I am literally following this channel since barbie mustang gokart, and honestly, you were such a big inspiration for me to buy a tig welder and start doing my own stuff I can't even say how much. And each and every next build is just more and more abstract and sick! You all have gone up and over everything, so much experience and every next video just shows how much you learnt last time and use the knowledge in the next one it's just sooooo inspiring. I wanna build a buggy from a car myself to drive around the countryside, and honestly i WILL be looking back to these videos mostly to snatch on the control arms design and all the other suspension designs you did, because your channel is such a big encyclopedia of mechanical and design knowledge I couldnt have thought of myself.
That's how I felt one time after 2 hours on a griz 400 manual through snow, creeks and lots of hills and trees to zig zag around, last guy in line with the slowest quad getting yoked around in their tracks. I left it behind the bar and caught a ride back fukk all that. They all had 750 Polaris automatics independent rear suspension. It was 2002 so that was high tech. Lol. Even the kid on the banshee was frigging leading the way most time
Found you guys at King of the Hammers hanging out with The Fab Rats. its nice to see people who can design something, build it, then have the skill to ride it and push it to the limit. Kudos for some really awesome content, and keep up the great work!!!!!
What a riot. Ultra fab vs ultra cheap and a limp away wipeout. You guys have serious fun loving panache. Bring your Idaho can do to that crazy snow vehicle event in Scandinavia and make us proud.
I think they need more hp as is so two tracks would be half the go it already has. They need higher gears as well. If anything I'd like to see how the timber sled kit performs compared to the Amazon one.
I was waiting till the end to ask if Will did his 10. Noticed the minute he appeared in the video he had his phone in his back pocket. Glad to see you caught him
14:02 hey if you save your file as an svg then cut the design out on a piece of paper on a vinyl cutting machine , then you can test fit before wasting a piece of metal :)
My Gpa use to hang his engines from the ceiling like that to work on then. Ended up breaking down the rafters pretty bad. Roof had a big sag we had to fix. Just a heads up. Great build!
great build man! not that it matters too much, but those hexagons you added on the new swing arm should have more rounded corners. as I'm sure you are aware a sharp edge like that could lead to stress risers and increase the risk of part failure. keep up the good work!
You guys are top tier on my need to watch when you post. I mean good builds, good vibes, good doggos that might smell like moose poops 💩 haha I will keep up with all the builds
This is cool. One year I rode a bike in the snow with its sporty tires. Only dropped it once. I was tired of being stuck at home and I didn't have anything else. And I rode a 300 Rebel on a road that was a sheet of ice. That bike was too small for me but could ride in any conditions.
That was super dumb, I love it!!!! You guys continue to prove there are no rules. I REALLY want to see another gambler build, would be awesome to see yall out there (same weekend as overland expo PNW, would be awesome to see you guys crash both events!)
You can use it for gardening or for geothermal installations. Or, you hold your member to a bunch of feathers that are attached to the spinny thing while its on a kickstand, the DIY relations simulator.
Sticker idea just a large grid of hexagons with "This hexagon is brought to you by Grind Hard Plumbing " in between every other hexagon I would love to cut it to fit any location on my karts
Wish I was young as you guys. The last 25 years have been rough and now I don't have my health. I really did try and played pretty hard even with all that was on my plate. I certainly do have some cool stories to tell, just worried that those times are over now. I'm not young but not as old as you think I might be. 53 is the answer. Boys and gals, please take care of your health
When you stop @15:32 that front spindle will have tons of side flex. Those octo's are great for crush strength but do nothing, being 2d, to stop side flex. You're gonna need bracing there for sure. Update, then @16:56 you remind me I'm a dumb azz & you already know & was already planning a brace for that. Lmao. Thanks for all of your hard work making these projects & these vids for us to watch!!! Keep up the great work!!!
When u did all that cutting and fab work just to fit the shock, why didn't u just cut the brackets that the shocks go through and weild them over q bit?
Grom looks like it needs a longer track, for the weight of it all plus rider. LMAO! Problems with snow bikes. I was out in deep snow with just my snow machine. Thought I would go off trail and leave a Piss. When I stepped off my machine. I went waist deep in the snow. Had a hell of a time getting my ass back up on the machine. A snow bike would be nearly impossible. Once you stop in deep snow and try to put your foot down. There will be nothing there. I guess one needs to carry a snow shovel. Dig down to ground for a starting point again. Lol! Looks like a hoot though!
2:57 when it comes to cheap clones i would not thrust that the frame is in straight line :D i had a Mad Cow 250cc bike and the frame was everything other than straight. and it was super noticeable after u took all the body parts apart. when u lined the frame and back tire there was like 10° difference xD
Little trick I learned to make the arm mount wider use a scissor jack and a impact works way to well and the only way I use a scissor jack now after I had a suburban fall on me
Awesome project! The "from" is so nimble, you guys need to engine swap it or add more power so it's a little pocket ripper! Any updates on the 2JZ mower or the new shop?
To be fair, busa has couple horses more than this thing, so swap the tracks and see busa bury it self in 0.2 seconds, or do something actually utility in the while and put that track on wheel borrow and put electric motor on it. Already built one with ATV tire for soft ground but that has nothing to tracked borrow on snow.
Stud the track with a few to start and work your way up to where it has enough power to just barely break the traction of the track. This would help propel you forward in the corner's where if there is no stud's it just slip's in the corners and ya wipe out!

