very nice!
how is the trans?
looks like it needs window nets :)
-
thats a sweet machine
-
I like it!
-
Sharp! Can't wait to see it get some use!
-
Whens testing?
-
that looks awesome!
-
Whens testing?
I still have some bugs to work out.
1) Bleed brakes better
2) Mount bump stop pads
3) Add Nitrogen to shocks
-
very nice!
how is the trans?
looks like it needs window nets :)
Trans works (shifts) Only R-1-2 so far. Wont know if all gears work until i get some open runs.
-
Love it.
-
will the profender buggy be finished?
-
Won't be around next Sunday. The buggy could be finished by then.
-
I think I land at noon Sunday...
-
Looks like a mean rock ripping machine!
-
glad I scrolled back up to see the new picts posted.. wow that is an awesome machine...
-
spent 20 mins chasing down a clunk. Turns out it was the winch clevis banging around... :o

How do you like those harness's? Thinking about going with those.
-
Wont know until I have some seat time. But I do like the 2" belt and the release buckle better. I might move the shoulder harness mount, maybe...
-
Looks tough! ;D

Thats Too Funny! Gotta love a new build.
Looks amazing, cant wait to see it on the trails.
What is the wheel base?

WB 117" Height 69.5" Belly 19" Chassis width 50" Total Length 13'
-
weight unknown ... my guess w/ out fuel, tools and driver 4350lbs
-
4900
-
I wont know how to drive it if it weighs less than 6K. ;D
-
this thing is dead sexy, love it. i wish my shit was as low and looked as good.
Needs window nets.
-
Bugs found.
1) repair brake line / add protection
2) side nerf bars
3) rear bumper / spare tire mount
4) fuel issue
-
That thing did awesome for first day out, went out and came back under it's own power. sick ride, looks like it's going 100mph even when it's parked.
-
Kasey wants to know when Thomas is going to come back and wash side of camper. All us go by it 5 times and the kid w/ the 5HP go cart roosts it. LOL
-
Completed:
1) Side nerf bars added and tested.
2)Rear brake lines replaced and rerouted with protection added.
Working on:
Shifting / Rev limit problems.
After some hots laps in 4lo and 4hi, I noticed that the tranny shifts perfect in 4hi.
In 4lo the tranny will hold 1st until 4500 RPM and sometimes beyond (rev limit)
I looked through my wiring diagrams and found that the NP241C has a ball switch that shorts to ground when the case is in low range. This signal is sent to the PCM to to tell the tranny it has adjusted shift points.
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/241C_SW.jpg)
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/Circuit_1694.jpg)
I also think my fuel pump is failing. >:( It was NEW...
-
When the PCM or VCM 4WD-low input signal (circuit 1694) is high (approximately 12 volts) the computer will assume the truck is in a range other than 4WD-low and will command the shift points based on the truck being in 4WD-high or 2WD-high. If the truck is really in four-low, the upshifts will be late for the given throttle opening. In addition, the truck will exhibit overly sensitive forced throttle downshifts.
In each case the truck will exhibit conditions which will be objectionable to the customer, but will not set any trouble codes (1993-1995 models).
-
Update: 4lo shifts perfect now ;D no more crazy RPMs...
-
Well I think I got all the bugs worked out. Buggy felt very solid yesterday.
To do list:
Change out the engine break in oil for full synthetic oil.
Build removable spare tire carrier.
Move gas pedal over 1"
Grip tape on floors.

Broken tranny tail and adapter
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/dab1536f.jpg)
-
we have the technology....
5.3ls, 4l60e, divorce chevy 205 :)
still sounds like a 1500$ weekend for ya though, ouch.
kinda like my 610$ tree i ran over bah!
-
Im thinking TBI 350/ TH400/Divorced 205
I just dont want the extra hood height
-
ya, between hood work, computer, harness, headers, and trans adaptor, new engine mounts, exhaust work, id probably be thinking the same thing-
o wait, i did that haha, never mind.
-
Found my failure:
Turns out that my super fancy removable subframe/skid plate was not up to the task. It looks like it took a huge hit right in front of the tranny mount and bent the whole belly upward. The transfer case was mounted closer to the cross member so it did not move. The motor mounts are crazy strong so they did not move.
So it was like breaking a stick over your knee. It point loaded in the middle. "SNAP"
-
on the bright side it's an explainable failure, I always look at that as a good thing.
-
I picked up another 4L60E. So im going to give this drivetrain setup another try.
I like the lower gearing combo of the tranny and case.
Just need to over build the subframe this time.
Speaking of, Smike can you get any size / wall tube?
-
i can get ANYTHING for the right $$ haha, what are you looking for?
-

not sure yet. I just got the motor / tranny out.
Maybe 1-5/8 x .25" wall (2) sticks
-
So here is my engine tic.

