The drive shaft issue is called plunge. It's a thing when on race cars when you try to increase camber but it usually drives the end of the shaft into the diff and breaks mounts.

This is the kinda channel you give a like before you start watching 👍

You need to put upgraded bits to take up the power of the R1 otherwise they'll keep breaking. If i'm not mistaken there's a modern kit made from billet that you can swap in old Buggies. I saw something when someone was restoring an old dune buggy on Discovery.

@@AZBADBOYz YT dislikes links in comments and they ban the comment if you post stuff (at least that's been my experience). As @ephjay bellow said, it's likely a Porsche CV (there's even a picture of the different types of CV stacked side by side, and you can see the beef between what they have and what should be). A quick google shows plenty of people upgrading their bugs with it and even a handful of buggies. So that's possibly the same thing they used in the show. Looking even further into it, showed me the time the first posts about it on forums match the time i remember watching that show on TV, back when i still used one.

I'd say shortening the length of the arms and making the shafts thicker would be a better option than having the high center of gravity it has now and it seems like the steering angles aren't right because its sliding on the turns.... I'd like to see what this would be capable of w/ trailing arm suspension on the rear, that would look really cool since it's all wide open back there. 👍

99% of the time you snap a shaft it is at the end of the spline inside of the joint. If you make the shaft larger but keep the same joints you then end up with a more concentrated stress point at the spline runout. The spline diameter is dependent on the joint so no matter how big you make the shaft the dimensions of your original failure point remains the same. @10:44 you can see that the spline pitch dia is roughly the same diameter as the rest of the bar so going any bigger would just be adding rotational mass if not negatively impacting the strength. When designing some halfshafts for the overseas Asian market we were actually putting some healthy undercuts in the middle of the shaft to comply with crash test safety guidelines and in testing we would still break at the larger diameter end of spline. Hope this wasn't to much. I enjoy learning stuff on here and thought I would extend some knowledge I have learned from designing these things for 8 years.

17:22 This is the most premium hair-do of all time 😂😂😂😂

What a find, it's properly fast on the sketchy side lol. Once you resolve the axles etc, you could run slightly taller tires and lower the suspension by about the same height the taller tires increased rideheight. You'll keep the same rideheight while lowering the CG and the risk for rollovers and it should help with cornering in general with greater grip and stability making it more fun to toss around. It would also help a bit with the sketchy steering (though you pointed to it needing work) since larger wheels/tires tend to slow down and soften steering response a bit though they may increase steering effort at higher speeds.

The 60yr old cvs held on longer than the original now that's true workmanship

That’s really nicely done. Super impressed.

I believe this has potential to be the best build on this channel ! And obviously, that’s saying alot! I know these boyz are going to take this to an insane level!!!!

A couple months to dial it in before it's time to put skis and Traxx on it.. :) This was an Awesome find guys!

Keep that brilliant video's coming boys

If you kill more CV's see if you can find softer clutch springs to drop the shock torque on them from landing jumps etc. Could also help to squat the suspension more so the CV's are straighter. I'd use an agressive dual-rate spring setup so it's super soft on droop and stiffens up a ton at ride-height. This will also help with body roll.

I loved every minute of this video. If you going to drive that's the way you supposed to drive ! The next time y'all drive that's the way you drive! Whoa!

I had the same CV joints problem with my 16valve swapped 84 Scirocco. It was slammed, so I raised the suspension 1" and replaced the CV joints and axles with 944, of course it's a little more involved than described but the 944 units are good for 300hp.

It’s great to see Sam again. 🙏🏽

Nice find guys!!! This is gonna be an insane project. I’m still excited to see the upgrades for the diesel limo and the fire truck!!!

I'm thinking about those big paddle tires and how much more grip they will have. If it broke two drive shafts with the much smaller, and less grippy, wheels, the same drive shafts are going to fail the first time you floor the throttle. It needs stronger drive shafts before you go to the dunes.

Love your videos watched most of them in 2weeks:) ❤ keep it up :)

Amazing toy guys.....really gets with the program!!

