Do-it-yourself car tackle drawings

Roll-up trailer

Good day to all. There was a need to transport buggies off public roads. As an option, they offer a similar weight. But I’m not even in the know: should it be registered or not. There are options with PTS (self-assembled), without PTS. Please tell me if it’s worth the bother. Or is it easier to carry it in a truck?

Special greetings to Defavod! You'll love it!!

Hello! Thank you. If you don’t register? If you cook it yourself or are ready to buy it, then what sanctions await you? A fine or parking?

And another question: I roll one axle into the truck, fix it tightly so that it does not dangle with slings, the second axle rides on asphalt. This, as I understand it, is according to traffic rules? Or am I completely misunderstood and it’s time to throw my rights into the river?

Well, one more thing: If you screw a channel to the frame and make a platform under it to fix the axle (similar to how bicycles are attached to the back of a car)... is this a change in the design of the vehicle or not? Well, the principle is the same as in the photo, only attached to the frame and without wheels.

Or is it even possible to register a buggy with Technical Supervision? It’s completely self-assembled on a frame welded from pipes. There are only docks for the engine and nothing else.

Denis, well, hello to you, of course, as well as to Gray 777. Please tell me, in simple language, not legal (I’m starting to get confused in the letters in legal), what’s the easiest way to deal with this bullshit?? In terms of the road to the forest and back.. When in the forest I am less interested. Thank you in advance

Well, one more thing: If you screw a channel to the frame and make a platform under it to fix the axle (similar to how bicycles are attached to the back of a car)... is this a change in the design of the vehicle or not?

You can get PSM for a buggy if you certify it for compliance with the Technical Regulations on the safety of self-propelled vehicles.

Thank you! I’ll go to Technical Supervision and find out what they need for registration. For now I will carry it in the Bong. One thing is not convenient - it doesn’t fit 5 cm in width to close the sides. I have to unscrew the wheels. Or can it be transported with open sides? With a protrusion of 3 cm on each side. Drives in and out of it even without boards. AT YOUR OWN MOVE, the body is 60 cm from the ground!! You just have to put 2 pallets under the side so that it doesn’t break off when entering/exiting

I can’t tell you by law, but as a person who often carries all sorts of rubbish on trailers, I’ll share my experience: when you’re dragging something, it’s a rigid hitch and no questions arise, but when it’s hanging alone from behind, it’s like a trailer that needs to be registered, that’s how the guys explained it.

Thanks for the answer! I myself have carried everything and in every way. And in every way I haven’t carried. that it doesn’t matter (rigid coupling), and the fifth (with whom they were going to drive it to the village) replied that he himself didn’t know whether it was possible or not. If there had been a passage via VAT, I wouldn’t have bothered. But it is necessary to drive through 2 regions. And even here, dragging around, who knows, you’ll run into someone. Something like this)))

Ps. I understand perfectly well that practice in all regions is different in our great and vast one.

And again.. Well, they stopped me, well, I’m on my way to register this trailer (unused, self-assembled, I’ve had the transmission for less than 10 days, no title, no license plates, well, I lost it, let’s say, well, I’m going to register, it doesn’t happen to anyone) ..what are the sanctions??if by law.

After all, in fact, the fact that they won’t register it for me is a different story. I’ve owned it for less than 10 days, I’m trying to register it.. How do I know that I was misled by the sellers of this miracle of technology? And it cannot be registered. ))

I just really don’t see the legal application of sanctions against me in this case. Please enlighten me if I'm wrong.

And by the way, if we’re going to develop it... well, I have a Niva, I slightly re-equipped it, well, just a little) I have a certificate of registration, I have a certificate for the engine, I have 10 days for registration (sales insurance, in theory, I don’t need it). I lost my license plate, the license plates hooligans took it off..well, why can’t I drive it according to the additional traffic regulations??registration deadlines haven’t passed yet..well, and then history repeats itself in 10 days..well, that’s just me, for the sake of fantasy.

Even if I probably asked questions to which there is no clear answer in the legal field... if you put everything together. Well, at the same time I opened a loophole with a converted car. I didn’t want to, I thought about doing everything according to the traffic rules with it. Well, what is there, use whoever understands and who needs it. I do not mind. Ps. If you don’t understand, please don’t ask me questions in a private message. I won’t answer.

