    For the younger generation . . . Good design is based on the K.I.S.S. principle = "Keep it Simple, Stupid" or "Keep it Simply Stupid", that is, make it uncomplicated, or to simplify things as much as possible, the acronym first used by Kelly Johnson, 1960, lead engineer at the Lockheed Skunk Works. My dad worked for this man.

    Imagine if it used steering axels using hydraulic steering in the rear. With a lockout for street that puts a 1" pin in the tie rods using a electric latch, locking it in center. Or it could steer by electric linear actuator. Then it can steer with a tiny knob. Maybe in the center of the steering wheel. That is opposite of the steering wheel to make turns . It could make backing in tight spots amazing! Heck doing anything in a tight spot would be easy .. it should turn on a dime, and give you a nickel and 4 pennies back! Possibly 5 pennies!😮!

    Just watched Rubicon recovery.
    Would a "Matt's Coilover Shock" designed to attach from wrecker to tow vehicle make towing smoother plus act as vehicle to wrecker bump stop?
    (2 standard tow hitch mounts and some sort of ball joint to attach shock, then Matt's Straps to prevent over extension)
    Shock would prolly get a lil hot though. May even be able to use flex straps to act as slap stop when wrecker lurches forward.

  • @Mark_Bridges

    Based on Matt's tyre sizes and diff ratios, the front will outpace the rear by only 0.82%. That assumes the front and rear tyre rolling diameters are exactly 42 and 35 inches which will vary all the time with pressure, load and wear. That's pretty close, probably closer than other off road vehicles with the same tyres and diffs and uneven tyre wear or load from front to back.

    A reporter once asked the great Mickey Thompson, "What's it like to drive the Baja 1000?" Mickey's response, "Try to imagine an all-day plane crash" Many years ago, about 45 of 'em, I was wrenching in a shop that did nothing but air-cooled Volkswagens. K&N Filters brought their VW Thing Baja Pre-runner in for us to work on the engine. Surprised me that it wasn't as "caged" as I'd expected. So, I figure they used it more for route checking, than running at speed. Keep up the great work, Matt and crew. We love it. Kolby, you're doing fine with the camera.

    anyways, would you consider using the Ford twin traction beam or the twin I beam front suspension for the baja corvair? they are incredibly stable at high speeds off road.
    just had another thought, you could call it the Borvair, before you shoot it down, wild bores are unstoppable and fierce.

    Colby, you're too young to have back problems. Get to the doctor, chiropractor, gym or even just get a massage just to find out where your back is as far as which treatment will help you. Good luck.
    Oh, also replace your shoes more often. Trail runners would be a good fit for what you do.
    Most importantly, Make sure your bed is keeping you comfortable.

    That was a really good try to speech me, but I’m always kind of concerned like you should add like a force bumper on the front of the truck once you try to finish it because if you made your bumper a bit more stronger more durable, it would last more longer and then you would try to repaint it to make it the same color as the truck Your bumper can be strong and can be much more efficient way any bumper would literally just come out ripped right off the front end but you need a stronger more durable one so I recommend you try to design one that’s more sophisticated included so that way you have your winch there And also add one more thing put a stack on the front side of the truck because if we much easier if you had one
