Can we all appreciate the brains and craftsmanship this takes to build things that are this awesome and look so good?
We Need More People To Support The Channel
Dude also makes a lot of the music for the channel if I'm not mistaken. On top of classy editing.
organicinsanity he makes all of the music, it’s super impressive.
I've been saying this for so long
I started watching go kart videos years ago, started with cars and cameras and thought "this is some cools builds", then came across these guys and "rather be welding" and thought oh shit, cars and cameras aren't even in the same league of building master pieces like these two channels, there seriously next level.
I swear Ethan is a genius when it come to fabbing up stuff from scrap.
You ment crap not scrap most people would toss that stuff 🤔
Each power wheels that they make just are always so much better than the last
At this rate the next power wheels build will be able to fly.
@@plo2367 The first Power Wings in the Power Wheels lineup
and better than anyone else has ever done either ;-)
I would hope so...
I swear the next one will have AC and power teering
The Overlanding video going to be one hell of a video! Can’t wait for that one
awesome set-up but I highly recommend a military style pintle hook to handle all the twisting and support/levelers for the trailer
Yesss
They are noisy as hell. They need a two axis coupler style
@@bren-xmotorsports55 true that would work
A little diesel motor and an f350
Power wheels would still be a sick "tow rig" even if it wasn't over engineered like the other builds as long as it pulls a trailer that would be sick
Flywheels on diesel motors are super dangerous
👍 I THINK THAT EVERY TIME I'M IN WAL-MART. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I have zero experience with ANY diesel engine but I'd be willing to bet with enough thought and careful planning it could be done with a relatively simple design if you knew all the possible dangers before going into it
Hahaha Grind Hard not over engineer something..... No way next level Fabricators!
I was just going to comment this. That would be awesome to see pulling a custom mini gooseneck dual axle trailer. Only trouble is i have never seen a small diesel engine with a built in gear box like the dirt bike engines.
Heck ya! Make sure to use the ladder as a support when you deploy the tent. Those hinges in the middle aren't made to hold the weight without support.
Was thinking the same. Ethan should make some kinda support for the tent while there in it.
I think he should make supports to fix the hinge issue and the tilting issue. I’m sure Ethan can figure it out lmao. Maybe use the ladder? Or you could mount some old jacks with metals plates on them to the back of the trailer for support!

I agree with this dude
Some guys get lucky and do the right thing at the right time. Nothing they do is easy though. Eithan puts in a lot of work and ,can't remember his name, puts in a lot of time filming and editing it all. It'd be easy to be jealous and salty but just can't be like that towards these guys.

Give the trailer some jacks or legs to keep it level and the wheels of the ground
I think it would be possible to build a bracket off of each side to go outside of the tent. Use two of the high-lift jacks instead of legs connected to the brackets.
A flip up trailer jockey stand would have been ideal.
I was thinking they would want to set camp then go play a bit with out the trailer and not having to hook it up to sleep would be nice.
Anyone else rewatching all of their videos? Or is it just me? 😂
I’m binge watching all of the videos from beginning to end
I saw someone also say this and I think it’s a great idea do a Mercedes 6x6 build 👍 shoutout to fm carting go like his comment also
Would definitely install a rock guard plate across the front of the trailer to protect the stuff underneath the tent.
this honestly reminds me of the trailer my family used for our overland adventure. We drove from south africa through to Germany and it was almost all offroad through out africa.
Splendid camper! Pimp your trailer with independent trailing suspension...those leaf springs hammer your gear over long track hauls...(all the best, outback traveler, Oz) PS, the ladder should be connected to tent floor when you get into it, the hinge is not designed to take all the weight of a body climbing in to the cantelevered floor.
I would set up a quick coupler and do hydraulic trailer breaks and if you want some power for charging cams and stuff get an inverter with a car battery and a plug in on the back
Needs some type of cover in the front, when you go through mud n stuff, all your gear will trashed
guard that doubles as a table`
what think you meant is that senders needs mud flaps lol
I do'nt see anything there that a little mud is going to hurt.
I'M PICKLE RIIIICK!
100%, nice piece of diamond plate would do the job and fit the overland trailer look.