23. Transportation of goods

23.1. The weight of the transported cargo and the load distribution along the axles must not exceed the values ​​​​established by the manufacturer for this vehicle.

23.2. Before starting and while driving, the driver is obliged to control the placement, fastening and condition of the load in order to avoid it falling and creating obstacles to movement.

23.3. Transportation of cargo is permitted provided that it:

does not limit the driver's visibility; does not complicate control and does not affect the stability of the vehicle; does not cover external lighting devices and reflectors, registration and identification marks, and does not interfere with the perception of hand signals

; does not create noise, does not create dust, does not pollute the road or the environment. If the condition and placement of the cargo do not meet the specified requirements, the driver is obliged to take measures to eliminate violations of the listed transportation rules or stop further movement.

23.4. A load protruding beyond the dimensions of the vehicle in front and behind by more than 1 m or from the side by more than 0.4 m from the outer edge of the side light must be marked with the “Large Load” identification signs.

is carried out in accordance with special rules
.

International road transport is carried out in accordance with the requirements for vehicles and transportation rules established by international treaties of the Russian Federation.

Transport trailers

The widespread use of semi-trailers and trailers is due to the additional convenience when transporting heavy loads. The vehicle bears only part of the load, which extends its service life. When unloading, you can save valuable time by unhooking the cart and leaving it in place, and unloading it at a convenient time. This option is convenient and is used for delivering goods between workshops of the same enterprise located at a certain distance.

All towed devices are divided into two groups:

• Special-purpose trailers allow you to take into account the needs of working with various loads, but there are quite a few universal vehicles for such work. Common types include heavy-duty semi-trailers, log trucks, panel trucks, cement trucks and other types of trailed equipment.
• General transport equipment includes flatbed, tilt and other trailers of various sizes designed for transporting heavy loads of any kind.

Varieties depending on load distribution

The designs of trailed vehicles use different steering wheel control systems in order to improve the maneuverability and speed of control of the road train.
Hitches are standard in most cases. If the trailer has an active wheel drive from the car engine, then such carriages are called active automobile trains. To drive such an active drive, a mechanical transmission is used via a coupling device or a hydraulic drive is used.

If the road train has two or more links, then the engine is located in the section at the rear. Unofficially, there is the concept of “trailer”; it is used to move cars, other equipment or oversized cargo (long or heavy).

Depending on the load distribution between the trailer and the tractor, trailers are divided into several types:

• A trailer is an independent means of transport and is connected to any vehicle using a coupling device or drawbar. A common system is the hook and loop system. With such a system, the weight of the transported cargo is transmitted through the trailer frame, which is the load-bearing frame, and the wheels are transferred to the road. The coupling of a car with a carriage is used only to create traction.
• Semi-trailers use devices with a special truck tractor, which operates using a coupling pin. The load transfers its weight to the towed supporting frame, then is distributed between the wheels of the car and the trailer itself. In this case, the hitch is used not only to create traction, but also to redistribute the load. To prevent the semi-trailer carriage from tipping over during downtime, it is equipped with folding thrust stands. A semi-trailer cannot move without a hitch to a vehicle.
• The dissolution is both a trailer and a semi-trailer and is used for transporting long loads as part of a road train formed for these purposes. In this case, the weight of the load is transferred to special-purpose cradles, which absorb the load in the front part of the tractor's horses. The back of the load presses on the horsemen of the dissolution. The load acts partly on the car and partly on the dissolution frame and its wheels. In order to properly distribute the weight when unraveling, a drawbar of variable length is provided.

Requirements for transport devices

A person who wants to independently make a transport vehicle for moving goods should study the requirements for car trailers. These standards are contained in GOST 37.001.220−1980, which is called “Trailers for passenger cars.” A selection of these requirements includes the following provisions:

• the weight of the trailer should not exceed 1.8 tons and half the weight of the main vehicle;
• the static load on the ball joint in its central part should be in the range of 25−100 KGS (kilogram-force);
• the total length of the cart should not be more than 8 meters, the width should not exceed 2 m 30 cm, and the height should be within three meters;
• the trailer should not have a ground clearance less than this characteristic of the vehicle moving it;
• for a trailer, one axle is used, but it is allowed to use two parallel ones, at a distance of no more than a meter from one another;
• the traction device and the hitch are duplicated by two firmly fixed pieces of chain or cable to insure the clutch in the event of a hinge failure;
• to secure the stop of the semi-trailer, the kit should include two wheel chocks; you can also make them yourself, or you can buy ready-made, factory-made ones;
• if body parts are located below the cargo being transported, and it poses a risk of contamination of passing vehicles, then mudguards or fenders are installed;
• the hitch and traction device must be manufactured in the factory, and this is confirmed by a special certificate;
• there must be fastenings for a plate with a number;
• in order to be able to use the on-board network of the machine, an electrical cable with an attached plug is provided and there is a diagram of the electrical equipment in the form as defined by GOST 9209–1976.