Loving how you all are able to make the craziest things and people support it. Love you guys 😂
We think it’s the coolest thing ever! Thanks for all the support
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo so do we,which is why we're all here :D
Why wouldn’t people support awesome stuff like this
Led me to think
The moment with the Doggo, ❤️. Love that you've done both, premium and budget. 😁
Glad to see Ethan is still in his hexagon phase
He will always be in the bestagons faze
Hexagon is the bestagon
ya know, it has the most adequate number of vertices.
Put tracks on anything is beyond awesome. Rippin and tearin' to snow is the best
From the worlds fastest to worlds worst! We had to keep you guys on your toes haha
Loving the channel fellas.. Keep it up!
Is this the next give away 🤔

@@lifeimitatingdeath3608 Thanks!
@@feminazislayer The next giveaway will be way cooler!
Get it? Got it? Good! Ethan enjoys making the goofy builds as much as the serious ones. Love it!

You should try to make the Grom a trike again and put two sets of tracks in the back and turn it into a snow trike
I think they need more hp as is so two tracks would be half the go it already has. They need higher gears as well.
If anything I'd like to see how the timber sled kit performs compared to the Amazon one.
This
@Ruger84 would probably need the timber sled if they gave it more power too.
I wanna see a zabel 700 dropped in there, it'd just be ridiculous 😆😆🤘
Fun project, good video. I appreciate you guys wearing your safety gear, it’s so much easier to watch. Play through.
These videos are really well put together! It felt less production and more like I was there in the shop with you guys.
You guys should see how fast the Hayabusa snow bike is around the corse I think it would be a top contender!
Yall keep bringing your A game with the content......AWSOME
I love these builds, I feel like you guys just go with the flow. You also show a bit more insight rather than a speed up video
14:00 I print stuff out 1:1 ratio on paper like 3 times before I laser metal. Sometimes I laser super thin scrap before cutting it proper.
I was waiting till the end to ask if Will did his 10. Noticed the minute he appeared in the video he had his phone in his back pocket. Glad to see you caught him
The "choose your character" bit was hilarious, I love those little bits being thrown into the videos. Keep it up d00ds! 👍👍
14:02 hey if you save your file as an svg then cut the design out on a piece of paper on a vinyl cutting machine , then you can test fit before wasting a piece of metal :)
I like how this time you add the reinforcement plate before you send it and break it. Learning from experience for the win
The firewood under the track to lift it into place brings a whole new meaning to "shade tree mechanic".
That grom has been used for so many projects made some good content wonder if it has another life left have a great weekend 👊 💨
Another awesome episode and build guys .
Love this channel . Keep up the great work 👍🏼
Another fine job of ingenuity on that little bike. She sounds a wee bit underpowered though. Nice job guys.👍👍🇨🇦
Not the snow tracks fault. You also lose power in the track conversion, and it's a fake grom. Heh 😅
Great job on the video folks! Thanks for making it.
15:49 😂😂will is great
the busa needs to be in the next fast and furious. Vin needs to see this.
I’d still 100% take a grom snow bike. Idc if it’s slow it would still be fun. It’s better then no snow bike
My Gpa use to hang his engines from the ceiling like that to work on then. Ended up breaking down the rafters pretty bad. Roof had a big sag we had to fix. Just a heads up. Great build!

keep up the good work!
circles, if you will
Wild bike! - did actually LOL when you cut the chain wearing your best safety squints while your safety glasses were perched on top your beanie! 😅
The big bike is what u ordered and the small one is actually what u got
My favorite ad ever, thanks Edwin!
The ultimate in small town winter commuting! I've never even rode a Grom. I need to get out more. Hahaha.
I’m curious to know exactly where you found a lot so cheap. Would you have a link to the one you bought?
i love how funny the bike looks and your dog is amazing😂
Good things come to those who smile. Have you smile today? Keep smiling.
Oh shit I finally catch an upload in the first 10 mins!
You guys are top tier on my need to watch when you post. I mean good builds, good vibes, good doggos that might smell like moose poops 💩 haha I will keep up with all the builds

