Buggy refers to this type of transport that always attracts attention. Dicname, high technical characteristics, the ability to easily overcome obstacles - all this is characteristic of this vehicle. There are always many wishing to ride it, but not everyone knows that Buggy can be made independently. It is enough to show technical smelting, stocking the details and give a little time.
Excursion in history
Translated from the English language "Buggy" means "bug". The design is really reminiscent of the beetle: massive wheels, there are no parts for the carrier body, an open chassis. These characteristics allow Buggy to conquer off-road and even sandy mounds - dunes.
For the first time, such transport appeared in the United States, a little later - in the UK. The models really liked farmers and those who live in difficult places (deserts, on the snow-covered territories, in the swampy terrain).
Sometimes buggy I use how a full-fledged SUV. It fully copes with its functions. The advantage is also the fact that the car is unpretentious, will last long, it can be constructed independently from the remedies. These advantages appreciated even the military who use buggy for their own purposes.
Project development principles
Before you start creating your own buggy, you need to do the design of the model. As a basis, you can take the old Soviet car.
So that everything happens as accurately as possible, it is necessary to develop drawings. A small deviation is allowed from them, because it is impossible to withstand all parameters in the garage conditions. This can be done only within the plant.
If there are relevant engineering knowledge baggage, then you can develop drawings on your own. If there are no such skills, you can borrow information on the Internet. The World Wide Web can offer a lot of different developments to create a buggy machine. It is important to choose the drawing that will be relevant based on the available materials.
The basis of such transport - metal pipes that must create a solid construction. The correct calculation will allow you to get the drawing.
Construction of carcass
The development of buggy begins with the construction of a frame - the base, which will be supplemented with other elements. A simple iron profile to create a stable design. Such a pipe will cost cheaper than other similar items.
The advantage of such a profile is that it will withstand an impressive load created by the motor, the rest of the details, the mass of the driver and the passenger. In this case, it is available and easy to install.
At this stage, you should choose a high-quality suspension. It does not have to be new. You can buy a suspension from the car VAZ, which was already in use. The main thing is its quality and ability to last for a long time.
Some parts will have to do it yourself, because it is very difficult to choose them. To do this, contact the experienced current, which will make the appropriate detail on the basis of calculations.
It can be attributed to elements that require self-refinement.
- "Ears" to install blocks;
- fastening ball support at the bottom;
- the sleeve for adjusting the collapse.
The last element is best welded to the upper lever, then the design will be further enhanced and protected. Shock absorbers worth using paired.
The rear suspension can also be made on the basis of the suspension from the VAZ. Special attention should be paid to the wheels: they should be powerful, high-quality and have excellent braking force. If possible, you can buy more expensive foreign brands. If the budget is limited, then the wheels from the same VAZ are also suitable. The only thing - Tokar will have to additionally order sleeves for these wheels and disc brakes.
Selection and installation of the engine
The subsequent stage will be the installation of the engine. It can also be borrowed from one of the models of the VAZ car. Attachments for such an option must be perfect for buggy. If any inaccuracies arise, the file will help to fix them.
The generator is also better to establish from such a car model. If you wish, you can purchase more expensive options if it allows the budget.
Also at this stage it is necessary to work in the development of a special chair in the Buggy Salon. It has an interesting shape of a bucket, and a simple seat with a car in this case will not fit.
It is best to take a drawing on the Internet and make it yourself. For this, metal will be required with a format of 8 mm. From above, you need to wake to attach a soft bitten to sit comfortably.
Welding and tank installation
Now it's time to cook the bottom. To do this, purchase sheet metal, 0.8 mm thick.
Some buggia are designed without the bottom, the open type of construction is taken in their foundation. But it is better when transport has additional protection. So he will serve longer.
When installing the bottoms in priority - point welding. The use of self-tapping screws can lead to the fact that the design over time is overwhelmed.
As a tank, you can use the usual five-liter canister. To give her a more presentable species, it is possible to add it aesthetic hatch, sensors and other elements.
Buggy is able to surprise many: it develops speed up to 150 km / h, it is conveniently located, it easily overcomes the barriers on its path. Working out this transport yourself, it is important to adhere to all norms and rules. The safety of the driver, passenger and other road users depends on this.
