Electric Geo Tracker Ep. 2 - Introduction of Vehicle & Plans

[@rodneyrichardson8286]

Keep me up on this I have a Suzuki sidekick that I've been rolling this conversion in my head for a few months

[@EricSmith-mh9ex]

Oh man, would love to have you do mine later. Awesome!

[@yongcabrera7185]

Exciting! Definitely following this build, awesome video man!

[@ElecTrackProjects]

Thank you!

[@MrHankRHill]

Great video man, I appreciate all of the details as to you why you chose this build and how you plan to go about it. Can't wait to see how it turns out! By the way would you mind if I share your video to a Geo Tracker/Suzuki Sidekick facebook page? They'll love your build and hopefully it brings you more views and subscribers.

[@ElecTrackProjects]

Thank you for the feedback! And yes, absolutely!

Trackers and Metros are perfect for electric conversions, i prefer 2WD trackers, you can strip the entire drivetrain and hook the electric motor directly to the diferential...

Needs more views!

[@ElecTrackProjects]

Honestly, I'm doing this so I have somewhere that motivates me to make quality content so that one day my kids can see what I do, not so much for the views :)

[@FelipeMartinez-ng6ou]

I need one kit for my tracked 92 information please

[@rvilsker]

why there is no finished car project vide?

[@ElecTrackProjects]

I've already driven the car but life has been hectic and I haven't gotten around to editing the hours of footage(3 separate videos). Thanks for your patience!

Hi Do you have a Kit or Manual, course I can follow to convert my geo tracker?

[@ElecTrackProjects]

Hello, I do not have a kit(most of the materials and parts I used for this project are salvaged from other platforms/machines). Truthfully said, and I do mention this in several videos in the series, I am experimenting with how cheap I can build this. Therefore, there is quite a lot of trial-and-error and multiple iterations of designs. I have already gotten the Tracker to drive, I just haven't had the time to edit the videos. Because you asked, I will try to create some sort of simplified guide on how to do this. But overall you can simplify this whole build to several portions. You obviously need the Tracker, which you have. You'll need a motor and motor-transmission adapter(you can see how I fabricated that on my other videos). Additionally, you'll need a motor controller that can mesh with your motor(DC/BLDC/AC?). Finally, you'll need a battery/battery management system. Because there are so many options and paths you can take out in the market/world along with part/material availability, it's hard to make a comprehensive, one-size-fits-all guide. But if you break down the whole project into distinct parts, it'll seem more manageable. I'll try to revisit this comment in another video that can address your question. Thanks for watching by the way!
