes into the equation, even if both chambers are the same size (of equal volume) you still have to take into consideration the hose or line you have connected to the two chambers, that space (volume) has to be filled also so you started out with 10 psi in one chamber and now you may just have 4 psi between the 2 chambers and that hose because with more volume added to the same air the less pressure you will have unless you ad air to it.
Where have you guys found is the best place to source tubing and heim joint sets? In my area there is absolutely nothing available locally.
A small fire extinguisher would work for an air tank, and look like the onboard.
you should do the barbie dream camper power wheels next!
Man i love these builds but this music is slowly getting to me
Do a wide body kit
With no joke how much would you sell one of those for
What if you took a 4 Wheel Dr. quad and stuck that in a power wheel I like to see that one maybe do an Escalade all-wheel-drive
You guys are doing very good work and and I like the way it’s turning out.
Just a suggestion but would you be able to supercharge this motor instead of keeping it n/a like a couple other builds?
Just got a Barbie Jeep for $1 at a garage sale yesterday. Gonna keep it pretty tame for the kids but I’m already looking up mods. Keep up the awesome work fellas, my favorite channel right now!
Would be pretty cool if u make one with 2-stroke engine, keep up the good.
Never use an air compreser on mtb air shocks !
Cheap Chinese knock-offs... Check. Air compressor... Check. Inevitable failure... Check.
I’ve been wondering when the FPV drone was going to happen. The chase footage will be
where are you guys at? I specifically build and fly fpv chase quad-copters
@Grind Hard Plumbing Co. I think you guys need to take an Electric handicap scooter ( https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1322/8017/products/panther20cs_1024x1024.jpg?v=1501097449 ) and make it go FFFFFFAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Do a dropped silverado next
Y'all getting better and Quicker on the power wheels
I don’t know if you guys will see this or not but if you do your next build should be the grave digger power wheel the one that has 24v battery because it already has a basic metal chassis and comes with suspension that you would just need to replace instead of a complete suspension build. It looks sweet Sita high and the Jeep needs a buddy to romp and send with. I’ve been watching for a while now and just wanted to say you guys have come so far and your quality just keeps going up and up and up. Can’t wait to see you guys blow up because it’s definitely gonna happen. Keep building and having fun. Like so they can see it.
4:01 nice biceps bro
Favorite YouTube channel
Can you make a video on Wednesday
New Sub here, I HAVE to see this thing completed!
awesome, instant sub.
Ok so I don't know about these little cars but I do know about DNM and other Mountian bike shocks you can buy a shock pump for probably 25 bucks and it screws on to these so you can get the PSI dialed perfectly also just a tip these are designed to work with linkages that have progression ratios so you might look to see if they make progression tokens for these so you can run the pressure really low without bottoming out
Next car should be a Mazda Repu with a 13b in the back
Next power wheels project should be banshee powered
it probably a good idea to clamp the balljoints between two large washers , prevent them from springing off the holder the wheel bend upward and one of the front corners digging intoo the ground should the ball pop out
Any tips you guys have for anyone wanting to build their own power wheels kart?
im happy to know my favorite builders on yt are from my home state wa keep it up guys
Where can I go for someone to build me a frame for power wheel go kart
Can I buy one ?
You need to get some sponsors for your videos and get some stickers on the car body. Autometer etc.
อยากใด้อะ
Нихуя не понятно, но очень интересно
Sick build!
boy those dnm shocks are so cheep compared to fox and rockshox mtb rear shocks good deal though
This guy is so much like my dad. He just starts from scratch and no tutorials
It's getting better. Want to see it run!!
sick ass fuck
I remember when you guys were building the bumper for the BMW Ute. So much improvement in your tube fabrication skills!
Better start brushing up with some Bardwell videos if you plan on getting any good at FPV. Cool vids though keep it up
How much does one of these builds usually cost ?
Loved the song
You guys should do a kids car bed that holds a twin mattress. Call it the sleeper. It will be twice as big as the power wheelz cars.
You guys are awesome i love all your builds
Not even tryna be weird but what state are they in it looks so ooo nice with the mountains in the back of some older videos and the roads are so nice
As a service manager of a bike shop I would not recommend doing just about everything you did or are planning on doing with the shocks. You should get a shock pump not an air compressor. The negative and positive chambers will balance per the shocks design so that plan won’t work. and lock out is designed to be locked out at the top of the travel. They are supposed to be set to a certain pressure and adjust rebound and compression that’s all. Love the content and don’t mean to be all negative here but I definitely wouldn’t do that if I were you.
Next powerwheel build shuld be 4x4!!
You two are awesome and I cannot think of two better people to represent for Sandpoint!
Wtf you do with the suspension
Вы крутые , ребята . Смотрю вас давно , и вы радуете меня ))
Can you please do more Tacoma content!
that's a sweet deal on that speaker, just picked one up !
De cuántas pulgadas es la tubería? Y. Calibre ?
Great channel
You won't be able to dump air from one side of the shock to the other side. You're just talking crazy now.