Features of using carts

Car trailers are used only in accordance with their intended purpose, as this is due to similar tires and wheels with the main vehicle, track width, and travel within certain ground clearance dimensions. The rule does not apply to heavy trucks and trailers. All breakdowns that occur during operation are similar to malfunctions of the brake system and chassis of the main machine.

In addition, the operation of the trailer is impaired due to damage to the coupling or wear of the turning device.

To delay the repair of these systems, you need to regularly inspect the trailer. Since the operation of the device is associated with constant shaking and shock due to uneven traffic on roads, it is necessary to tighten the fasteners from time to time and align the curved parts. Before operation, you need to check the serviceability of springs, brakes, lighting, tire pressure, the presence of a spare wheel, and the serviceability of side and body locks.

How to make a rolling jack for a car: 4 interesting ideas

An ordinary person thinks like this: if he doesn’t have something, he can buy it. A simple and straightforward approach that can only be accomplished if you have enough money in your pocket.

The DIY master has a slightly different opinion: if something doesn’t exist, it can be done.

And really, why spend money on something if you can do it yourself?

Very often this concerns tools and devices for car repair and maintenance.

Let's take, for example, a rolling jack. Yes, you can always buy the first mechanism you come across on the market, paying 1500-2000 rubles for it. But will you be sure of its reliability?

Practice shows that there are things on which it is better not to skimp. And a rolling jack is just that case.

If you buy a good jack from a reliable manufacturer - the toad is pressing, then if you have scraps of metal, you can make it yourself.

Moreover, you can immediately kill two birds with one stone. A homemade rolling jack will be much cheaper than branded models, but at the same time, more reliable than cheap Chinese analogues.

In this article, we will take a closer look at 4 interesting ideas from home craftsmen on how to make a rolling jack for a car with your own hands. If you like any of the designs, take note!

Homemade rolling jack from a bottle

The most popular designs are based on a hydraulic drive, which is a bottle jack. Its carrying capacity must be at least 3-5 tons. Preferably more.

The idea of ​​making a rolling jack belongs to the author of the YouTube channel Mr Novruz.

The jack structure consists of:

• support frame (bed);

racks;

• lever;
• hydraulic drive;
• stop

To make the main structural elements (support frame, vertical post and lifting arm) you will need thick metal.

In this case, the master uses a channel. We mark and cut the pieces to the required size. We weld a vertical stand to the supporting frame (we install the workpieces perpendicular to each other).

We cut four pieces of square rod and weld them to the base - this will be the “seat” for the bottle jack. We weld a handle-bracket made from a square rod to the outside of the rack.

The author welds a mount with a roller to the front of the frame so that the structure can be conveniently moved in the garage and on the street.

Instead of a roller, you can install a pair of wheels. Some craftsmen install two pairs of wheels, but one will be enough. By the way, you can make the wheels yourself.

Rules for driving with a roll-up trailer

Not every partially loaded vehicle trailer requires a BE license. The classification of all vehicle categories is reflected in the content of Article 25 of the Federal Law-196, according to which category “B” licenses make it possible to drive not only passenger cars, but also attach trailers to them with a maximum weight of 750 kg, not exceeding the weight of the vehicle without load. If the maximum weight of the maintenance train remains within 3500 kg.

Thus, you are not required to obtain a BE license if you need to tow a car:

• with a trailer weighing 750 kg or less;
• more than 750 kg, but less than the weight of the machine without load and if the total weight remains less than 3.5 tons.

According to the rules, your trailer must be registered, regardless of its size and model, because... considered an independent vehicle, albeit without an engine.

Attached to the rear and able to support the weight of the loaded part of the vehicle

Rack and pinion rolling jack

Despite the fact that the most common do-it-yourself lifting mechanisms are hydraulically driven, some car owners prefer to use completely mechanical designs driven by a low-lift rack-and-pinion car jack.

