Final Assembly - Tracked Amphibious Vehicle Build Ep. 24

NEW VIDEO: https://youtu.be/4GaiXxP4z3A
In this episode I'm starting the final assembly on my homemade tracked amphibious vehicle. I'm fabricating a new hood scoop for the otherwise vulnerable to elements engine bay cooling fan, making the engine and gearbox frame lighter and slightly modifying it to make the CVT belt tensioning easier. I'm also adding a car alternator with a custom belt tensioning system to make the charging system cope with two 12 V winches and all the lights on board. Cleaning and painting the differential brake steering unit without the side brakes on, installing the engine and the gearbox and starting to button up the rest of the vehicle. In the next episode we will ride this thing! Stay tuned!
