Trussing a 14 Bolt for Off-Road Axles: Step-by-Step Guide
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 фев 2024
- I show you how I use Fusion 360 and the Langmuir Systems CrossFire XR to make a truss for the 14 Bolt axle that we are using on our newest desert race truck. I feel comfortable saying that this is a good design. We have used the same truss on our older race truck for 8 races (including 4 Baja 1000s) and this truss completed the 1200 of the 2023 Baja 1000.
Here are some of the tools I used during this build.

Great video. Trussing is tough to do right. Great explanation about even cooling for the welds.
Hitting "x" on the keyboard will change a line to/from a construction line. Using keyboard vs clicking on screen is personal preference of course, but I found the keyboard to be quicker for me. Thanks for the videos, I learn something new every time.
Never knew that. Going to try it now. Thanks.
Those look like some serious brakes.😲

Hi Dave. Are you planning at some point to enter the KOH with one of your trucks, or build a rig specifically for it? Would love to see NTD at the Every Man Challenge!
It has crossed my mind.
I have been slowly working on an open source trophy truck project that would hopefully be able to lower the barrier of entry for other competitors. Right now I am working out the process for quickly and efficiently making jigs to speed up assembly of the plasma cut tubes.
My issue currently is that I don't have hard dimensions on where various tubes should be.
Would you have any interest in sharing some of your CAD designs so I have more solid numbers to work from? I totally understand if you want to keep that a team secret.
Would be happy to share. Will have to wait until I am back at my computer.
@@ntdracing What is the best way to get ahold of you now that your back from the mint?
Given the amount of fabricating and fitting, you might want to look into a 3d scanner.
That would be a great idea. Have you ever used one? Know of a good one. Thanks.
@@ntdracing I have a revopoint but don’t have any experience with it (had to move around the time I bought it) . There are a few competitors to the revopoint which review better. There are a few automotive channels out there using and reviewing them. Capabilities seem to depend on price and budget but no longer out of range of the backyard fabricator.
I just ordered an Einstar Shining 3D scanner. I have seen some really good reviews on RUclips. @@ntdracing
ever ran across a You Tube Channel called JEHC?