should look like this:
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/2012_BUGGY/IMG_0172.jpg)
-
Horay for actual good news
-
Now I just need to figure out my low oil pressure.
-
Bent Skid plate
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/IMG_0183.jpg)
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/IMG_0182.jpg)
-
Now I just need to figure out my low oil pressure.
So, low oil pressure is from cam bearings that got hammered.
Theory is that I had too much oil in the pan and the crank was splashing into a froth.
Aerated oil is not good for an IC engine.
-
i call bs on too much oil i run at least 2 quarts over any motor i race haha
-
Buggy is sad.
I removed the engine for repairs and cut out ALL of the subframe and skidplate.
I got the engine back with new cam bearings and started mocking the new subframe. 2x2x.25" wall box tube with .25" skid plate. I'm going for beef, screw light weight...
I also changed the tranny mount so that its not part of the lower subframe.
I hope to have this thing ready for Big Dogs.

you put your link bolts not straight again, wont the geometry bind up like the first iteration of the rear before?

If I was bushings, yes.
-
o, swaping out those bushings i see for heims?
-
the lower links front and rear frame side were/are ballistic weld on joints
-
I figure I have 1 or 2 more nights of fab before I can burn in the new steel.
Then it will be time for final assembly (again). ::)
Installing the engine and tranny is like a bar puzzle now.
-
Subframe complete.
Most of the little mods are done to allow for the new chassis.
Transfercase comes out the top now. I made the scatter shield removeable.
also built a type of tranny mount "sling" to keep everything off the subframe/skidplate.

Got her running last night. :)
Punch list:
1) front drive shaft
2) Engine skid
3) seats
4) skins
5) drive into trailer
-
lets go wheeling
-
looking good.
couple of us are heading to Whispering pines sunday if your interested for shake down!
-
This pig is ready for another beat down!
-
new belly and skid worked great. was a nice feeling knowing i could bash rocks and not hurt it. ;D
Broke the front drive shaft 1 hour into the first day. boo. but some thin wheel work and parking lot welding and she was good to go for the rest of the weekend. thanks to smike for the use of his welder.
Rear axle hub seal leaks now.
Front pass side upper link mount took a beating, still works, but not pretty anymore...
change/top off some fluids and shes good to go.
I think on board air is next for this pig.
-
Working on some OBA.
York 210 AC with twin V belt clutch.
I spun a serpentine off a power steering pulley and then spun down the v belt pulley
pressed the serp on and welded it.

-
Nice conversion. Gives me a new thought for the Dumpbus instead of mating a pulley and running a secondary V belt like I did on the Dakota.
-
I need some good cutting tools for my lathe. Where do you get quality tooling?
-
Cut the factory AC bracket to make room for the York.
Then made up a new mount bracket. Still need to make up the top side of the bracket.
Also need a small brace on the bottom side.
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/CC6A327C-4314-45B3-AFC1-D4112B6C89EB-3248-00000763AC3D65E9.jpg)

-
Does the separate crack case still have the same advantage when run on its side?
-
i have an extra bracket for you, and another on the tbi motor i pulled from the buggy
-
Home made pulley did not fit. :( OD was 6-1/4" Ordered a new one 5-7/8" $65
Its a tight fit under the hood.
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/6E4A1A48-09BC-420C-B32B-E322B4D476A0-5853-00000A5B0BD8B4DE.jpg)

-
Finished the top bracket. Now the York is captured with 6 bolts.
New Serp belt @ 100.5" FYI P/N 5061005 50=Belt 6=6groove 1005=100.5"
(http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l264/jeepgif/EB5204BF-3641-4820-9382-1B174A63211C-5853-00000A5B14857503.jpg)
-
Welded up a small stainless tank and some fittings.
Installed an air intake filter, check valve, oil drop out filter, and pressure blow off.
All plumbed with stainless.
Just waiting on the 90-120 PSI pressure switch.

