ways to lift a fourwheeler

why do people want to lift there atvs .Thay want to because thy can say there's is bigger and it can go through more teran and wont get stuck ase bad. you can lift one by making your own and our buying one to bolt on your atv but if your atv is to old you have to make it your self and that can be hard but you can do it because if you set your mind to it it will get done. you can lift it by welding pipe together into notches to put them together you can make noches by drilling a hole in the very end with the bit half out and half in. but it is very hard to do if you dont have the tools. http://www.ehow.com/how_4728275_make-custom-atv-trailers.html

All it took was a flash of the thumb throttle, a quick look at the bolt pattern on the front hubs, the location of the transmission belt housing and the sound of that thumping V-twin and I knew Mini Rip was based on the 2009 Polaris Sportsman 850 XP!After a few more runs to get used to the steering, I hit the swamp. This is where the true extreme capabilities of Mini Rip began to reveal its dominant abilities.

I chose this topic because these people build the things i like the most and enjoy watching them on descovery and larning how to build more things and build better. Whene i first sawe this thing  i thout it would noy evean turn and it would be a peace of junk. but whene thay started riding it around i saw it was very manoverable and moved realy fast but it looks like it would not be safe on roll overs becuse it has no protection over the head like a roll bar so you will not get hurt. othere than that it looks like it could be perty fun and it also cost a lot of money.

ways to build custom atvs

1 I found out how to make the pipe not brake buy heating it up and thin binding it.

2 I also saw how to mount the motor to the frame you have to put the motor in place first thin mount the brackets that you made your self and you do that buy drilling a hole that the motor bolts will fit really tight into then you have to bid it to make it  fit thin weld it.

3 I found out that you want to paint the ATV not just for looks but to keep it from rusting and routing away from the water.

4 Another thing you can do is build your roll cage which is the part that gos over your head to keep it from getting smashed on the ground when you flip and helps  you feel more protected.

5 One project that I am working on is a racing lawnmower the way that i found out how to make it go faster is to flip the pulleys around because the pulley that is on the mower axle is really big but the one on the motor is small it is made that way so it wont go to fast and it wont burn the axle up because the axle is just a bunch of gears that shift when you let tension off the belt.

welcom to my blog

The reason for my blog is because I have lived my life with atv’s . I grew up ridding atvs and they are a big part of my life. They are a big part of my life because I’ve broken my body parts and I have also seen people I knew die on them that is part of the reason I build them because I know how they ride and are more carful than most people are on them but still have a good time. I also build them because I like to and have fun doing it. What you can expect to learn on this blog is how you should build them the right way and not rig something up that might hurt you. One way to do that is putting the right size pipe to use so it won’t bend all up from the power of the motor and still ride. Then there is stronger pipe or there is lighter pipe it depends on wait you are doing and how you ride most of the time. I will also show you how to make the atv before you start it like build the atv around the tires and the motor. You could also know that there is pipe and there is steal to use because pipe bends a whole lot more easer than steal does and you should use steal over pipe. There is a lot of reason I like building atvs because I love them and I have been around them my hole life and love to ride them.
