@@engineeringgarage2993 thank you

@@bitslicesales7223 it's a short shock and even if it bottoms out it wont even hit the steering wheel.... When driving vehicles like this, certain risks have to ge acknowledged and accepted. Oh...no one said this will be the final place or design. But thanks.

@@darrellstephen3085 hahahahha... thanks !!!!

@@darrellstephen3085 thanks

@@jasonosburn6700 still have them, still pushing to finish them as well

No they are Russian jet fighters try to find the this new invention to destroy it!

@@darrellstephen3085 needed something in the background besides the shop fans. Hahahhha

@@darrellstephen3085 The thing is a RT does not have the same characteristics as a 4 wheelers. You dont get the lifts and weight changes that a 4 wheeler has. Making it unique. A triangle is one of the strongest shapes known, not the square or rectangle that can be warped in a 3D environment. This eliminates the need for a stiff swaybar (essentially the same thing as a monoshock) or really stiff shocks on each side. There are more positive reasons for this....but I am no expert. I try and make mistakes...I post them for others to learn from. As I hope I do too. If this doesn't work... I can easily go to a standard shock on each side... and I still might. But for now... here I am, trying. Check out the Sportcycle. It was successful on the track. Unfortunately the Yahoo groups has gone away loosing all the track videos and the daily driving videos.

@@suzukilj50 I have seen this a few times. Some more complex and some simple like this. Not originally designed for everyday use or bad roads. But a RT doesn't have the same body roll as a 4 wheeler so you lose some independence from side to side but gain no body roll and improved handling....or so it says. I'm going to try it and see what happens. I can always drop back and return to conventional 2 shocks, one per side. Thanks !!!!! We shall see

@@toddwright8746 This is probably always a compromise between cornering stability and suspension comfort. My Hudson was so low with the original shock absorbers from the previous owner that they were at the end stop and the suspension travel was only the rubber stops. It drove well on smooth roads in curves. However, on potholes, bumps or steps you would be shaken around violently and you would get blows all the way to your back. That was rubbish. The suspension stayed that low, but I now have rebound shock absorbers and the strongest stabilizer that was available on the R5....and shock absorbers that I can now adjust. Only in combination with compression and rebound, but at least...

@@suzukilj50 riding the bumpstops is no fun.... at least here I will have the shock engagement. I can see that I may have too step back and give more thought. But this has been done before and i have been wanting to try.... now is the chance.... Thanks

@@emmetjones2179 haaaahaahahahahaahahha Cant wait for thw full movie

Whooohoooo

First.... thank you. Now I do both. I build on the fly and design in 3D. BUT.... I have found that 3D in the model doesnt always work in real life. So if I model it... I will usually sit in a position with wood propped up....document a few key things and put those limitations into 3D. And work around them... then play in the real world with it. So I can do both and I use both together to get my desired results. Thanks again

If I may... not a TRex. I am not a fan of them happy for what they have done to keep RTs alive but not a fan. The old Morgans and some others I love. RTs are kinda my thing.. Thank you!!!!!!

@toddwright8746 oh okay sorry I just assumed you were modeling a TRex I never heard of the Morgans before they look interesting.

@@justinconway4913 your good. No worries. And thanks for the comments. Much appreciated.

Unfortunately the offset of the rear compared to the front make them different....if I had thought about that ... Haa. Where were you when ?!?!?! Haahahahhah

Thank you sir

Thank you !

Thanks brother !

Thanks man... much appreciated. Hard to get much in with 60+ at work, the h ok use and still moving from NewMexico back to Tennessee..... Thanks

Great info... thanks. I beat a piece of square tube that was only welded along 1 side... bent it as well... it just bent. No break.... Thanks man !!!!

I was shocked.... and impressed. Seems to be doo, penetration is good... love this little machine.... And thanks !!!!!!

@@toddwright8746 Where is the SU3 ? After all the work you have done on it

@@Carter0steph I have all supplies to start a composite fuel cell. That has been a huge delay for me.

I have done this before as well. The old tshirt way keeps it backed and I dont have to remove anything. Just let it all adhere. If I want later I can use spray foam to fill this piece and add a little more flotation. Haahhaahhaa...

Fancy camera or getting to see how it's done. I am going to vote see it as it happens.

Anything much bigger than a 150/200 would require a different front end/tires/wheels...these are good for about 40/50. But that is the design stage as well. Also as small as it is, 40/50 is going to feel like it is flying and this was not meant for highway speeds. Welding is 110v .030 gasless. All I currently have... thanks man !!!

@@toddwright8746 I have an OLD Harborfreight 110V Flux Core welder that I use for tack welding. Paid $10 for it at a thrift store 20+ years ago. Nice thing with no gas is you can weld in hard to get into areas and not have the Nossel blocking the view.

I'm working on a set of plans. At some point I hope to release them.

Thank you

Heck yeah....

Thanks....

Appreciate the words.... thank you

Thank you

Thank you. The swing arm is a Triumph Daytona. Front shocks are R6 and the bell cranks are R1.
