[@RobertPerrigoOkiechopper]

That weld/jig table is one of my favorite shop tools you have. In my shop days I just had 1/2" thick table top & bench. All our shop tables and workbenches we custom made to fit our needs in the Layout dept. Back then, you name it, we laid out something on it no matter what shape you had.

Just quicker and easier.

[@Fahrenheit_Motorsports]

Sorry to ask questions on this build after 6 months. I checked the links in the description and I didn’t get a clear answer. Can someone confirm if this is what happened on the rear axle please. Live Axle> 4” hubs>Adapters>Larger Wheel and Tire (ATV or UTV I assume) I’m new to this world and I’m actually attempting the same thing but I’m finding limits to the hubs and wheels available until I stumbled across your channel. You are making things look easy and using much larger sized wheel and tire combos then I’m finding on the ol interwebs. Any guidance you can provide would be much appreciated. Thanks from a new subscriber!

[@tk1087]

Please buy a Mini Jeep from Ice Bear or Massimo! We want to see some cool upgrades.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Too expensive. Would love to build something like that though.

[@charlesweldon3026]

How can I get a material list of all parts used on the live axel setup including carrier bearing?

[@KWhite75]

The tubing that you use to build your frames, swing arms etc. what size is the square tubing for swing arms and what size is the round tubing for front ends?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

1" tube for a arms with 1/8" thick walls and 1" x 2" rectangular tubing with 1/8" thick walls

[@jakeminogue]

5 bearings seems like a good idea, more bearings equal more better? but thats not the case, you end up with over constraint of the shaft. in this application you can't make accurate and rigid alignment of the bearings, so the shaft gets bent every time it rotates (this on a small scale and cant be seen by eye) this leads to bearing failure from cyclical over loading and fatigue fractures in shafts. might not see the effects in something like this that wont be used much, but in a continuous running industrial application, this would be a big problem. just size the shaft and two bearings appropriately for the job, more bearings dont make up for cheap parts. thanks for listening to my TED talk.

[@a.benaway_racing]

how are you liking that ever last welder?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I love it. Never has let me down.

[@ah617006]

It seems to me that using lock collars to hold the hubs on is just not a great idea. I guess it typically doesn’t see too much of a load on the side of the tire though to have to worry about them coming off. Not criticizing just wondering if that would ever be an issue.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I have never had a problem with it. Race carts even use them.

[@XxPureHashxX]

Is there a brake hose that is possible longer that 72” i have the same brake kit but hoses arent as long as i need it to be

[@XxPureHashxX]

Carson Hendee i was trying to find this out, do you kno of any lines that connect in such way or ? Anything that may fit these brakes shown in the video ?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

You can use two connected together. Go in to a auto parts store and tell them you need to hook two together. They should have some fittings

[@XxPureHashxX]

Red Beard's Garage hell yea i appreciate it, btw love the channel! Really inspiring

[@bdon42]

Did y’all quit building the golf cart with the 625cc motor haven’t seen another video sense y’all sent it to sand blast and powder coat. Hope you haven’t gave up on that build.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

No we just have wanted to get it sandblasted and powder coating done and the sandblaster has been busy.

[@danyrahim9042]

Nice beard

[@bretmontgomery7855]

Is that 1x2x1/4 square tubing or another size

[@randallbaker9055]

1x2x1/8"

[@AdversityZone]

first jump will bend the axle

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I will get money that axle will never bend. Trust me we have went through a lot of r and d to come up with this design.

[@AdversityZone]

@@RedBeardsGarage R&D yep Redbull & Doritos chips no way it took you more than 5 min to draw that up unless your not that good at your job not to mention you started with an axle that was a bit bent 4:49 look at the lower part as he turns it the outside 2 bearings are doing almost nothing at all the way you have them mounted on that light metal strapping instead of making the the 2 outside 1"x2"out wider or adding another set of 1"x2" to mount them on there are at lest 4 changes i would have made to how you designed / built that unit PS:- i was building this stuff before you where born