@Grind Hard Plumbing Co i actually dont know, but maybe if you search deep enough... or else, just build a front end and a rear end that looks like the dmc. and dont forget the gullwing doors lmao
PEASE ADDDDD!!!!!!! You guys got to get a power band exhaust in this one. Would sound more sporty. Go all out on this one. Lights horn everything that can be imagine...
Watching at 320 a.m. watched all the triumph vids. Moved onto these.. love em
Awsome as always your building skills are fantastic to watch
Have already got the Kove Commuter, and it’s friggin awesome! Lasts ages and is super loud and high quality, used mine on the building site and the sound goes forever, it’s also experienced a few knocks and she keeps on truckin!
I’d love to see the exhaust come out where the real cars exhaust comes out. I don’t know how you’d do it but I’m sure you guys can do it easily
You can use bicycle suspension and it is harder.
That iron worker must be sooo nice, removing the extra material from that thick flange like nothing. Awesome build! I'm all about the power wheels now. Question: What type of steel are you using, DOM?
You guys should do a cantilever front suspension setup. With the shock sitting horizontal either slightly forward than the arms or slightly behind the arms. Like an F1 car.
Really enjoy the editing ya do. The music in back ground that doesn’t cover your voices and then ramps up at different moments. Not mention the epic builds y’all do!
Gawe opo kang?
Put locking casters on the welding table.
Legal
Hehe I have one of those on my mtb
How much would u sale me the barbie car/mustang
camaro should be much fun than the jeep
Wow, looking really good Guys! Thanks, Rich.
why is the guy behind the camera talking so slowly and has to repeat what is being said it's annoying
Next power wheels should be a lifted mud truck/work truck
You dudes are just killing it
Just thought of this, since you guys are going pro in making awesome toys, you should get Grind Hard posters in the shop, show off your brand
I can't wait to see her ripping around.
Make the front softer than the back and more toe out in the front and put more toe in in the back
For this amount of work please just go with a ktm 525
Is that 1” tubes?
I'm supposed to be taking the transaxle off of my riding mower so I can either swap the pulley, if it's ribbed, or put new bearings in it. But I've been watching video after video from you guys! Now I want to put that suspension on my mower lol and after the Odessy videos, however it's spelled :) - I want to change up my Yerf Dog 2 seater. Y'all have some cool projects and that rally track brings back so many memories from Lancaster, California - the high Desert dunes and wooded areas around big ravines (like huge holes in in the ground for dumping concrete and pavement) . It's surreal, I'm 35 now and moved to Sioux Falls, South Dakota when I was starting the 8th grade. So yeah, thanks for bringing back amazing memories, the best of the ones from my childhood anyways... $h*t happens, life, but I wouldn't change a thing. Our past made us all who we are today. Thanks again for doing these videos, they really mean a lot more than a lot of people will ever know. You guys make life less depressing and the hints of doing things that are good, so much better than TV and movies. The negative vibes are bs and everywhere, the hatred... it's nice to escape and dive into inspiration. Don't change what Y'all are doing and thank you again! Hooah! -Nick Brown Ps To the haters, I sing.. "B*TCH DON'T KILL MY VIBE!"
cut off saw is sweet hardly any sparks either.......
updates??
Do u guys sell thez? U would kill it,
Y'all should make a Corvette that goes faster than the Barbie Jeep
I would pay to get one made...Could you guys build me one? How do I go by getting one done
You guys are amazing engineers.
The one guy is a literal genius. Lol
Those shocks are high tech, keep up the hard work boys!
Talk to much..like a chinese man..
Always buy least 20% extra, cause then if you screw up something, or its barely passable you wont just go "meh its good enough" or "meh gotta be good enough as i dont have enough material to make it again". Also why X brace the rear axle? Its now so stiff that it wont allow for instance one tire to drop into pothole, but whole car drops in on one side, limiting how much traction wheels have. You had spare parts so just use them to make it move independently. You can then add torsion bar for better cornering. We are now in territory of deadly fast, so dont go skimping out on construction, or you will soon win Darwin award.
I love Carsandcameras channel, but you guys get way more involved in building the chassis of your karts from the ground up! Thumbs up to you all for your skills with working metal!
Wau como hacen eso
Seria legal ter legendas em português para nós brasileiros, somos seus fãs, abraços
What blade is that you put on your chop saw?
Would you sell it
Put a wide body on it
A wide body kit from kid stance would be so dope on this
take it to SEMA
Forced induction that super sport!
What kind of saw blade was that? The one you cut the solid rod stock with
I'm a 58 yr old kid wanting to build a senderalla cart. Have a small garage full of tools and no room to build, but I am building a HF 10x20 canopy with a frame with in a frame and it's going to have a hard roof on it with in a couple of weeks. I started watching cars and camera's and then your channel came on and I started watching you guy's. I have been wanting to build a cart of some kind and you have giving me an idea that might work. Great channel I'll keep on watching you guy's having fun!
Went to get a koozie and a few others items, but the shipping to the UK is a killer. :(
next project should be a ram pickup power wheels pulling truck
Do an super/sport car next I’ve seen an nice Ferrari Poweredwheel
No one: Grind hard plumbing co: 1000cc poweredwheel helicopter
