Home Made small CV Spool for a new project!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 лис 2023
- Today we are starting another new project! I'm not going to say what that new project is just yet, first we need to build the CV spool, rear bearing carriers, and front spindles. In this video we focus on making the CV spool using Polaris sportsman 400 front CV axles. I had to modify them slightly and will most likely have to lengthen them but I think they will work perfect for this new project.

This is why you're the GOAT in my eyes. You make your own parts. Everyone else buys parts.
Name some others that he he is better than. You used the word GOAT. Explain it. Thanks. Also - GOAT at what?
Not to mention, he's not afraid to abuse his machines on the trails like all youtubers 😂
OMG I love watching your fabrication videos. I’m a home fabricator who likes to create my own designs and your ideas and skills are amazing! I gave up trying to make other people’s parts work for me… you are solving questions I’ve run into myself! Keep it up!
Dude you are where we all want to be! Nice rear end! I know it sucks to get advice from commenters, but starting with the length of axle you want vs lengthening or shortening shafts saves a ton of time and will always be stronger. But since you can fab anything you can make it however you want 😁.
I love your fabrication skills and ideas. You could make your own drive shafts. Making splines is pretty easy but a bit time-consuming. You still have a shaper and a drill press. Use drill press to make the slots. Lathe to cut out the center. Shaper to get better grooves. Make 2 parts that fit together out of one piece. Also, it can make everything more compact. Could even start making your own spindle gears.
Thanks for filming Chris. 😁👍🏼
Chris, this is awesome! This would work perfectly for a project I'm dreaming up now. Thank you for sharing!!!!
Awesome can’t wait to see what your new project is 😊
Sure like watching you turn out things on your lathe. Great skill to have.
Could we get a video on how you learned to machine and when you got your first piece of equipment? I'm not sure if you have done one in the past, I've been watching you for at least the last 5 years now. Always impressive watching you make parts from scratch
I believe his first machine tool he made himself. A lathe that he has videos on how he made. Very motivated kid back then and even now.
@joew2303 Thank you, I will check it out
For your issues with chain slack build a sprocket on a slide guide to tension the chain and make it spring loaded so it always stays tight
It would require a ratcheting lock to prevent the engine from compressing the springs.
@@kevinsellsit5584 Depends which side the tensioner is on. Tension the bottom side of the chain while going forward. and for reverse you would have to tension the top side.
Been watching for a few years. Your machinist skills have come so far. Excited to see what this project is.
Once again amazed at all the top tier fabricators lurking in the comments. So blessed to have so many experts in fabrication here!
I love your fabrication
Thanks man. Your videos are awesome btw!
That's some pretty slick work my friend 💯
Great work!👍😃👏👏👏👏👏
Your work is always amazing, 💛 👍🏼
Good job Kris.
Fantastic content and awesome builds. I would like to see you graduate from chain drive everything to shaft drive for some future projects. There's a reason regular cars and trucks use drive shafts.😊
Everybody here "why a sproket wtf ew" yall it worked. Worked on his last, heaviest project. Issue with the chains coming off was due to cheap chains and the SWING ARMS FLEXING! Genuinely would expect the chain to snap before it transmitted enough force to flex that much steel.
Outstanding design and machine work, you're obviously an Engineer. Can't wait to know what the new project is..
ASMR for fabricators. Well done Chris!
You have came such a long way with your fabrication lathe abilities, I love watching how you do things and your thought processes.
You are awesome. I'm really enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing
Since I first started watching your videos a few years ago, your abilities have increased/improved so significantly. As a fellow maker/fabricator, my hat's off to you! Keep up the great work and content.
KEEN!! Got me thinking what 95hp could go in.. hurry up next video haha
Hell yeah, new project!!!
First guess: I think you'll make a 4wd powerwheels?
Second guess: maybe a 4wd mud slinger/dragster?
He did enough offroad stuff already,l. I really hope it is a more of a track focus weapon 😊
@@micaelantunes7055 that would be great too :)
Just when I think you couldn't impress me anymore with your skills, you prove me wrong. Another amazing project.
Big inspiration! but would love to see you get as good at driving your projects, as you are making them ;)
Hy, your job is amazing, and very nice to see !!! Kris
avid subscriber, always waiting for your videos coz im amaze by your talent, creating those parts👍your craftsmanship is amazing👍♥️
Good job, thanks for your video ❤
Wow Chris! Amazing!
I watch every single one of your videos and your skills really improved I want to know when will you build big boy stuff that’s really fast I hope eventually you get their
very good desing ,well done!
it would be awesome to see a project with: fwd engine and transmission mounted longitudinally with 2 differentials, one for front and one for rear axle.
benefits: single transmission, reverse gear, Automatic 😮? readily available parts, huge variety of engines (ie corolla, civic, cobalt, golf, veloster).
