Project C1-4x6

Recommended Posts

Hi all after seeing many pictures of stretched Horses and brilliantly modified machines to make them more versatile etc such as Marks Brilliant 4x4 conversion on his C101 (check his build thread ) and his latest creation project bendy , then there's Ian with his awesome Raider 6x6 which will go anywhere see the you tube videos ! And the Showman ( Chris) with Trac horse which is another very good mod ! Any way back to my idea I've just very recently took delivery of a 4 speed transmission thanks Ian - Mark and my plan is to attach this behind my 8 speed transmission on my C141 donor tractor and then I will connect the transmissions together so I have 4 wheel drive on the rear of the tractor ! Which I will connect via a chain drive more about that later he's my first nights work enjoy!

Well after having a sleepless night due to Mark mentioning articulation and Chris mention having a rear lift axle I decided to do a little redesigning and I've now made the rear axle articulate , I still got loads of work to do on this but I think I going in the right direction with it . I'm just making spreader plates which will be facing each other on the pivot point which will have grease between the. Similar to fith wheel coupling on a lorry to help it articulate and spread the load . Here is what I've done so far !