It's hard to say it any different way, this vehicle is the most outrageously GOOD LOOKING rippen vehicle, and now an overland trailer for camping. If you guys don't make one outrageous video to go along with this trailer update when you guys go wherever you're going, then I will become an upset and disillusioned individual roaming this planet - please don't forget to make it, please. This combination is just neat too!
Just freaking cool. Ive been wanting a trailer for my rig and now I have no reason not to put it togeather. That idea with the shocks was brilliant. And the drone flying was excellent.
A thing I have learned from getting less young: If you are rough camping it’s easiest to level your rig by digging holes for the wheels to the appropriate depth rather than jacking things up.
But then how are your mates supposed to yank the jack out from under you while you sleep? ;)
James Healy that’s definitely another benefit of this technique. It also makes your step up into it lower.
I think a dodge dually power wheels with stiff suspension in the rear to be able to pull both jeeps on a trailer would be sick!
Oh man, My friends and i have started working on a power wheels Tundra because of you guys and now we might just have to make a trailer for it too, already had in mind a small boat trailer for our Livingston but an overland trailer seems even better.
Hey bud, the internet needs the UA-cam videos to go with that build. Where they at?
@@Tristanmtbmx Hah, we'll think about maybe doing that! if anything I'll at least post pics of it somewhere
On a RTT the ladder is used to support the open end of the tent. Throw it under there and extend it to offset the weight of the overhang. And, friday agternoons are made for GHPC videos. Love the work guys. Keep it up
It's great that you are having an event with Chris at RBW. He's a great fabricator and very inventive. 👍
These guys have the best quarantine ever, 100 hp 4x4 and 50 hp jeep and a bunch of friends that have basically the same things!!
Those quads that senders is built out of tow things so it's not surprising this thing handles it fine. Just like normal though another over the top grind hard style build. Hope Chris was able to get there for the fun! Can't wait to see the trip!
You guys should build like a mini tank or something to put on the trailer
I rhink you guys have created a completely new vehicular verse. I can see power wheels races of all kinds, shows, events all over, adventures of all kinds. I love it.
Hmmmm I had to put a clutch in my duke 990. From commuting in traffic. Thank god you are doing what I’m sure everyone is telling you. Good man.
The trailer is cool, but the INSANE build quality of Col. Senders is just next level. The hill you went down with the trailer...and you didn't slip at all. Like..what?! How?! Lol
Ребята это супер! Отличный прицеп получился! Всегда смотрю с удовольствием ваши серии) привет из России!)
Add a propane tank too the front so you can bring a camp grill, and maybe a front cover to keep your gear from getting mud all over it. Awesome build
You should make a kind of skid plate slash ramp plate across the underside of the trailers front lip to help it not get stuck on steep angles. You may also want to think up some kind of canvass cover for around the contents of the trailer so stuff stays less muddy... But it looks like it'll be a ton of fun!
Best video ever. I'm starting a build with a Polaris cobra 440 twin cylinder snowmobile motor and I'm going to put it on a fully loaded off-road Go Kart
That's too cool you need a custom skirt around the bottom of the tent to keep everything dust free well a little less dusty 😉😉
These builds are beyond cool. They need to be in a full production Hollywood mad max survivor type movie. They really are famous stars ,in their own realm.I bet you could get them cast in something, for big money.
Grind Hard Plumbing. The Gold standard in Powerwheels and go kart fabrication and conversions.
I think its cool how the colonel is so big and powerful that it can haul everyone else's stuff
👍IT DOES HAVE A 4 CYLIDER MOTOR. 👍
@@MrJameslewis530 wut no! It has a v twin
This has got to be one of the coolest things you have every built.
Remember to cross the chains! People always overlook this. Awesome build
Harry. B. Renner. jr. Same here in B.C. Canada
All these projects have been good but this motor sounds the best out of them all... it sounds perfect
You guys used the phrase, "It's safe to say"........ I would guess that's as close to safety as anything you do will get!
Love the videos and the craziness. Hope nobody loses a finger or worse.
Great ingenuity!