It works quite well as long as you don't want to go fast. The buggy I built this way tops out at about 25-30mph.
Pssst. No one is stopping you. But you trying to tell others what they should do... :(
@@eriklarson9137 id love to but i do nt have the means to
@@eriklarson9137 There's absolutely nothing wrong with offering suggestions.
@@LesNewell Why are you limited to 40mph?
You have come so far! This is a work of art! It's the little things. Like weight saving and countersunk retainer bolt that I love. Keep it up bud!
nice to see some driveshafts and what looks like yet another build with independant suspension... Looking foreward to see what you have come up with!
That a bad ars show. Your good. I’m a disabled man love to have you build me a power off road wheelchair. I’m an old man American and I would of course pay you. Great show. Watch all your show.
Wow, that's a lot of work! Much respect.
As kind of an OG subscriber my thoughts are always when I watch this channel......get away from chains and more to shaft drive. Inexpensive ATV diffs can be had on the used market, which goes into another thought, speed up projects and don't jump around so much between projects, finish a few (completely and near perfect) and sell so they are gone for good (when an old one finally pops back up a couple years later I've forgotten about it and not near as interested), do a project for on-road, haven't seen one of those in a while, use some off the shelf stuff on purpose for ease of maintenance and fixes on the trails, like brakes, CV axles, bearings/hubs, spindles, electronics etc. possibly some stuff you could find at an auto parts store, stop with the motor cycle engines, do something with a small car engine/trans possibly, several manufacturers make sub 2.0L turbo engines as an example.
Machine work 💪
Keep it up you should sell them for the people who don't have milling machine
There should be a bushing between the two bearings so that the rotation of the bearing does not drag when the nut is tightened, like the bearing on a motorbike wheel rim.
you do good work
More precise and neater now. good job
You can create your own version of Areil Atom..
Great machining!
Best I ever seen.
You have one hell of a tool collection
Thanks
Fancy piece of kit built there. Half a day for the rest is ok. ;-)
wait... you have a hydraulic press and you're hammering in bearings?
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
Awesome work ! It's mesmerizing watching the machining you do.
I'm pretty sure I know what you're planning.
You're building something motorized. ;)
Наконец-то началось хоть какое-то облегчение изделия. До Негоды конечно далеко, но все же. Здорово!
Another Project You need to fix the BROKEN CRAWLER FIRST AND THE CHAIN PROBLEM !!! I enjoy everything you do and really your learning from you mistakes also I LIKE SURPRISE’S you couldn’t find Long enough Axle’s
bravo sana. beceri ve marifet sende var.
Ohhh it was satisfying when u made the washer that holds the keyways down 🥴🥴🥴🥴😅😅😅😅
Would love to see you resurrect some old projects.
Also, when are you going tonfishish the rick Crawler and the 2 person buggy?
All your stuff is great and Im not complaining but I would like to see ya move from chain drive to a drive shaft and diff build =D
agreed
You did a phenomenal job on this. I feel like i would have left the extra meat on the sprocket side, that way i could drill a dual bolt pattern in it for other brand of sprockets.
You could always make some spacers to take the place of one set of those bearings.
I always hated broaching keyways with a pump press it takes forever
I'm a big dum dum and all of this is blowing my mind
Nice work as always.. Have you looked into rzr axles, alot of Polaris is interchangeable? XP900 maybe.
If you're running a long travel high power CV setup, make sure to cut the inner clamps off the boots, this will allow them to travel better. Look at some newer sand rails they do it to allow better movement without tearing boots
I enjoy watching the videos on how you build the drit bikes you going to do more
Anyone else praying this is for a cross. Kart?
Chris i know your great at what you do, but id use some sort of collar to re stregthen the cv axle cups you shaved as it could weaken them just a thought
Hmm... I'm gonna guess for the heck of it that its gonna be some type of 4-wheel drive ATV.
Lovely but if fab with some cool tunes. 😎
The shape are cool before shaping the conner😊. Why not adding a fly wheel using the electric kick reverse, and that will also gives room for a servo paddle shifters. (Just a Suggestions)
13:35 Used a solid wire or paper clip & bend it to be a slide stop on your caliper. Works much better than the $5 piece of factory made plastic.
ITS A QUAD!
there is 2 bearings per side on a good quad rear carrier bearing set up also. so not necessarily overkill.
1 bearing per side.
@@jerrywilcox9890 on stock quads yes on upgraded nice stuff there is 2 bearings per side.
@@Mr_Hatfield797 all mine have 1 bearing per side.
