    One advantage to the angle iron is you can easily see the axle turn.
    Once you have beautiful welds and running within a few thousands you can't tell if it is turning.
    I wouldn't worry about the axles. Very nice job.
    Actually the whole thing is looking awesome.

    That air valve on that air over hydraulic jack is killing it's performance, take that thing off, put you a ball valve or some other free flowing valve, we did this conversion for ours in the shop, you can tell it's the same jack! Also heard you say your compressor isn't big enough, if you can find a tank at the scrap yard, like another compressor take, plumb it in between your compressor and hose blocking off all other outlets your not using, gives you more ai volume and that is probably enough to make it easier for your compressor, we have special tank we hook up to shop compressor when we use our 1inch impact for big boy bolts 😂, makes a world of difference 😉

    For the front sprocket, maybe you can bend a thin walled tube in the same radius as the sprocket and then cut it in half? Then make it bolt on so you can remove it? Like a cover if you know what I mean?

    Seems prety much every project, you weld an axle like this at least twice.
    It might be worth it to build a dedicated mount that turns really slow, keeps it aligned, and don't need to super-heat those rubber covers.
    I suppose something like that would take a lot of space. These huge projects are pretty impressive, doing in such a small shop.
    The disassembly was beautiful. ;-) Looking forward to more on this one. Most over the top project yet.

  • @n20cpri
    @n20cpri Год назад

    Awesome! Make sure to pull those boots to make sure the axles are properly greased after putting all that heat in them with the welding. Also looks like you might need more bracing in the door area. With the doors off looks like you only have the one "door" bar and it's brace. Seems like that area could fold.

    A quick wipe with some acetone should remove any oil from weld surfaces. I would guess if you lathe the surface rather than grind you'll have much better results - grinding can embed some material in the surface. I think cut off wheels and disc grinders are the worst for this, compared to a stone or sandpaper, but I'm not a pro.

    You usually get porosity when the gas doesn't shield properly. Maby try turning the gas up slightly and see if it helps. The metal looked very clean to me so other than lack of gas would be my guess. Also try relocating the ground, sometimes that helps. Love the videos man.

    you can put pretension all the chains on this project.

    Nice Job on the CVs bro! I think I would sleeve them because I tend to overbuild things but I'm sure those CVs and shafts are made for twice the vehicle weight and horsepower of this vehicle so they are probably just fine. I'm really loving this Mid-shaft Chain drive design! It's a hell of a concept and you've proven it really works with rear-wheel drive amazingly. Can't wait to see how this works! Hope it's not too loud. Not that I would care too much if I had it in the woods. This one is going to be a beast!

    Union boilermaker here (a trade that would mutually benefit you and us, we need folks exactly like you), porosity issues , try using a gas lense, or put a Y in your 100% argon hose and purge your weld. You mentioned putting a shallow bevel so you didn't have to weld as much, that makes me think maybe you had to stick your tungsten out too far to get to the center. I'd bet on those issues first. Did you know they now make a clear cup for your TIG torch? They're awesome. Also, Tig is good for the center, maybe first couple passes but that's as far as I'd go, I'd stick weld the rest. It would take me probably ten minutes to make that weld, no offense, I've been doing it forever. I've learned quite a few things from your channel, just thought I'd try and help. Also, idk what state you live in but being a boilermaker is a great career and you are seriously what we look for , you have a good mechanical head on your shoulders!

    Perhaps air is getting trapped under the weld (thus causing porosity) due to too narrow a bevel you're welding into. Perhaps a wider bevel would assure you're welding clear to the bottom of the bevel, and therefore not creating any voids of trapped air beneath the weld pool.

    I only have 1 concern...
    The front chain tensioner will slide/move when a high torque is applied. The clamping force on the smooth tube won't be enough. You will need some sort of splines or second mounting point to keep the clamps from sliding on the tube.
    But as always, great content ! Can't wait to hear that 1300cc scream!

  • @Henrik.Yngvesson
    @Henrik.Yngvesson Год назад

    If you let the material cool down a little between passes it's good. But don't weld at cold thick stuff cause that will draw to much heat from the weld and might cause it to harden and get brittle, CrMo definitely requires pre-heat because of that. And to much heat will only induce grain growth in the HAZ and also make it brittle like when you do wide weaves, so several narrower string passes are better. Each pass will also anneal the previous weld so avoid weaving even though it's tempting and looks nice.
    At my IWS course we did a comparison with MMA(stick), one piece as cold as possible and several strings, and the other hot and weaving. Even though we had slag inclusions in the cold weld as the stick went out and got stuck several times as we had such low amperage it had higher tensile strength with an inclusion than the hot weld.
    So if you want strength then preheat a little if it's thick stuff, keep the amperage low and no weaving and let the temp get back down between the passes. And make smooth transitions, a sharp angle on a very bulgy weld could become a stress riser and induce a crack so avoid that, grind down the weld if necessary.