-
Props for the nice work! You've got skills!
-
Ok now that the whole job / money thing is all figured out. Time to figure out some upgrades.
1). Tires
2). Front axle shafts/slugs
3). ??
-
Price is still good on the Krawlers.
I like the 41.5x13.5x17 Pitbull rockers myself.
-
I was looking at 42x15 17 swamper sx2
I thought they were great on my cj.
-
my TSL side walls just seem so week.
yukon super shafts and Nitro joints and be done with the front end until LS time :)

Unless someone has them in stock they'll be tough to find. Interco has no scheduled production :-
-
my top 3
1)PBR 42X15X17
2)TSLSX 42X15X17
3)BFG Krawlers RED LABEL 39"
I need to do this soon :o
-
There's 39" red labels on the Rausch forum right now.
-
set on pirate too, with nice wheels 3300
-
http://www.rc4x4.org/rcforum/index.php?topic=19169
-
it must be the pirate coming out in me, but if i read one more dreamer asking what size H2 wheels or or what size tire are 37 or 39 krawlers or krts......
if i were selling them i think id just ignore- they obviously are just fishing!
-

[piggy troll]
will the krawlers fit on my h1 wheels? i read on the internet that you can put a 17" tires on a 16.5" wheel?
[/piggy troll]
-
haha- if i ever got those boggers id try to mount one on one of my KMCs and see what happen ahahaaa
-
I think I'm going to go with the krawlers just to see what all the hype is about.
If I think they suck they will resell fast.
-
Do you want me to order them or you buying used?
-
I want new for sure. Just researching the weak sidewall issues. But I let you know by this weekend.
-
Smike had a good point. Could just be people running very low pressure while running fast. That will do it every time.
-
i see to still cut brand new KRTs at 25psi.
i guess its all how and where you put your foot down.
id skip on the crawlers, most people say the KRT is 90% of the crawler with 10X the side wall.
for a wreck wheeler IROKs or Pitbuls, or SX's seem to do the job if you dont drive like you stole it... which apparently i have forgotten how that works.
-
ill see what the old king has to say, he has been through a few sets of crawlers

Erik says red crawlers for wreck wheeling anyday of the week as long as its warmer than 32oF
he is running RCQ on them and never had a problem wreck wheeling
-
That's right, red krawlers are of the sort that turn into ice cubes and won't move for love nor money on snow, aren't they
-
some discussion about actual size

Reds to be ordered Monday. 39"
-
Ive seen it first hand on the trail with a few rigs and a bunch of us had to push a 100k buggy into his trailer because his red labels froze in the cold.
Other than winter wheeling. They are the winingest tire in the rocks.

I dont plan to wheel in the real cold weather.

Score! Maybe I'll drive the truck to work and then swing down.

These tires are massive.

Great east coast tire IMO

These things are sticky! I broke a Snap-On pry bar trying to mount these things. >:(
I had to use way more Simple Green than I normally do to get them to slip on the rim.
Took me 2 hours of fucking with it to figure out I had to douche the thing to get it to go on.
But they look great on a 10" wide rim. Thanks Ryan!
1 down 3 to go...

good idea

if I was man enough to step up to a big boy tire size I would 100% be on Krawlers..
is simple green better than that snot crap?

Its crazy slick on tire rubber. I picked up a new bottle today to do the last three tires. The new bottle has a "foam" setting.
They went on easy! My old bottle must have been thinned out.
As a bonus it cleans your tires and rims...

Just need to change a rear wheel hub seal and this thing is ready for the new season.

Looks even better than before

That is one sweet ride!

Looks great

Looks bitchin gif!

damn that is a sweet ass buggy.
-
You sitting on your air bumps at ride height?
-
throw a psc ram on that guy and a 6.0ls, i bet you have a $50K buggy for sale
love it.
-
It's one of my favs fo sho
-
You sitting on your air bumps at ride height?
yes, just kissing the pad.
full bump stroke is 1" before Coilover full bump.
-
Seems reasonable given relative mounting positions.
-
I run 5" of up stroke and 11" of droop on the front.
Rear is 8" up and down.
The numbers are based on a low CG and low Anti squat 4 link numbers I wanted.
(I would have to dig up my math)
-
You engineers and your math............. Just put the links where they fit. ;D
-
Mine is set up the same way, but then I got wondering how much the bumps would really effect the spring weight. Right now with no air in the air shocks the air bumps only compress an 1" with full weight on them.

How did the Reds do?

looked like they were sticking good.
trans slipping in reverse,
this guy also deserves some 1350s EVERYWHERE
-
the reds work too well for anything less than 1350s!

Hmm.., Good to know.

stop it, you know this matt :)
ls and sticky 40s the rule should be no less than 1410 in the rear ahaha

How did the Reds do?
REDS are the shit!
I need to learn to drive them. My weak link is no longer traction! :o
I guess I need to upgrade my rear driveshaft joints.
Im going to need new 35 spline stubs for the front too. I thought those were going to be the first to go...
Got to pull the tranny and get it rebuilt. was slipping bad in REV.
But I was getting lazy picking lines because they were going up everything.
The rear driveshaft was case in point. I was hard into a big rock on the front axle and gas it to try to roll the rock (J truck style ::)) but the REDS did not slip one bit, so BANG!