I appreciate the fact that this thing screams quality and it’s not just jerry-rigged together to make it seem better than it is.
Your ability to quite literally go Over the top. Spot on.
To save busting the draw bar off the trailer I’d recommend putting a poly block/trigg hitch coupling instead of the ball, gives amazing articulation and works as a good vibration isolator from the trailer
Sweet fellas! I would probably make a couple adjustable legs for the foot of the tent when it's open.
ARB Australian gear made tuff for outback / wildernesses in the dry or wet ARB gets you there and back....got heaps of there products on and on my 4x4 Toyota land cruiser 105 👌there gear is highly recommend 💪👍
When are use doing a nother camping trip with the power wheels I like it it's just so cool seeing all of the power wheels together
Zipties are the perfect shovel mount, carry spares, when you actually need to use your shovel cutting a few zipties is the least of your worries.
Also, to level your trailer, if it's still sitting a bit tongue high, run the front wheels of Senders up onto a couple 2x6s and it'll tip the tongue down. Cut a few chunks down and tuck them in the corner of the trailer, easy levelling blocks.
Also, some kind of shield on the front of the trailer to protect from debris thrown off the tires is a good idea, or your cooler and water jug will be trashed before you get there.
That is a work of art that belongs in a display case, I can't believe you're out overlanding with it. You rock.
Awesome drone flying up the driveway...next challenge: fly up the drive and right on thru the building with welding going on and sparks flying! 🤘🏻
Build some simple square tube out riggers with some cheap and easy screw (trailer type) jacks on them! Could even detach the trailer and camp on it still at that point, still be able to send it around while the camp site is set up
Week 16 or 15 (idk) of asking GHPC to do a Mercedes 6x6 build
Fuckin right time to add another axle to the back
that'd be sick
Stop telling them what to do and do that shit yourself.
@@la_plata3588 stop buying parts from the store and fabricate that shit yourself
Good luck, they don't read comments
The Colonel just keeps getting better! Should be a sweet trip! Before you go maybe fab a 3 axis offroad hitch. The ball mount might bind depending on how rough the terrain is.
Чуваки красавчики, не смотря сразу пишу комент, ребята делают вещи
I agree to ditch the hitch and fab up a u-joint hitch from an old driveshaft. Also, I'm always waiting for a side video of Edwin and his killer editing/shooting/droning skills to be featured in front of camera as well.
Amazing. I think a brake system for the trailer would be very helpful on steep declines. There'd be much less chance for a runaway.
I would think about building a little shield on the front of that tent.. especially on the front corners.. Keep it minimal. But I can imagine those front corners of that tent catching on a lot of trees and likely catching a tear on the trail. Couple simple shield/ deflectors would be awesome.. Maybe use a pin so they can be removed.
Awesome to hear that Chris from rather B welding is going to be a part of this. I discovered his UA-cam channel right around the same time I started watching GHPC.
His work is cool n all but not on the level of grind hard
In that beautiful area its like youre camping 24/7.
You guys have created a Goldmine. Please put these in production!
Ok here we go!! Regear it please!!! Adjust the seat and steering so you sit down in the Jeep think “shifter cart seating” add a proportionate roll cage. Are the headlights functional yet?? Best power wheels build on the web!
Yall should make a toolbox storage on the sides of the trailer on top the wheel covers and make some kinds of anker for a tree just for safety and mount a generator in the middle near the end you would have a camper for sure but I love this stuff I have a go kart that has shocks and I've been looking for a dirt bike motor or street bike motor and trail ride it yall actually made me wanna buy it keep up the awesome work
I can´t wait!, for the KTM 1290cc PowerWheels!
I would suggest making a mid sheiks splash guard for the from of the trailer, so you gear doesn’t get destroyed on the trip, just a small suggestion.
My Jeep trailer used to have all contained and it was nice to camp with dry clean stuff when you got to the spot.
i love it, only thing i would change is the gearing. not for speed but for crazy torgue and response :) and maybe a A style axle to allow better travel in terrain.
the trailer was the perfect accessory for Col. Senders! Awesome build can't wait for the next one!
