All terrain vehicle It has a tipping frame. The author wanted to make a large, and powerful all-terrain vehicle with a good carrying capacity. Also, the author tried, for the most part, to avoid additional components and assemblies, to increase the overall reliability of the design of the all-terrain vehicle. The result was a pretty nice looking all-terrain vehicle that can carry up to six passengers, as well as all their luggage.
Materials, parts and mechanisms used to create this all-terrain vehicle:
1) an internal combustion engine from an Oka car.
2) Bridges from the Volga car
3) the steering column from the Niva
4) wheels from Kraz lightweight
5) throttle from gas-66
6) a metal profile, as well as sheets.
7) CV joint from Range Rover with a 4.4 liter engine
Consider in more detail the steps of creating an all-terrain vehicle.
To begin with, the author took up the wheels of the all-terrain vehicle:
The vi-3 tires were stripped and lightened.
The bridges of the all-terrain vehicle were disassembled and treated with special paint to protect against corrosion:
An engine was installed on the all-terrain vehicle:
The knuckle from gas-66 was disassembled and cleaned for subsequent installation on the frame of an all-terrain vehicle. It is from this fist that the knot of breaking the frames of the all-terrain vehicle will be made. The fist after cleaning and disassembling:
CV joint at the turning point from CV joint from Range Rover with a 4.4 liter engine.
Then, the author began to manufacture wheels specifically for vi-3 tires:
The floor of the outer edge was welded onto a metal strip to reinforce the entire structure as a whole:
But the wheels are assembled:
Plates with metal mounts were made:
A BMW hydraulic power steering pump is installed, although the pulley still needs to be fixed:
The back of the all-terrain vehicle frame is created:
A bridge was installed on the front of the frame, the rear axle of the all-terrain vehicle will be installed in the same way:
Used bridges from the Volga, sable pair at 4.55. the differential was replaced by two axles and the gap was adjusted by paint with gasoline.
Thus, the differential lock looks, or a new blank under it, to be precise. The second exit is intended for the winch:
The CV joint was modernized by using a shank from the Volga, as well as a bearing housing:
Then, some improvements were made in order to avoid contraction of the axle shafts from lateral loads:
Then the author proceeded to install the caliper:
Here is the drive of the rear section of the all-terrain vehicle, as you can see there is plasma spraying under the bronze bushings:
The boat frame design was made, after which the author proceeded to manufacture kingston and painting:
The rear frame was painted special. primer BODY, and then applied anti-gravel BODY 950. As a result, it turned out a smooth matte color. the front frame of the all-terrain vehicle was primed and coated with BODY 930 mastic.
Here is a picture of the rear half of the all-terrain vehicle:
And here is the front of the all-terrain vehicle half frame. By the way, before applying the protective layers of paints, primers and mastics, the author scratched the iron with electrodes to better attach the protective layers to the metal.
All parts requiring turning were given to a person who is professionally engaged in turning business.
Ground clearance on the front boat is 44 centimeters, and 47 centimeters on the rear.
On the front boat 44 cm, on the rear 47.
The cross-country vehicle on bumpers is four meters long 80 centimeters long. The mass of the all-terrain vehicle turned out to be about a ton.
A metal unit was used to clad the boat structures of all-terrain vehicle frames.
The first breakdown of the all-terrain vehicle was as follows: the washer of the power steering rod was bent, but the breakage was eliminated in just 5 minutes and the tests of the all-terrain vehicle continued. The transmission brake was also tested, which proved to be excellent.
Here is a photograph of the driver’s workplace, the passenger seat was dismantled for a better view of the main structures of this part of the all-terrain vehicle, but the floor remains to be completed:
For the first time, the all-terrain vehicle sat on the belly, the boat structure protects the internal parts of the transmission, so such things are not terrible for the all-terrain vehicle.
And in the next photo you can see the engine as well as a home-made backstage. the design feature of this backstage is that it does not require additional mechanisms and time to install it and the mounts under it took only about an hour. That is, the design is lightweight and reliable.
For transportation of the all-terrain vehicle over long distances, a special trailer. Below you can see photos of the trailer itself, as well as how the all-terrain vehicle is attached and transported:
Wheels of the vi-3 perform quite well both in dirt and on a flat surface. the rubber is tough enough not to wear out quickly, but not so much as not to have grip on a hard surface. The main plus of such tires is its versatility. Another excellent quality of such rubber is its elasticity. due to which punctures are extremely rare. The author tries to keep the pressure at about 0.2 for these wheels. in the future, the author is considering installing swap over bridges, but is still not very familiar with such structures. engine power is enough for the all-terrain vehicle to move normally with five passengers carrying luggage.
Although the author does not exclude the possibility of changing pairs to 5.125 due to the lack of demand for the fourth overdrive on an all-terrain vehicle, as it never hurts to reduce the minimum speed for an all-terrain vehicle.