And such devices also have a right to exist - a budget option for the garage.

Required parts and materials:

• rack and pinion mechanical jack;
• profile pipe;
• wheels (metal or plastic).

First of all, we determine the dimensions of the future structure. Then we cut the blanks from the profile pipe and weld them into a rectangular base.

A rail with a lifting mechanism will need to be welded to the base. These parts can be removed from an old car jack.

To make the structure mobile, we weld wheels to the base. In this case, the author welded two pairs of wheels. But, as we said earlier, you can get by with just one pair of wheels.

The next step is to make a hinge assembly with a lifting arm.

Next, install the handle from the car jack, and our homemade product is ready. We clean the welds and metal and start painting.

The operating principle of the device is very simple. Using the handle, moving the lifting element along the rail, we thus raise the lever, which rests on the bottom of the car and lifts it.

Details on how to make a rolling jack with your own hands are shown in the video below. This idea belongs to the author of the YouTube channel Ze Pro.

Please note: No matter whether you use a hydraulic or mechanical jack, always use vehicle safety stands. Don't put yourself in danger and don't risk your life!

How to make a car tipper with your own hands

During the operation of the vehicle, over time there will be a need to gain normal access to the underbody of the vehicle. To overturn a car, it is often necessary to involve several people at once, and this procedure is quite labor-intensive and complex. On the other hand, a special car tipper greatly simplifies this whole process, so you can handle everything even alone. The device not only makes the task easier, but also makes tipping the machine safer.

But since it’s quite difficult to buy such a device, and you don’t want to waste extra money, we’ll talk about how to make a car tipper with your own hands. Drawings, photos, dimensions - you will find this and other necessary information in our article.

What to prepare

In order to make a car tipper with your own hands, we will need the following:

• corner 50 mm;
• channel;
• Bulgarians;
• welding

In general, the design of the device is distinguished by its simplicity both in manufacture and in use. You can verify this by reading the drawings and videos of do-it-yourself car tippers. At the same time, it is very important, even at the stage of drawing up diagrams, to check the equipment for parameters related to load capacity, safety and lifting angle.

For materials to make a car tipper with our own hands, we will need metal pipes with a rectangular cross-section.

It is important that the material is very durable, has good corrosion resistance and can support the weight of the vehicle.

It is worth noting that before using a car tipper, it is important to inspect the tool for the presence of certain defects. If there is visible damage, the device will be unsafe to use.

How to make a car tipper with your own hands: drawings and assembly process

To ensure that the vehicle tipper can function properly, a winch or jack of any type is used. The second option is more popular (and all vehicle owners probably have jacks at their disposal). Any lifting equipment is suitable, including rack-and-pinion, hydraulic or worm-type mechanisms.

In our article you can see drawings of a do-it-yourself auto tipper. Particular attention should be paid to the jack heel. It is important that it has a large margin of rigidity and strength. It is this element that bears the most loads. The heel should be made from a metal sheet, the thickness of which reaches about 5-7 millimeters.

The same applies to the platform that rests on the bottom of the car. Therefore, for its manufacture they use a 5-7 mm sheet of metal, which is given maximum stiffening ribs. The lower platform, support corner and beam are also made from metal profiles.

If we look at the drawings of a do-it-yourself car tipper , we will see that the lower platform is an immovable element made of one profile pipe that will be located on the ground. The support corner is made of two pipes connected by small sections of metal profile every 20-30 centimeters. It can move vertically along a guide rail. A series of holes are made in the latter, with which you can fix the tipper in the desired position. When the lifting is completed, the platform can be secured with a bolt. In addition, the platform and the support angle are also connected with a bolt.

How to install the device

It is important not only to correctly carry out the work on manufacturing the tipper, but also to install the mechanism properly. First you need to stretch the support platform under the bottom of the vehicle. The heel should be on the side that will rise. We introduce a support corner from above, which is secured with a bolt to the platform. The support beam is then inserted into the device. Before doing this, the caps should be removed from the wheels to which the beam is adjacent.

The heel is installed between the platform and the support corner. The rail must pass through all three elements. It acts as a guide and fixator. The bottom of the rail is screwed to the platform using a bolt. Next, lubricate the profile with grease to make it easier to move along the rail. Only then do we install the element, moving it slightly under the bottom of the car.

