The shock isn't extending because the spring isn't on it. The rebound is actually the valves inside the shock limiting the speed at which the spring re extends the shock. They have a 2 way valve stack so you can set compression speed separately from rebound speed, but you still need the spring. The nitrogen bladder is just more or less a cushion for the fluid and valves under a heavy loads,and keeps the fluid compressed so air bubbles don't form.
@@michaelblacktree "keeps the fluid compressed" yeah i wouldnt agree with that if i was u bud lmfao please tell me which liquid is getting compressed in that shock
@@bmxscape the shock oil obviously. It's filled and bled by running the valve stack up and down, and then the bladder cap is installed with the bladder deflated, and then pumped up to 150ish psi of nitrogen. This inflates the bladder which takes up more area, and keeps pressure on the shock oil so that it doesn't foam/bubble during use. What did you think?
@@shanewilliams8768 most liquids including oil are considered nearly non-compressible, therefore the oil is not being compressed, the gas inside the chamber is.
man i love to see this channel growing, i remember it used to have like, 75k subs and i always wondered why more people weren't subscribing! Keep up the good work, awesome build
I bought a gsx600 katana powered buggy last year. Then I found his channel. Buggies have become really popular over the last few years so it's perfect timing for this guy.
I've been watching you off and on for years. I got to say this is next level congratulations on the skill and knowledge you've obtained. May it at the very least give you the joy of being able to enjoy your creations
You want the front end wider than the rear when designing ifs long travel. Your shocks need to be rebuilt. Your wipers seals and possibly stantions are toast with that sort of stickiness in the shock travel. The shock rebound and compression is tunable as well using different shim stacks and seals and oil weights during rebuild.
Dude i give ur sister mad props for always helping u on ur builds. U should do a build for her or have her help u throughout a whole build then give it to her at the end. Just a thought for content. Amen to a great sister u have and much love to ya guys ❤❤❤❤❤
You can use the snowmobile engine for something like a gokart, something like rather b welding did, as you said, those torque converters are not made for that much load.
Cool build I’m doing a similar build but with twin I-beams up front and contemplating on a straight axle with anti-roll bar in the rear. Just to make it more like a pre-runner. Also a R1 engine.
You’re a great fabricator and builder , I’m really impressed especially considering your age. I purchased a cheap Chinese buggy and plan to do a GSX-R 1000 swap and that’s how I found your channel. Keep up the awesome builds !
Glad for you man, i know the weekly grind of getting all of the work and editing ready! You're doing great, slower pace will improve some quality. Also what i notice is.. building stuff and editing is creative work and i really struggle with creative work when overworked and tired as shit. Anyways, good work man, stay tuff
Snowmobile motors can easily move a 1,500lb machine depending on the engine size, mine has a genisis 998cc turbo charged 4 stroke with the boost turned up its producing 280 HP which will smoke your Hyabusa motor
Bad boy, bad boy...Whatcha goona do...? Glad it was just a warning. ;) This build looks Awesome. You've learned so much and keep improving each time. This one's going to be such a rad ride. Please wear full gear when testing. BTW: Your Sis is not only great with the camera, she's pretty strong too.That motor's not light. Can't believe how quick she's grown from an electric cart, to borrowing your cars soon :)
I love it ,I olso love the the amount of work you get into one video outstanding bro ,always enjoy and look forward to your videos ,the truck looks ligit tho ,your welding is proper,and your progression from build to build is impressive,you do a lot of self learning with your Nike approach (just do it ) experience is all a learning curv ,good stuff bro 😎
I just Stumbled across your videos today, and this makes me jealous. I've been dreaming of building my own trophy truck / sand car. I do have a ranger i have started in about 8 years ago and haven't touched it since. This defiantly gets me motivated to work on this stuff. I've been recently learning all the geometry needed for this kind of stuff and there is so much to learn it makes me nervous to even attempt something of scale. But like DMAXRYNO says "if there's anything you want in this world, you have to be willing to work for it." Keep the videos coming as I cant wait for more videos to come out Brotha. SUBSCIBED!!!
Next idea for you please see this!! Fab an all metal miniature driving street legal semi/tractor and trailer/toy hauler! Just a 1 or 2 seater! Diesel small diesel real stacks real trailer everything.
You built something and it is cool , nice job but it doesn't resemble a trophy truck in any way. Use regular air from your compressor to get the shock figured out. When you know what psi you need just purge the air and have it charged properly with nitrogen.
There’s got to be a powder coating shop near you willing to work with you on your builds. You go to all this trouble to make some amazing machines and the paint just isn’t durable and it starts to look bad pretty quick. Powder coating means you can beat on it and jet wash it regularly
Funny to see how videos are released. The hayabusa doesn't have the exterior cage on it. I've watched this 500 buggy get a lot of transformation. Kinda sad to see more of the yellow cut off... Only thing yellow was on the floorboard now.
Just wondering what do you do when your not doing this stuff like a regular job obviously you don’t have to answer love your content for sure and also what happened to the other cart you had that you brought over another UA-camrs house in the snow and he wanted to buy it or have you build one for him ?????? Do you still have it or did you sell your ????? Stay safe and have a blessed day
i know it not as powerful as the r1 engine but why not use the engone out of a mitsubishi mirage 1.2l 3 cylinder makes 90 hp but more torque and it already has a cvt on it
No, it's shredding belts because it's GEARED TOO HIGH. It's that simple bro. You have to research what the original gear ratio was to the end drive wheel (the wheel that drives the track on the snowmobile). and then you match that ratio to your tires size to the ground.. It's very easy to do; it's just a little math. You can't guess on the gearing... I had the same issue with my 500cc rotax. It was shredding and burning belts in only a few rides.. and then Iowered the gearing and it no longer left any wear on the belt at all and has lasted for years. Lowering the gearing also will make it quicker off the gun.. and if you lose 15mph off of the top speed-- so be it: at least it will not shred belts and actually work.
The shock isn't extending because the spring isn't on it. The rebound is actually the valves inside the shock limiting the speed at which the spring re extends the shock.

