July 13, 201015 yr Author almost drivable, all the drivelines and such are all done, drove it back and forth in the shop, still need to hook up the brakes ,mount gas tank , add flex bump stops , still needs a boat load of small stuff and some trick stuff , can be seen this Friday at Walker Valley has 90:1 Crawl Ratio
July 13, 201015 yr i can't wait!awesome scott. i wish i had gotten mine my shiot done by now.........cheers, brian
July 13, 201015 yr Author i can't wait!awesome scott.i wish i had gotten mine my shiot done by now.........cheers, brian its been alot of work and I still have tons to do, it will be drivable but not done, figure in a few months it will be where I want it to be
July 15, 201015 yr Author :banana: DONE, is always a relative term........cheers, brian:) WWhhooot... woo whooo Just got done drivin it around the place, first time its been out of the shed on its own power, love the low 90.1 to 1 gears, its so low I can start it in gear and walk beside the car steering it, and love the flex went up a side slope and flexed it out, the combination of low gears and Moochoo flexo makes this thing a differert Animal then the Soobie Wheelers ive used to , no more "gun it get a run at it", now its just slow and easy . I will be taken tomarrow off work to button it up for the mayden trip Friday at Walker, still needs a ton of work :banana:
July 15, 201015 yr Author Are you bringing another rig too? Jeff yes to tow the trailer, and maybe the coupe if I have a driver
September 17, 201015 yr Author had the Diff in the D/R welded up heres where it lives, hope to try it out this Sat.
September 19, 201015 yr Author Am i just really tired or is your engine in the passengers seat? both ,you are tired and the engine and transaxle are mid ship, so the trans acts as a 1.59 to 1 plus a 3.9 to 1 transfercase with 4.10 diffs its about 100 to 1 Crawl Ratio, goes awesome took it out today at walker , next to buy some 32 x 950 TSLs
September 19, 201015 yr That is some crazy innovation! You gotta post some more pics so i can wrap my head around it. I'm guessing street drivability is of no importance? lol. Cant wait to see some video of this thing crawling!
September 21, 201015 yr had the Diff in the D/R welded up heres where it lives, hope to try it out this Sat. I am having a real hard time wrapping my head around this invention of yours Scott. Please post a few pis of trans installed. Seems like it would come over to the drivers side and get in your way. :-\ I kinda get the idea but not really.
September 22, 201015 yr So did you weld the driveshafts to each end to the halfshaft hanging off of the inner CV's coming off the welded front diff(in the tranny)? I've thought of doing the same thing, but for running 90 degree boxes to run dual props on a boat.

September 28, 201015 yr How does it have a low range?it looks like a engine and FWD trans a mounted transfersly in the passenger seat but I don't see a transfer case. still looks awesome though.

September 28, 201015 yr yea, look closely, you can see the rear output/U-joint on the trans. not sure what's holding that in (presumably you're leaving it in FWD and shifting hi-lo separately). Awesome!! Firewalls? eh, who need's 'em!!
September 28, 201015 yr Author Awesome!! Firewalls? eh, who need's 'em!! They are being built, it was too hot and smelly the last time out, also , I wouldnt want a hose to blow