It was pretty loud

more $$$ though!

more $ than doing it multiple times? almost never.
-
my tolerance for $ over multiple down time at 4 or 6 hrs away is lessing as i age lol
-
Doing 1410 shafts is almost the same cost. Just gotta find the right parts. Super duty rear shafts are 1410 2 piece on some trucks. I got mine on ebay for $100 or something. That gets you all parts necessary for a 2 piece front shaft.

You should talk to your chassis builder as well. 9 hours to get the motor and trans out is a little annoying. :)

My junk yard search was a good one.
I scored a Ford Super Duty front driveshaft and a front shaft from a late 80's blazer.
The Ford shaft is a great source for 1 ton parts.
First, the CV is a true Spicer 1350. Next the Slip yoke is also a 1350 with a 1.5" 16 spline.
For my use I need to mod the flange to mate to the stock 241 output flange.
-
The R3 GM is on the right.
The Ford center hole is only 2". So I had to open it up to the GM 3.125"

The blazer front shaft is a 1/2 ton CV 1310. The drive shaft I broke uses this style.
On my driveshaft the slip yoke is a Ford 1350 with a 1.5" 16 spline and uses 1/4" wall tube.
I rebuilt this shaft to have as a spare. This time I used Spicer 1310 non greasable u-joints.
I could see obvious break points at the grease fittings on the joints that blew apart.
I know it will hold up to a lot of abuse, however I wont trust this shaft for crazy heavy use as I have learned...

USA Standard shafts are made by Yukon - same materials, process, plant, drawings, etc. The U-Joint area specs aren't met. Meaning they won't hold a CTM or other aftermarket joint, so they are downgraded to USA Standard. As long as you are fine with running Spicer joints, this will never be an issue. They are still strong and etc.

Gave me a quote of $400 for inner shafts and joints only. Lame.
I never understood the quote forums. they NEVER give a better price than what is listed on the websites. stupid..
I have yet to get a quote that was a good deal.

Pulled the 14B cover to check for water. All oil.
Noticed the bottom of the axle was getting thin. In fact the bottom most bolt for the cover was ground off.

Should be good for a few more seasons.

I need to change out the bushing ends for heims on my upper links at the frame.
Bushings suck. I thought they would absorb the vibes as not to feel it in the chassis. But they cant take the load.

Too much twisting? Smike will also point out they need lube to last.
Tapatalking in traffic
-
Bushing do not last in a buggy. No lube or anti twist will help. Smashing the axle back and forth destroys them. I am anti-bushing in anything that sees moderate off road use.

Damaged brake line below :o
For what ever reason I had a spare. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/fra-311040/overview/ :)
During our high speed runs the brake line got pinched between the upper link and the chassis. That means I bottomed out the shocks and the bumps Time to increase the charge on both. Also need to clearance 1/2" on the chassis to allow space for the hoses and brake line.

Time for upgrades. Ive been lazy about this because I had a pile of 1310 drive shafts.

572 is bogger flog certified.

old front drive shaft was at its limits.
this is a d44 pinion stub i used when i made the first shaft. about ready to pop...

Those tires are hooking up well!
-
details of front axle just for giggles?
was it 4.10's as found or did you build it for the buggy build?
-
Was 4:10.
-
Smike do you spin down your 14b yokes to 2" ?
-
no, but a 14 bolt pinion with the gear cut off is a light pres inside 2" x 120 wall dom- fine for a protected shaft- like on 571
572 rear mid shaft is 2" DOM with 1.75x250 wall dom pressed insided
-
this is a D60 pinion I machined to fit my pillow block bearing. This will allow me to use a 1350 yoke. i figure this is the weakest point in my driveline now.

what size carrier bearing is that? 1.25"? is it solid flange or hollow?
matt broke a hallow flange 2" on chocolate thunder 8)

solid stainless pillow block with steel bearing. yes 1.25"
Im more worried about the pinion. I wonder if i weakened it with the machine work. But i figure its the same as whats in the axle...
-
i was wondering the same. my band saw just sits and pollishes a pinion if you try to cut it. have to use a cut off wheel. you must have used some carbide serous tools on a lathe to cut the case harness off
-
i bet your fine, the welding we do to the OD any way probably destroys the integrity of any added heat treat

no, CV bolts are easy to get to

No other damage found. Ordered a new gasket kit.

Hard to tell what is actually off? The ram support just out of parallel ever so slightly?
It would bug me also but not sure if I'd actually RE-DO it!

