Tracked all-terrain vehicle Hippo from Evgeny Petrov from Tobolsk. He writes about his all-terrain vehicle on the forum of the website under the nickname Evgenii72.
All terrain vehicle rear wheel drive. It is interesting with its layout, which differs from the others.
The performance characteristics:
Engine "Lifan" with a capacity of 9 hp, but subsequently replaced by a more powerful one.
Gearbox (gearbox) from the "Muscovite" two pieces.
There are two rear axles, the differential is welded, welded to each other.
A two-belt clutch for each axle is used for control.
Track rollers wheels from M-412.
The caterpillar is made of a conveyor belt 8 mm thick.
Tracks from PND-22mm, width-40 mm, length-440 mm, thickness 2 mm.
The caterpillar is 7.7 m long each.
The reductions go through belt drives by 1.5, through the gearbox.
On the gearbox-4.2.
