multiple rear drive axles
« on: October 13, 2009, 08:53:34 PM »
Has anybody ever build a  tandem axle (rear drive wheels) lakester or liner? If so, was it successful?
We are hurting for traction and I thought this might help.

You might want to contact John. He has real experience in doing it.

John Bjorkman built and ran a duel axle lakester. Chain driven. Vehicle was at speed week. I don't know who the new owner is.

  Rob, a company named Rivers Carbon tech can get you a bunch of traction with very little drag.