A jack is then attached to the tipper and lifting begins. Having reached the desired height, we fix it with a cotter pin inserted into the hole.

Manual lift for lifting a car

This device is not a jack in the truest sense of the word. However, this is one of the types of mechanical lift.

The idea of ​​making this device belongs to the author of the YouTube channel “BOBKA TV”.

First of all, we prepare the necessary parts. To do this, we use the following materials: profile pipes, strips of metal and a piece of round pipe (we cut the round pipe blank lengthwise and use one of the resulting halves).

Next, we proceed to the manufacture of a homemade device. We weld a piece of round pipe to a section of professional pipe, as shown in the photo below.

We weld another piece of corrugated pipe to the opposite end of the profile. We weld a stand from a long section of profile pipe to it - it will act as a lever. A handle must be welded to the top of the rack.

Next, install the wheel axle from a threaded rod and weld it. We weld a piece of profile with furniture wheels to the stand.

We clean the welds and start painting. After this we install the support wheels.

The principle of operation of a homemade device is very simple. We rest the trolley against the bottom of the car. Then we press on the lever with our own weight and lift the car. In this case, you no longer need to press the lever.

The step-by-step process of making a homemade rolling jack is shown in the author's video.

If you liked this homemade product, you can repeat it. But be sure to use car safety stands.

Car jack with homemade hydraulic system

Some home craftsmen come up with completely homemade designs - that is, without the use of hydraulic or mechanical jacks. However, in most cases, such homemade devices do not justify themselves.

One of these devices for lifting a car was made by the author of the YouTube channel K i.

To make the frame of the structure, the author used metal profile pipes. A wheel axle is welded to the bottom of the frame, onto which two wheels are placed. Furniture wheels are attached to the opposite end of the base.

The author made the hydraulic system from plastic sewer pipes, a silicone hose, fittings and a piston. All elements of the system are interconnected. Attached to the frame.

From a piece of round steel pipe, the author made a handle that connects to the piston.

The frame and handle will need to be painted (all welds must first be cleaned), after which you can begin the final assembly of the lifting device.

The assembled structure should not be taken seriously, since it is not able to fully compete with mechanical and hydraulic rolling jacks.

And most importantly, there is no safety when using this device. In general, a rather dubious design.

The step-by-step process of making a jack with a homemade hydraulic system, as well as the principle of its operation, is shown in the author’s video.

Do-it-yourself car tackle (drive2 drawings)

We welcome everyone who is interested in motorsport.

Today we would like to talk about a rigid hitch with partial loading of a car. In common parlance - “tackle”. Two manufacturers are widely known in our village. Both make turntable carts. About the first one, we heard not the most flattering reviews from friends: the carts fall apart, after each race they have to be patched and strengthened. The second one is in perfect order with the reliability of the carts, but due to the high metal consumption, the “rolls” are very heavy. And everything would be fine, but recently nothing has been heard about the second manufacturer. Therefore, we decided to weld the cart ourselves.

We started with analyzing and designing a tackle to suit our needs.

We decided to make a rigid cart for several reasons:

1.

To transport a car, we need a minimum loading height, because...
The “Tuper Killer”
will drive on asphalt in the summer, which means installing a suspension with minimal ground clearance. It is easier to achieve the minimum loading height on a rigid cart, because There is no rotary superstructure.

2.

For further maintenance of the hitch, we need to drive it into our boxes, and our gate is 2.5 m. There are again problems with the rotary one, because it is wider than the hard one. Having experience owning a rotary trolley, we can say that this is a serious storage problem: there are few garage boxes where you can drive the cart.

3.

The metal consumption of the structure and, accordingly, the cost are lower. Fewer nodes means greater reliability. And it’s easier to make a rigid one than a rotary one.

The only disadvantage of a hard tackle is the effect of pushing the tractor in a turn. Precisely because of the lack of ability to turn. This feature is felt on light tractors, but in the case of our

- it will be little noticeable. And there haven’t been many maneuvers in narrow places in our entire travel history. Having assessed all the pros and cons, we settled on a hard tackle.

And then the story in photographs:

A motorcycle is a whole philosophy and lifestyle for a large number of people. It represents to its owners freedom, the romance of the road, exciting and unforgettable travel. But for a bike to last for many years, it requires proper care and maintenance. First, you need to figure out what types they come in and how to make a motorcycle mount with your own hands.

