Journey to the Baja 1000 - Episode 9 - Building the Upper A-Arms

On this episode of the Journey to the Baja 1000 we show you how we plan, design and fabricate the upper A-Arms of the J10 offroad truck using Fusion 360 and the Langmuir Systems CrossFire Pro.

Hello and welcome to the NTD Racing Channel. My name is Dave. I'm your average engineer with not so average ambitions. I'm looking to fulfill one of my life goals which is to build an amazing off road race truck, take it 95 miles south to Ensenada, Mexico and compete in the world's most prestigious off road race. You're watching "The Journey to the Baja 1000".
