strange home-built rockkrawler

Recommended Posts

while running predator earlier this year, this strange beast came along...

 

P1010792.JPG

 

- all the body was aluminum

 

- he had air bags on all 4 corners and could independantly raise/lower each corner with a little control pad he had mounted near the wheel

 

- he could also change the entire wheelbase with hydraulic rams from 100" to 120"

 

i watched him crawl up a waterfall jiggling his little switches back and forth for like 10 minutes... then a really well built TJ did the same waterfall in like a minute with some finesse and some brute force. watching this thing reminded me of a joke about an engineer trying to have sex... making drawings and taking measurements instead of just plowing through!