^ What he said.
"my shock isn't going down"
No spring. I wonder why
Man i laugh so much on that

Dude, enjoyed the video and you are just killing it !!!
looks good looking forward to the next video.
Man, these are things we all day dream about and you have a whole UA-cam channel for it.
Keep it up, can't wait to see where this channel goes
Once again, been here since the first go cart crash and broke leg. Keep it up man. Great builds, good content.
Ruffin,NC
Awesome build man, im jealous👊✊️

He did do a build for her. It was the mini f150 power wheels go kart

Make more money to support him
I dont like CVT's but its fine for what he did, his belts not being lined up and likely wrong distance apart is the problem.
I have a Polaris 680 triple on a kart. It’s a blast.
KPI can be used the reduce the scrub radius which affects the torque required for steering. Well done addressing it as it is often overlooked!
kid rocks son can build!
Dudes dad lore is going to be insane
Man you better get your merch going and a better shop built. Your big enough now you gotta keep the momentum going
Cool build I’m doing a similar build but with twin I-beams up front and contemplating on a straight axle with anti-roll bar in the rear. Just to make it more like a pre-runner. Also a R1 engine.
Are you broadcasting it? What's the channel?

I love your background music it's like you're a blacksmith
Great to see you using 'nodes' with your frame. On many builds I see zig zap framework with no thought of the loads applied.
I applaud your favrication skills, that looks really difficult to make a awd setup from scratch 😮
Really appreciate you showing your thought process. What you considered and changed your mind on (like the bend of rubbing).
This dude is literally a genius.

hateeerrrr
So why was he shredding belts then, gearing maybe?
@@MaldonadoMoto misalignment
You really need a truck 😂
Funny watching you cut out the last bits of the original go cart. This thing has come along way.
It's no fun if you can't chop them up to rebuild them and make improvements that's the best part😊
I knew this was gonna be a good video when I heard the song
Bad boy, bad boy...Whatcha goona do...? Glad it was just a warning. ;) This build looks Awesome. You've learned so much and keep improving each time. This one's going to be such a rad ride.

