Monster Truck chassis modification Part 1

In this video, Tony takes you through the steps. He and Georgina have taken to improve Swamp Thing 4x4's monster truck chassis by shorting it and also adding extra braces to make it have more triangulations to make it live longer.

Nice video. Thanks for showing the tube notcher, template, and bender. What type of steel are the tubes made from?

[@swampthing4x4]

Thank you for your comment The Steel we use in the Monster Truck is CDS which is cold drawn Steel The thickness is 3.2 mm and we use 2 inch and inch and a quarter tubes

Great video I think u have wasted your time cuz front was strong. U could of made the frame holding body stronger but obviously ur choice

[@swampthing4x4]

If you roll the truck over you want it to bend the part that holds all the bodywork and not bend the chassis that’s why you do not make it as strong

[@tomkirkham2007]

Fair point