You should add to trailer lifts/jack in the 2 back corners of the trailer to put down when in the tent to take some weight off everything
6:35 OMG, Colonel, Sendy and Bjorn. I want wallpaper like that! Please!
You guys should use some jack stands or some little scissor lifts to stiffen up the rear of the trailer when you're camping and you could use em to get the trailer/tent level so you are even more comfortable.
I never thought in my wildest dreams growing up that I'd be seeing this. I remember as a kid I soooooo badly wanted to shove the motor from our Little Red Snapper lawn mower in a power wheels so bad. And now we have how many different channels shoving insane dirt bike, 4 wheeler and crotch rocket motors in em?!?!?!?! It's a wonderful time to be alive folks!!!! Grind Hard, thank you guys for making all of us with the dream as kids to see a ridiculous gas powered Power Wheels feel like a kid again!!
Esos jeep son lo mas hermoso que he visto en mi vida... el sueño que jamas alcansare... 🥺
Keep on building and sending ALL your projects guys!!!!!!.
Hey! Look at axleless axles.. I built a dirt bike trailer out of 1.750 Dom and used those axleless axles and I love them... Cool video Guy's 👍
ive got this same tent on my civic. Ive slept in it a few dozen times...its held up great :)
You guys have probably already been out overlanding with this setup but I wanted to suggest adding some angled braces to the tongue to create a triangle up front. After awhile all the side by side twisting will snap welds where the tongue is welded to the trailer platform. The triangle will add strength to help against the flexing side to side.
Subpar trailer build. Blake wilkey his mini boat offroad trailer is the ultimate
It would be cool to see you guys build a sliding tray under the cooler so you could just slide it out grab what you need and slide it back that would have been cool but great build guys loving it
That’s is awesome! You should add a sliding tray to the front with a plate to protect cargo from dirt!
Park Colonel Senders under the tent and put a jockey wheel on the draw bar. Keeps it dry you will know if anyone is messing with it and it would support the end of the tent.
Put slide out jack stabilizers for the back and front of the trailer so that you can disconnect if you want
Nest year Ill start this prohect with my son.
Two crosskart and get camp here in Brazil.
This is what I'm waiting for, the camping segment. what more adventures
Word of advice on your pop up tent. add a pair of legs to the far end thats just hanging there with no support under it. set them up so that when you open the tent they automatically flip out in to position.
very nice I suggest putting a canvas tarp on the front of the trailer to protect your gear. I foresee holes in the cooler from the 1000 mph rocks them tires through.lol
Love the use of the ARB roof topper! Well made Aussie offroad gear.
That's a perfect setup but u are missing 1 thing.. A Small Broom to clean off cooler and other things from the rooster tail it produces.. Good Job on the build..
Use a full u joint from a driveline for the trailer so you get full up and down and side to side articulation without binding.
I dreamed of doing these kinds of things with friends when I was 8.
Ooow.....yeah!!!!....cant wait for the roadtrip/camptrip vid guys....awesome collab!!...rig looks awesome...sweet job!
Good to see an aussie arb tent! They are very well made.
Awesome build. Looks like the front of the trailer might need a rock deflector shield though. Otherwise something kicked up by the rear tyres could put a hole in the water container or tent. A sheet of rubber would do.
Speaking about Power Wheels Mods. I'd love to see a third (detachable) axel on that Jeep, make it a 6x6, would make it much more capable of hauling a trailer
Thats gonna be a very cool colab. :) Also that trailer is dope.
These two are living the coolest life ever. Gah I’m jealous. You guys rock !
Hell I wouldn't fancy sitting so high up in a car on a trailer being towed. You guys are insane. Love your builds.
It's the Grind Hard paradox: completely crazy, and yet... makes perfect sense
Ok this is just way to cool. And I cant wait to see the overlanding trip.
Them: You need a $60,000 pickup or SUV with about $30,000 worth of mods to overland.
GHPC: Powerwheels go brrrrrr
Just needs a 3-way swivel hitch. Cool setup!!
If if that jeep with the trailer is given to me in my birthday tomorrow it would be the greatest gift of my life
You could put power assist brakes on the overland trailer to help with the weight stoping down hills