Thanks!
Watch your video of the rear suspension.. it’s going out then back in as it goes up. That’s why it’s binding.. not going to work like that.
Look at the vw 3x3 trailing arm design. Been around for years and works perfectly with cv axles
FROM KENYA! mAN I LOVE YOUR WORK, WISH I HAD HALF THE GARAGE HERE
Thanks You can do it!
Comment love bruh
Frm CHICAGO
Boy looking like Charlie Puth. Lol Love the stash.
Flaver saver lol 😂
Putting little sister to work!
Looking sick
Crazy how i got a UA-camr that lives in my town 😂

That's a sick gas tank
This is awesome
Crocs have become the new cowboy boots, I see.. 🤠
W vid
Keep up the good work 👏
Yay another VIDEOOOO & SF John!!!
Nice work
Good Job!

The shocks need to be rebuilt if there that easy to compress and aren't rebounding i think it's cheaper than buying new ones
Sick 🔥
great stuff thanks
Vasily could the 700 hold up to a 500 pound kart?
For sure . Check out xcr700 crosskart on UA-cam
Never underestimate a country guy and a sawsall.

Mann 4x4 is cool. So much more capable
gotta hit those key words!
I would say your belt issue is 100% due to clutch alignment. It is CRUCIAL for those to be dead on for that belt to survive at any power / load.
Your short arms on the rear suspension should be the same length as your axle from pivot to pivot. Same up front with your tie rods.
Heard my state of Maryland mentioned.

How much do your neighbors hate you ?😂
Probably not enough
Ill just weld some stuff for them on the side
Cats can have a lil slawmy
15:18 lemme check my Mrs fuel float hahahaha
Yup, checked, all good

It needs a spring. Shocks are just made to control spring move ment
Sparks flying into the intake and you will wonder why that engine was not working later on 😂😂
Guess you missed the part where he said that was an engine he’s been using to mock up not only this build but several of his others.
that thing would be a awsome buggy with a turbo s motor in it
Build looking good. Won’t that be called a pre-runner
Your CV's need to be inline with the A-arm pivots, just like your steering rack
Noice!
You need the world’s best belt.
designed for machines 500 hp or more
Da fuk is that trailer man..... HAHHAHHAHHAHA. Side note, "PUT snowmobile engines where they don't belong". Thats a shirt!
It looks like the front shocks were binding up as they were cycled through the travel.
Bro is already planning to break it
13:08 bungs bongs same thing
Here first💪🏻
I'm sure someone has already suggested this but could you build a mini trophy truck using a sxs (UTV) drivetrain?
Do you think it would be worth getting a plasma cutter or an arc droid setup?
Nitrogen gas is just regular air with all the H2o removed.
i know it not as powerful as the r1 engine but why not use the engone out of a mitsubishi mirage 1.2l 3 cylinder makes 90 hp but more torque and it already has a cvt on it
What kind of reverse gearbox is that and where can I buy one?
www.ptlracing.com/RPM-Reverse-Gearbox_p_62.html
That poor engine left wide open during all that
Mock-up engine
Don't get what happened at 1:16 What should you ask for?
take it from me you need to build a mud mower mower
Do what you gotta do

In, hydraulic and yes😅
dem crocks tho
How would that X bracing come out?
The pins in the sockets.
bro just ctually built a whole truck with a welder in his garage
how come u never cover up the ports with all the welding and cutting.
Willy's jeep body needs to happen, or John deere gator
He needs to put a k24 in that with a 6 speed box dawg would get more views that k24a8 don't play just vtech up your axc
TACK = MASK
Still keep doing random hi boo stuff
Just still keep making some small stuff
lol not much left of the Chinese go kart