Love the vids guys!

You’re theory on the axle length sounds spot on, was my first thought when it popped the axle immediately after it hit some bumps on the dirt.

"They don't post times because this is a TV show!" 🤣

That thing is so insane, its awesome. Y'all should bring it down to the lake of the Ozarks, we have a couple of offroad parks that opened up in the past year. That thing would slay the hill climbs.

I thought I saw you guys at the drag races in Eagle ID. I was on my way out on Saturday and didn't think of it until I passed ya. I got to the car and thought "that looked like Ethan and Will." Love the content, jeep it up guys!

I'd love to see your shopping cart at the drag strip lol. Imagine the launches with 4 rear wheels!

You guys always build and find the coolest stuff! Would love to have Ethan put a Hayabusa motor in my suzuki samurai!

I was definitely thinking with all that travel on the rear when it hits after jumps its causing it to bind up and with to fast of forward motion it just has no choice but to snap if possible maybe set the suspension up with some bump stops to so it can't fully extend or fully bottom out i would belive it should be a lot happier plus with alitte bit lower center of gravity will help with the front wheels not coming of the ground so easy i mean yeah it looks cool up high but is it suffice its boarder line a death trap 2 say the least plus it will help with rolling over as well means mo speed 🤨

u guys are the best never get tired of anything your doing you guys are so inspiring god bless you guys keep up the awesome work ❤❤

My boy was freakin out when he saw this. I built that cart about 18-20 years ago. This was the second build. The first was a little bigger. Built them forr the dunes. Modeled it off my buckshot x-5. So crazy to see that it still around and ripping.

Nice... I'd lower the seats for a better center of gravity too, since there's no batteries under there now... if possible, I don't know what clearance is there either... 😊

Oh hell yeah!! You guys are playing one of my favorite little disc golf courses in Idaho!

This thing is sick love how you was easy on it in the neighborhood and as soon as you get it home full send 😂 love all yalls content

I feel like the chain ate through the chain tensioner because its a stationary tensioner. If it was spring loaded it wouldnt have as much tension on it to where it chews through it. For sure need to see about a better braking situation in case you lose the axles for some reason. Awesome purchase though! Cant wait to see the improvements on it!

This is one of my favorite purchases you guys ha e made

vw cv's are pretty tough, but they fail when the are stretched or compressed. I am glad you identified that @19:45! clever work around with the PVc. I hope that helps. Sure bears a total rear geometry redesign.

love the lady trying to turn the wheels with her foot hahaha

Love the channel guys, for the tensioner, I’ve machined small front bike sprockets and put bearings in the centre to use them as tensioner rollers for karts, Has to be something beefy as nylon or skateboard wheels just don’t last. Love the buggy though and everything else you mad bunch create 😂

You guys have some amazing toys. But that’s by far the nicest one you guys own now

Can't wait to see you throw it on tracks this winter

can use a block of wood or poly too as the tensioner, most combines use wood for some tensioners and works like a charm but eats up the chain, or jut get a sprocket that fits, plenty of space for modifying

Looking forward to the follow up video with that crazy bike build Ethan nearly finished the rear swing arm for last episode.

That thing is so awesome. I love it. I want one.

Now that looks fun, I really recomend front brakes, I would also build a reverse system from a starter motor one way bearing on the motor and revise the chain drive as the belt tensioner will last less time than skateboard wheel does, maybe a bearing not sure maybe just a slider would be better similar to dirt bikes in the 80's used.

Ok, I definitely need to finish mine now!!!! 🤪

you guys seem to be very happy, congrats on the youtube success.

Petition to let will take the shopping cart to the drag strip

I need more of this

Bros got matching bro uniforms on....That thing is pretty bad ass though.

I bought a gear box to slow down the steering on my hopped up golf cart. It goes in line on the steering shart. One direction it speeds up the steering and if you flip it over, it slows it down. My cart doesn't have anywhere near your cart's power or suspension travel, but slowing down the steering ratio really made it feel more stable.