@@Mr_Hatfield797 I have upgraded on my 400ex still only has 1 bearing per side.
@@jerrywilcox9890 my 400ex and my yfz450 both had dual row bearings.
I don't care what it is all the projects end up great and then to watch him build everything by hand is awesome personally I would stick to chain driven systems because they're just so much easier to build and repair
Exactly that was my suggestion.
Excellent fabrication as always. I've been wondering why you don't use differentials in your builds. It helps eliminate binding and is easier on the drive parts. Plus, you could lock them for traction.
Have you ever thought about using the CV axles from a Mazda Miata? They would be plenty strong and much longer than the Polaris axles.
Love your work, but maybe throw a LSD in the middle? helps them turn and takes load off the rear drivetrain. check out Edge Buggys in Australia. They have been doing this a long time and the plans they sell are second to none. They have everything from grass karts to full scale race buggys. No 4wd but. And i would recommend making roll cage hoops 1 piece...
cool
you have to add tube between bearings. When you tighten bolt you add unnecessary side force to inner bearing race and ball bearings... or you had to make step on shaft.
Lol no. Please post a video with you in your machine shop showing what you mean. Or have you even touched a lathe?
@@eriklarson9137 what he is saying makes sense. Just because you don't get it.....that being said due to this specific application it may not be necessary. Doesn't mean other people don't understand the concept.
@@eriklarson9137 Why do people like you always hate it when constructive criticism is given out? Unlike you, this person has offered a reasoning to their criticism, where as you just said "Lol no." and then continued to berate them. Don't be that person.
That being said, you are not wrong. If you notice, the shaft has been turned down in length enough so that the spool doesn't move around a bunch, but the load is taken up by the shaft, if that makes sense.
Made in Merica!!! 💪🤘👊👌
Maybe some sort of tracked atv?
when you make the axels longer you should try friction welding them together!! thoughts?
Love all the machining, Chris. About the CV axles, how about starting with axles from a honda civic (just a guess); essentially finding something that is off the shelf the length you really need?
I saw this and hoped you are doing a collab build with KJ Racing....
KJ Cross Kart. Pretty obvious.
He’s wasting a lot of time making these parts when Kjraycing already has something superior with far less work and no lathe needed..🤷🏼♂️
You should be building a Sand Rail for the Dunes.
Bummer you can't get EU parts easily in US, because there's an entire boatload of small cars you could pick for parts like axles and other bits that are small and much more robust than Polaris things.
Your builds are one off, but the cutting edge geometry on the lathe is a one off as well… lol 👊
Man i hope its a tracked project im still waiting for it
Proformance motor sports Australia makes a cv axle adapter / diff with reverse gear
👍
those keyways slid in real easy. no backlash or wobble from them?
Oh look. Another chain drive.
Please use a diesel engine in one of your next builds. Maybe turbocharge it, og change turbo🤩
I hope its a power wheels car😊
Pillow bearing blocks wouldnt be my 1st choice for anything with an axial load of any significance. Gaprre
Ditch the chains the last build should have been driveline
Beautiful creation! I like where you are going with it. It was making me think about an idea for a torsion bar concept that you could engage or disengage for on road vs rock crawling, sort of like locking hubs. Have each arm connected to the hub and freely articulate with it, unless the center is locked together. For high speed on track runs it would really help with leaning. For off road it could be disengaged for full articulation. Maybe the center could be a garage door spring so it could have some give, or maybe it could be a full locking tongue in groove bar. I guess technically it wouldn't have to connect in the center as long as each arm could be locked independently, just depending on how much extra stability you wanted. Just some ideas.
He did that recently. I believe was for his rock crawler, formally known as the rock bouncer.
@@gagepuffinbarger6939 I've watched every episode and I hadn't seen him use an actual torsion bar. Vertically mounted torsion bars and horizontally mounted trailing arms (like he engineered on this creation and the rock bouncer you are talking about) are entirely different things.
@@reviewaccount469 are you meaning torsion bar for springs, similar to what GMC used for their front suspension?
@@gagepuffinbarger6939 Yeah, like that. Basically a long bar that twists with a spring effect. I think Chris's creations would handle well with torsion bars and sway bars while driving on tracks. I was just thinking that it might be cool to design ones that could be disengaged when he wanted to rock crawl. The closest I've seen him ever build were pan-hard bars, but those are just for side to side movement.
@@reviewaccount469 I could see you being able to disengage them, but to re-engage them you'd have to put tension back on them. Either that, or you'd have to find a way to lock the spring side in place, then disengage them. It would be a cool concept, but might not be practical. Are you meaning to have that alongside the coil springs or having them as the sole suspension?
super beefy
