    Ike's "It'll be fine" is no BS. When his house floods out from a hurricane, how does he deal with it? Build a monster truck go cart of course! When Ike says it'll be fine, IT WILL BE FINE!!

    I'm wondering, if you could hinge the body up front, then you climb aboard and lower the body around you. Kinda like a gull-wing door.

    Hey guys i love this build and all but you change the front suspentio n a little and put another axle and make it awd/4x4 it would fit the theme of a jacked up truck. If you have trouble thinking of steering use the same design as a 4x4 would with the front drive shafts i know you guys can do it ya'll have done way crazier stuff with gokarts, for example boat-cart.
    I enjoy watching ya'lls videos and that would make this build more interesting.

    I agree with hinging the body so you can lift it up, climb in easy, then lower the body. Especially since it's perfectly waist height to slide into I think it would look great and be functional. Also maybe get a CarsandCameras Badge made up to put on the body?

    If you all wanted to increase the speed on the monster truck go kart you could widen the rear which would make it much more stable. I wouldn't go any faster than 25mph though. Ike is a great engineer.

  • @ZippoVarga
    @ZippoVarga 6 лет назад +2

    Heya Guys! A little Machinist info for you. When drilling larger holes, always drill a "pilot" hole with a bit that's less than 1/2 the final hole diameter to lessen the impact on the tip of the larger bit. Think of it this way. Look at the tip of the large bit. You'll notice at the summit of the bit that the webbing has a thickness to it. Pilot drilling with a bit slightly larger than this webbing makes for much more efficient job with the larger bit and there is less chance of burning the metal you're drilling and dulling your drill bit. Great fab work guys! This is an awesome build to follow. Cheers! Zip~

  • @mealex303
    @mealex303 6 лет назад

    Small tip you should take on for this project! Use stiffer springs on rear wheels and longer softer springs on front wheels. It will help with bottoming out on faster take off and acceleration plus softer front springs will help stay level if you hit any objects at fast or slow speeds keeping it more comfortable and safe.

    The trailing arm needs more cross bracing. May be easier to weld a plate on making it very stiff. After the suspension install I noticed the axle and trailing bar flex. It may bend when you add power. Great project and good to hear y'all survived the hurricane.