Is there any update or progression with your new workshop? Or has this been postponed?
That was super dumb, I love it!!!! You guys continue to prove there are no rules.
I REALLY want to see another gambler build, would be awesome to see yall out there (same weekend as overland expo PNW, would be awesome to see you guys crash both events!)
Also! Is Ethan's dog a Border Collie? English Shepherd? Such a rad pup!!!
You have the Grom snow bike, VS the snow bike you were told not to worry about ‼😜👍
9:20 epic dog moment.
My wife just walked past you at Walmart. She called me asking if she should say hi. I told her not to be weird lol. Love your channel!
The entire collection of snowbikes, you now have them all, like endstones!
You can use it for gardening or for geothermal installations. Or, you hold your member to a bunch of feathers that are attached to the spinny thing while its on a kickstand, the DIY relations simulator.
That's good enough for my surron! Could I get a link where to get the track?
Side by side it reminds me of a Lvl1 vs lvl100 app ad
Seen someone put a snow bike kit on a Harley and I immediately thought if this channel
i love how the table has engine parts built into it
Living up to the name... Grind Hard! Love it 🤟
I've been ratchet strapping my bikes to the rafters of my garage for years.
Glad to see someone else doing it for once 😂
2 of those cheap tracks side by side on separate swingarms? Or a track up front an convert to 2 wheel drive?
Sticker idea just a large grid of hexagons with "This hexagon is brought to you by Grind Hard Plumbing " in between every other hexagon I would love to cut it to fit any location on my karts
I'm ready to see you that Hayabusa in some open field getting it
Wish I was young as you guys. The last 25 years have been rough and now I don't have my health.

Great video! Rave Will cracked me up.
18:26 what was that song will was jamming to called?
SpaceX engineering, love it!

Scamers !! Watch out
Give the dream camper bigger tires and the do a taco-bronco-camper crawling competition
That Hayabusa conversion is amazing 👏 👍
What cad software do you guys use? I’m wondering cuz solid works is expensive.
SNOWBIKE THE WORLD !!
Love what you guys do. Wish I had the knowledge to do some of these creative ideas. Keep them coming.
MASTER FABER...Great work SIR..
I think I mandatory that every vehicle that grind hard builds it has to have favorite shapes on it
2020+ Crf110 timber sled kit basically bolts up to a grom 👌
Need a passenger filling those pegs, wheely everywhere. You guys are awesome big kids!
When u did all that cutting and fab work just to fit the shock, why didn't u just cut the brackets that the shocks go through and weild them over q bit?
Been using rachet straps like that for years it definitely works great
Ur Welding skills are amazing Ethan
@00:13:37 PUSH-UPS He has his phone in his back pocket again!!!
SCAM
TIP OF THE DAY GUYS use a 2.5 inch ratchet strap handle with a small ratchet strap and you can wrap 7 to 10 feet of strap before binding up
Grom looks like it needs a longer track, for the weight of it all plus rider.
LMAO! Problems with snow bikes. I was out in deep snow with just my snow machine. Thought I would go off trail and leave a Piss. When I stepped off my machine. I went waist deep in the snow. Had a hell of a time getting my ass back up on the machine.

Awesome video!! I own a grom with a 181 bbk they are fun little bikes
@2:33 that dude is so high
Dog comes in , both pause and say "oh hello sir!" LMFAO
Little trick I learned to make the arm mount wider use a scissor jack and a impact works way to well and the only way I use a scissor jack now after I had a suburban fall on me
Where did you guys get the rear track? Awesome video
Id like to see you guys put the track from a snowmobile on a jet ski. I think the extra flotation of the jet ski hull will help in really deep snow.
Or a small boat like a dinghy or something
Bro how the dog was soo happy☺️
The ski on that lil thing🤣😃
Man I see a crazy RC snowmobile that this track could be used for HHHMMMM where did you get it from
So when will we see the busa up in the mountains?
I got a big wheel kit on my cheap 150 that doesn’t have a secondary chain tensioner and I’ll change chain every couple weeks
You guys should rivet on some angle aluminum or something to the little track, it seems to lack traction in snow hahaha
The lathe you have looks like my dad's old lathe is the belt pulley one piece and looks hand made. My dad lived in Illinois
Awesome project! The "from" is so nimble, you guys need to engine swap it or add more power so it's a little pocket ripper!
Any updates on the 2JZ mower or the new shop?
To be fair, busa has couple horses more than this thing, so swap the tracks and see busa bury it self in 0.2 seconds, or do something actually utility in the while and put that track on wheel borrow and put electric motor on it. Already built one with ATV tire for soft ground but that has nothing to tracked borrow on snow.
I love how this is metal shop's version of shit posting :D I adore it!!
So I've been searching for that little track kit for a project of mine... anyway u might be able to help me??..
not the big one on the crotch rocket
Finally the pup gets camera time
You guys always put smile on my face live your videos keep ‘em coming
Stud the track with a few to start and work your way up to where it has enough power to just barely break the traction of the track. This would help propel you forward in the corner's where if there is no stud's it just slip's in the corners and ya wipe out!
Pretty similar to putting your foot down on a 3 wheeler. Reminds me of the good old days of running myself over with the neighbor kid's ATV.
Dog reminds me of that ex GF that wants your full attention when you're trying to hang out with your friends. Nice job on making the kit work
The dubstep edit 🔥🔥😂
