For a Bus I call it "Short Wheelbase" :flipoff2:

Jason M
03-21-2002, 02:51 PM
I think it needs a bit larger tires.. That breakover angle is gonna kill ya.

But pretty friggin cool if you ask me.

Imagine rolling with 15 people in the car :D

cool, but for it to be in perspective you really need to run some Michelin 53s

what is the wheelbase measuerment on that thing? like 200"???

Can you say is "High Center"!
I'm gonna have to do it, but why would something like this be built....Originality?Because you can? or what?:skull:

yurtle
03-21-2002, 03:12 PM
Loves it madly. I just bought an old Toyota, stripping it down right now and trying to fit 3-across seats behind the fronts.

Considering the amount of frame twist I see in longbed trucks on the trail, there is going to be a high torsion load between the front and middle hoop. Is that a factor to you?


Keep us posted.

How 'bout throwing an other axle in the middle? With a open diff it might steer normal. For somthing this huge why not 3 rockwell's, the front & rear steering and middle non-steering. All with 53's, it would be like having two jeeps hooked together with one axle missing. :vader2:

Mr. Camo, what you've just made is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever seen. At no point in your rambling, incoherent design were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this board this is now dumber for having seen it. The ARCA judges award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

might just be a lil jealousy speaking consider my $hit don't even run yet.... :flipoff2: :flipoff2:
:D

jefe
03-21-2002, 09:31 PM
It's a great idea machine. My only querrie is how are you going to get it to the trailhead? Flat tow? On a 3 axle gooseneck 5th wheel? You certainly won't be driving it there, at least not in the daytime. 8<)

boom boom noises (tunes) would help get it

bigassed cup holders.......its a liability waiting to happen, the break over angle is SHOCKING, the seats look uncomfortable and vinyl, AND i badly want to have a go in it!!! shotgun after chief!

seriously though, i know you guys are masters of getting junk that shouldn't be within 100 feet of a public roadway street legal. just make sure you dont have seating for 15 people, they will make you get a class B license :D :D

MUST be able to find a bumper sticker that makes a reference to, "when the guys who rode the short bus to school actually GRADUATE!"

Something to that effect stuck to the front end somewhere would definitely be a crawning touch to the yellow tubing and those nostalgic ugly green seats.

Camo,

Were you at Pismo last weekend (President's Weekend)? My wife and I were walking out yellow labs in the dunes and we saw the BUS at one of the bathrooms and we just laughed our asses off. That thing looks sweet in person.

A Camo 60 is worth the $$ for their strength and weight advantage over Rockwell axles. Much stronger and hundreds of pounds lighter.

for a big old cruiser like the rubibus don't see the camo 60 being a reasonable option over rockwells

Wilson

Probably not for the rubibus, but I think the dude was making a much more general comparison than that. Simply put, the two axles are not comparable in strength.

BJ On Roids
02-25-2003, 10:14 PM
the bling camo 60 would have to be many times stronger than a rockwell

anyways:
rubibus with rockwells and 53" = cool

and one more thing

FOR THE PRICE you cant beat a rockwell, was what I was trying to say, the camo 60 is stronger but I dont see droping 20 grand into a giat party mobile:flipoff2:

spy pics are in of the Rubibus, evidently they brought the Rubibus to the hills of northern TN for some secret testing. Note tarp covering what sources believe is an all-out torque monster of a Pinto motor:

If i might offer some constructive criticism:

The motor looks a little small, perhaps a Merlin V12, from a jet fighter.

The colour scheme is a little funny, the bright pink, needs to be on ALL surfaces, no intermingled with rust splotches!

The 53" do indeed look small!
