Did a few drawings today: Hopefully the engine fit`s between the tracks like it`s shown here. If not, i need some new ideas... Found the first mistake. The joint should look like this:

No, it'll use a hydraulic ram between both cars to tilt them. I'm possibly going to weld the differentials if needed...

Started with the first track today: Mockup: Dimension. The OSB equals the second track: This would be the driveshaft angle with the engine in the rear like i wanted it to build. Ok, so the engine goes in the front. Problem is that i won`t see anything with that setup: So i...

So we have been at austria for our new years trip. The car was parked on the highest point we could get because of the snow. Then they said there would be a snowstorm coming up and we decided to get the car down. But for whatever reason it decided not to start again. So i cleaned the spark plugs...

Hi guys, every winter we do some trips to our house in austria. There`s about 5-8feet of snow, so it`s impossible to reach it with a 4x4 (at least with the ones we can built in germany). So i was looking for a snowmobile, but i didn`t like the prices and the fact that i only can use it in the...

Will be gone by tuesday... Can't wait for it...

There's a LT 4x4 parked on my way to work, those are just awesome rides...

Wow, you must have spent a whole year polishing that thing. Any more pics of it?

Thanks guys... Not sure when the next event is, but i`ll make sure to let you know... Next thing will be a temporary front skid plate for our snow wheeling trip to austria...

Thanks. The hinge is holding up great so far, time will tell...

Thanks. We can buy POR-15 here in germany, but i prefer a paint called "Brantho Korrux: 3in1". It`s similar to POR15 but the painting surface doesn`t have to be that clean. It`s a great product and works really well... Hi, yes i`m planning on cutting all that stuff away and weld the new bumper...

A quick paint sketch:

While driving offroad, i noticed how bad the approach angle is. I landed hard on the front bumper a few times, and also ripped the license plate off... So i started with a new front bumper, to improve the approach angle a lot. Here is it with the stock bumper: This is how i want it: Then...

Here are two videos of the stockcar race: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMASv512TuM http://foppdiewutz.de/sng3-stockcar.secure

This was a long weekend... I picked up my new shocks on friday at lunch. At about 5pm i started lifting the van: The lift was finished at about 11pm. Then we packed some stuff together, and catched about 3hours of sleep, before we started our trip to a german offroad event...

Yes and yes. There will be a swing out, that carries the spare, two jerry cans, the hilift and a shovel. Also a removable mount for my skies... And yes, i`ll convert it to run on propane. I`ll get the kit on saturday...

Got the bumper installed today:

Fabricated a rear bumper this afternoon. Mock up: Welded and cleaned up: Painted: There`s an offroad event coming up this weekend, that`s why i`m going that crazy with building all that stuff that fast. I`ll also get a propane kit at the event...

First i painted the sides today: It came out "good from far but far from good "... Then it was time to remove the rear bumper. I didn`t need to remove a single bolt, i just ripped it off: We placed bets on how much is left of the support. Well, i won, because i said nothing is left...

Almost finished the cabinet today: Upper mount: The bed still folds up: I need a good idea for securing my clothes in the cabinet while driving. Don`t like the elastic strap solution...
