All Terrain Track Chair part 8 of final assembly
It finally moves under its own power, and just a "few" items left. https://youtu.be/sR6AlNcYAos Last edited by Kent_323is; 03-23-2021 at 05:29 PM. Reason: embedded video

Thanks for the compliments guys!
It's been a long journey to get to this point. Here's a link to more details about the project with specs and description. http://kustomsbykent.com/projects/al...ck-chair-attc/ The client is paralyzed from the armpits down, and not much muscle strength in his arms, and limited hand/finger function, so controls are highly customized to fit his needs.

I'm impressed. That is a beautiful job you have done. I'm sure there were moments of "why did I get myself into this" but you made it work well.
I have to ask why the winch is on the side of the machine?

I'd like to have a stripped down version just to get around rough areas. I don't need the PTO (the chain drive there looked a bit like a weak link), and no need for a lot of the finer controls......just a higher clearance & rubber tracks for exploring....basically a fun machine.
