    Man you have some DEVINE fabricating skills. That is pure talent. Out of this world buggy build! I bet your son is always smiling riding in that beast! Again great job an glad to see there are people still out there that can think it an build it. You have to send some pics of it on the trail!

    Wow, I only wish you had shown more of building it! I'm currently building my own buggy, completely different class as mine is tiny compared to this and only a single seat 2 wheel drive, but it was cool to see how yours slowly came together and looking closely at your tubing bends and the brackets and gussets you've made

    Awesome build, amazing fabrication work, I was wondering if there are any special modifications for a fuel cell to run at extreme angles and prevent fuel starvation? Also I can't remember the exact name but do you use any kind of "oil scavenge" setup, i.e. pressurized tank (oil/air) that will supply oil in the event that the oil in the pan sloshed away from the pump? They are used in high performance drag vehicles where the acceleration causes a loss of oil to the pump, I could imagine a rock crawler having an issue with the extreme angles.

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  8 років тому +3

      Thank you. You are right on both accounts. The fuel cell has a little compartment to prevent fuel starvation, and I usually keep it over quarter full. You can see more details about the fuel cell build here: ua-cam.com/video/677fFUlJWhg/v-deo.html I also run an oil accumulator for the engine to prevent oil starvation.

      It's hard to put a price on it. I have been collecting parts for over 10 years. It should cost you as much as building a hot rod, 20k to 50k$, I guess.

    Very nice job! The project, all the positioning work, the weldings, and the clever idea for the painting cabin!
    What kind of diferentials do you used? Both are front diferentials (for rear steering?) are they blockable or L.S.D.?
    Sorry ask you so many questions, but I live in Brazil, and that kind of machine is very rare here. Here is more usual to find this machines only 4x2 and with lighter motorization (1.8 lts turbo)
    I have great curiosity about the gearbox (automatic or manual) and the transfer case. Also imagine how do you control the rear steering!
    Greetings from Brazil!

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  7 років тому +2

      Thank you! The differentials are both steering 2.5 ton military axles (from older military trucks). They are called rockwells. I have spools inside both of them (permanently locked). The transmission is Ford C6, it has manual valve body (it shifts manually only). The transfer case is Atlas 4-speed, custom built for me. The rear steer is controlled with a hydraulic/electric power pack (similar to dump trailers), I have an electric switch in between the seats for moving the rear axle.

  • @kylemaras
    @kylemaras 7 років тому

    How do you measure the ride height for coil over install? distance from axle to cage?

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  7 років тому

      I built the whole chassis at full compression, and then I chose the coil-over spring rates to get 6-7" of up travel. That's it.

    • @kylemaras
      @kylemaras 7 років тому

      Rg Sabat I've seen a lot of rock bouncers and i have to say the look and design of yours is one of the best I've ever seen hands down. You do nice work and definitely have an eye for detail. My issue is figuring the distance from top of axle to where you mount the coil over on the cage. So say the coil over is 36 inches long un-mounted, do you (at full compression) make the distance 29-30inches from top of axle to mounting location on cage (subtracting the 6-7inches of up travel)? I'd be afraid of fabbing it all up then the buggy sit to low or vice versa. Or how much do coilovers compress once you have weight on them..... or that big badass 545 big block you got :D Know what I mean? Thank you so much for your time. And again, nice work on that bouncer of yours.

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  7 років тому

      Thank you. Yes, I understand your question. But the coil overs have all the adjustments you need to correct for all the height changes you want. I wasn't concerned with the distance from the top of axle to the CO cage mount when I was building. This is not universal, it will depend on parameters such as length of CO shaft (14, 16 or 18), brand of CO, etc... When you are building at full compression, you take off the springs so that the CO is fully compressed. Now, you design your belly (which is the lowest point of your chassis) to be at the ride height you want, minus how much shaft showing you want on the CO at ride height. For me, I was aiming to have 22" belly at ride height, so 22" -7" = 15", so I designed the belly to be 15" above the ground (or base plane) at full compression, with the tires on. This way the whole chassis will be as low as possible. After you are done building, you need to find the correct spring rates to achieve the 6-7" of up travel you were aiming for. This will depend on the unsprung weight. Remember that you also can thread in or out the top spring mount on the CO to increase the ride height if you want. There are other things to think about too, like the bump stop mounts. I set my bump stops to be fully compressed at 1" before the CO shaft is fully compressed (so 1" of shaft showing). This is not an exact science, but it seems to work well for me.

    @cocolisoexplorationcorp6941 6 років тому

    Hi RG - great work, I love your commitment and the fact you’re passing it on to nextgen.
    could you provide further details on the transfer case? For example, do you use a www.filthymotorsports.com/Atlas_2_Speed_p/atlas-2spd.htm?
    Also scratching my head on why two brake pedals?
    And, probably a stupid question, but do you really need the big block? What are you running 700 hp?

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  6 років тому

      Thank you for your comment. I use a 4-speed atlas transfer case, 2:1 ratio in the main case and 2.72:1 in the crawl box before it. I use only the 2:1 case 90% of the time when I wheel. So, a 2 -speed would be just fine. I have two brake pedals, one for the front axle and one for the rear axle. The brakes are independent for safety, the other day a log ripped my rear brake line, but I was able to continue wheeling that day. One benefit is also to do a front dig (brake rear axle and power to the front) to turn sharply. Not a stupid question at all about the big block, it has 550 hp. The question of big block versus small block (of any kind) is a matter of personal preference and a debatable question by many! My vision is that the big block is easier to achieve high HP for the money invested and I like the low end torque (a lot), the down side is that they are heavier, but that doesn't bother me much. To me what really makes the difference offroad is power to weight ratio.

    How much a project like this costs?

    • @rgsabat

      If you want to buy a turn key buggy similar to this one, it would cost between 50K$ to 100k$, depending on the options. If you build it yourself, you would save lots of money in labor.

    did you make any plans on a computerprogramm for the chassi?
    if yes could you please tell me what programm you had used?

      I didn't use any computer program. I had a general idea about the look in my head when I first started, and then I designed and built the chassis on the spot.

      I'm sorry, I don't have any plans for building a buggy. I design the chassis as I'm building it in my garage. I didn't even know it will look like that when I started building this one.

    what do you use to bend the tube

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  7 років тому +2

      I have a Pro Tools 105HD tube bender and a custom tube roller that I built out of a Harbor Freight tube roller.

    • @rgsabat
      @rgsabat  7 років тому +1

      The pro tools bender is around 400$, the die is around 400$ and the harbor freight roller is around 200$. But none of my benders are stock, all of them have been heavily modified. I was planning on making some new videos soon about bending tube and how I do it.
