This Lateral Traction Loss Upgrade TRANSFORMS Your DIY Motion Sim!

🔥 Building a proper lateral traction loss axis is one of the biggest upgrades you can make to a DIY motion simulator — and in this episode, I take you step‑by‑step through the exact parts, measurements, and fabrication needed to build a rock‑solid traction loss axle for the Dr ADHD rig.

We start with the core materials:

40mm × 40mm × 3mm × 800mm RHS box steel

4× heavy‑duty bearing‑insert castor wheels

1× 280kg‑rated pivot castor

5mm thick flat steel plates

From there, I show you how to measure, mark, cut, and drill everything you need to create a set of precision joining plates. These plates allow the traction loss axle to bolt cleanly to the mid frame — and more importantly, give you fine‑tuned height adjustment so the axle sits perfectly level and aligned.

You’ll see exactly how to:

Measure and design the adjustable joining plates

Mark and drill both plates so they act as perfect stencils

Ensure every adjustment hole lines up with absolute accuracy

Prep the steel for drilling and assembly

Locate and mount the plates to the mid frame with confidence

If you’re building your own DIY motion simulator or upgrading your traction loss system, this guide gives you the clarity and precision you need to get it right the first time.