The way I look at it is what's it gonna do after a few hard hits on a rock?
its my OCD i cant leave it... i will cut it off and redo it this weekend
i dont think rocks will move it the ram mounting plate is 9/16!

3) New 1-1/8" bore, brake master cylinder for more volume. ( less pedal travel ) was 1" bore
also adding mechanical stop to brake pedal to stop pedal stroke before bottoming out master cylinder bore.
i have found that in a panic stop situation the brake booster allows for enough force to bottom out the master cylinder.
4) heat shield to block heat soaking from coolant fan blowing on the fuel cell.
only a small part of the cell is exposed to the fan, however i have noticed a pressurized fuel cell spitting gas out the vent tube.
All parts sitting on the work bench.

Sounds good.
Question about brake system volume?
Can you achieve more volume to the calipers by increasing brake line diameter?
Or swapping in 1/2 ton calipers on the 60?
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
-
brake line diameter doesn't mean anything. some claim excessive flex line or low quality rubber line eats up volume because of bulge.
smaller diameter pistions on the calipers would be more travel but less force. i changed to 1/2 on the 60 front and dont see a difference. i do notice my rear brake pads are wearing 4X as fast as front.
-
What is more efficient in a hydralic brake system?
Velocity or volume?
Smaller lines should flow less volume but more line pressure?
And vice Versa?
Just curious.
Need to address 2 pumps necessary on buggy system.

forget about efficient and velocity. a braking system is basically a static system in our use. yes there are things like heat and cavitation but ignore that for now....
pressure is Force / area is all you need to know. with a MC, you have stroke and bore. we run E350 MC that have 1 3/8" bore and about 1/2" longer stroke than the corvette MC. your brake pressure is determined by petal force / bore area... your stroke x bore area is your volume you can push at that pressure to your calipers. There are many "areas" you can adjust to change any of these things. bore, stroke, petal geometry, caliper sizes, booster or non booster, ect.
Hose diameter does not effect any of these things (negligible). a 3/16 dia brake line has more than enough volume to work on any of our systems with out causing restrictions that would slow up "petal feel" or create excessive heat.
2 pumps? are you talking fuel now?
-
Our buddy DJ hay a hydro boost system, it's sick. Can lock up all 4 40's at any speed.
-
If you have to pump the pedal you have pads backing off for some reason (warped rotor, loose wheel bearing, sloppy slides) or trapped air.

you have a part number for that E350 MC?

do you have a proportioning valve?

no
i know its probably because more volume at pressure going to the rear from a front disk / rear drum MC thats on a front 3/4ton disk and front 3/4ton disk system bah

I had an adjustable one on the J truck. worked great. that thing had the best brakes!

buggy 100%
I was lazy and did not return the PSC power steering pump. So i installed it.
Steering is back to 100%, maybe even a little better...
I did take it apart first to inspect it. It is a new pump, not reman. It looks to be built for PSC based on the stamping i saw on it.
It has the pressure and flow maxed out to the P132 pumps upper limits. 1500 PSI and 4-5 GPM
I will confirm this with my testing equipment once i get it set up.
This will be a good test for my buggy because I can buy a new P132 pump (standard automotive) and modify it myself to get the same results.
At a cost of $42... not $166 form PSC.
-
Upgrades report.
cooling system worked great.
almost too good, system was running so cool i think it was bumping back into open loop mode.
Needs a little fine tuning on the fan controller.
Steering was perfect.
Brakes were great.

I did notice that my alternator was only putting out 13vdc
i checked the amperage draw on the alternator with fans on high and lights on. 74 amps !
Stock alternator is 105 amps
Ordered a new 220amp alternator.
-
High output alternator fail.
This one is sold by Powermaxusa.
Specs: CS130 220 amp @ 1200 RPM
They use an overdrive pulley to do that.
i installed this alternator and tested it for amps,volts,heat.
Results:
Idle @ 675 RPM: 105A / 14.5V / 238 F case temp
@ 1500 RPM: 217A / 13.8V / 252 F case temp
This alternator runs extremely HOT!
Next, I started recording CAN data and let the engine come up to temp and heat soak everything.
I found many voltage drop outs.
So, back in the box it goes to be returned.

not sure i understand the problem.
-
I dont know the root cause of the issue and i really dont care. I just know that the alternator would stop charging for no other reason than maybe it was over heated.
Here is a zoomed in view of the data for one of the drop outs.

This one is a keeper.
Upgraded my charging wire to 4 awg.

Goal: remove all the crappy ballistic joints and stop bending the lowers.
All new 7075 T6 aluminum links installed. 2.375" lowers / 2.0 " uppers.
that was a lot of work... but was half the cost of buying them made to order.
