    This has got to be one of the fastest builds we have seen with our engine! We are thrilled to see the finished build. Can not wait to see the MPH you are getting with this build, as you mentioned when you maxed out the throttle the torque converter kicks in. Overall, awesome video and glad you are getting the most out of our engine!

    The recent surge and interest in these mini Jeeps brought here. Your mods need to be turned into a “kit” or people need to send their jeeps to you😂. C90 adventures needs to get with you guys have you convert his and try that Moab trip again. 😉
    This is an incredible build. Looking forward to seeing more.

      ABSOLUTELY agree, and as a Kit they could sell as a complete kit OR by sections that could be modified in different assembly forms, like rear suspension only, steering only etc.

    Man good stuff. You guys are cool together, do great work and excellent videography and editing. Enjoyable to watch. I think with more content (especially like a popular build/car or something a lot of guys wrench on) your going to blow up and sub count will go through the roof! Good job fellas, subbed, I wanna see more of this build.

    Hiem joints and a track bar are a must on these wide Chinese carts. It is impossible to keep a swing arm from breaking when the entire weight is transferred from one wheel to another on every bump. After a mile of welding wire and ton of mods I finally had my kids fairly trouble free.

  • @danw1955
    @danw1955 3 месяца назад

    I really like the mods up to the point where you lost reverse in the process. That's going to severely limit what you can do out in the woods (or backing up to a trailer, now that you have a receiver hitch)? Go Power Sports makes a couple of different fwd/rev boxes that you could use to alleviate that problem though.😉 Nice work you guys!😊

    • @milesmac00
      @milesmac00 3 месяца назад +1

      Reverse box on an 18hp is questionable at best, plus no place to put one (we looked) - Trailer coming soon....It will all make sense in the end 😁

    • @milesmac00
      @milesmac00 8 месяцев назад

      The factory "charging system" is 1-2 amp output, barely enough to keep a small battery charged, The alternator is rated at 30 amps.

    is the engine governed still at 3600rpm? i heard your not supposed to use a torque converter on a governed engine.

    • @milesmac00
      @milesmac00 8 месяцев назад

      The engine is governed to 3800 and the torque converter is rated for use at that speed, you can change weights and springs to adjust .

    The two men that literally know everything, (mad respect statement) what they have purposely forgotten is no longer pertinent to man’s existence here on earth. I didn’t want a mini jeep but now I want their mini jeep manufactured absolute! I’m sure nasa will be calling soon or is that your current day job. Either way the mini jeep company should fire everyone on payroll and hire just you two.

    I would have used a quad engine. You lost reverse. You need reverse in the woods. Guess the free engine was the deciding factor. Nice build otherwise.
