Max’s Roxor Build

Welded up. Still just a start but good enough to go wheeling in the morning.

Dude that is bad f'n ass!!
 
I have read this front to back multiple times.
The build just keeps getting better and better.
You must be getting close to Roxor Perfection.

Remember that rear end repair I did a while back with the home made bearing shim....... well something went BOOM over the weekend in a wide open 3rd gear hill climb. I’m excited to see how bad it failed!

I’m not too worried about it since it was already broken and “bandaided” back together. That’s the glory of the drop out third member differentials. Blow it up and swap it out. I already have the new one built and ready to drop in. I’ve been carrying it around in the trailer for a month waiting for this one to let go.

It made a pretty spectacular sound when it went. We will see!

Lol a spectacular sound is hearing fireworks on the Forth of July, a rear end blowing up sounds expensive and temporarily depressing.
 
Took a break from working on the Roxor this week. Decided to make a big move. I’m getting more and more request for custom work so I decided to finally pull the trigger on building a shop.

I have some awesome friends that have all lent a hand to get this far. I’m very thankful.

That's awesome buddy. Best of luck moving forward!
 
Congratulations Max, your YouTube videos are pretty awesome.
 
Worked on the cage for a few hours this weekend. It’s getting close to what I had in mind. I still need to tie the A,B, and C pillars together down low and ad a few triangles to the roof. Once I’ll done I’ll go back through and gusset all of the major nodes.

There are a few general rules to fallow when building cages. No dead nodes meaning a tube termination without support for 2 differ directions. Every major bend should be treated as a node and supported 3 ways. You should add as many triangles as possible. ITS ALL ABOUT THE TRIANGLES.