What documents are needed for a rolling trailer?

Your dokatka trailer for transporting a car must be registered with the traffic police, for which you will need the following documents:

• PTS devices;
• passport;
• purchase and sale agreement (if purchased);
• receipt of paid state duty.

A new cart must be marked with a sign upon completion of the registration procedure. Individuals are not required to insure themselves under compulsory motor liability insurance (FZ-40). A technical inspection is also not required.

When traveling with a trailer, be sure to carry documents for it with you. Traffic police inspectors may request them for inspection.

Trailer dimensions

The maximum dimensions of a roll-on trailer for transporting cars are not regulated in the articles of traffic rules or the Technical Regulations of the Customs Union. However, the length of the road train (car + tractor) is 20 meters and should weigh a maximum of 3.5 tons. Maximum width - 2.55 meters (maximum), height - 4 meters.

The tractor will be clearly visible on the night road

The vehicle itself must be equipped with working lights and side lights so that it can be seen in the dark or in tunnels. You can drive at the usual urban speed of 60 km/h, unless additional restrictions are set. On motorways 90 km/h, on other roads 70 km/h.

Types of motorcycle stands

Today, tackles have proven themselves to be very convenient devices for repairing and servicing a bike. Every motorcycle owner who has had to repair their equipment has thought about purchasing such a device. The tackle allows the owner of the iron horse to install it very steadily for repairs. The roller is very convenient when changing a wheel - it allows you to hang the motorcycle and thereby easily remove the wheel.

We can say that a homemade stand is a do-it-yourself motorcycle stand, only without a table. If there are wheels, the lift can easily be moved to a given location for repairs. The small dimensions of the device allow it to be used in places with limited space.

• rear - for servicing the rear of the motorcycle;
• front - for servicing the front of the motorcycle.

The front type lift comes with an adapter that allows you to hang the wheel for repairs. The adapter is selected for a specific bike model. This tool is suitable for repairing the front fork. A do-it-yourself car tray is ideal for storing cars in the winter. It has a simple design and does not require special knowledge to operate it.

The rear type tackle is a little more structurally complex. It features an L-shaped device with a handle. It is equipped with clamps whose task is to securely hold the wheel. The width of the clamps is selected for a specific wheel. Such tackles are mainly used by repair services, as they allow lifting weights of up to 300 kg. With the help of such a tackle, you can hang the motorcycle in such a way that the suspension is maximally unloaded. Thanks to this feature, it is quite easy to replace the chain.

Transport trailers

Nowadays there are many types of transport trailers. All of them are divided according to the following criteria:

Special purpose - this allows you to take into account the maximum load of the trailer. These include: cement trucks, panel trucks, log trucks and others.

General transport equipment – ​​includes varieties of curtainsider trailers.

When working with such trailers, it is necessary to take into account in advance the weight that the trailer will carry. This measure will help avoid a traffic accident.

Selecting a Factory Lift

The first thing you should pay attention to when choosing a stand in a store is the manufacturer of the device. The manufacturer must certify its product and provide all quality guarantees for the device. Factory lifts undergo a series of safety and operational tests. Branded products must comply with GOST standards. Good expensive lifts are made from quality materials using modern technologies. Therefore, it is very important to choose the right model.

The motorcycle lift industry is evolving along with technological progress. New production technologies are emerging, new materials for manufacturing are being developed. Competition among manufacturers leads to the emergence of more functional and easier-to-use devices.

Branded tires are increasingly being used by professional riders around the world. The presence of a large number of additional accessories can significantly expand the capabilities of these devices and simplify their work. A modern lift can be operated by one person and allows you to lift a heavy rear end, securing it securely.

Types of devices

The most popular type is the platform lift. It is quite mobile and versatile - it allows you to service different types of motorcycles. Hydraulic ones are used mainly for servicing heavy touring motorcycles and massive choppers. This type of lift is installed under the motorcycle frame and lifts it using hydraulics. Thus, the motorcycle is left in a suspended state, which allows for comprehensive maintenance and repair of equipment. Tools of this type have many adjustments and settings, which allows them to be used for repairing motorcycles of any type.

Factory or homemade

When repairing and servicing a bike, it is advisable to use both types of tackles - front and rear types. Factory solutions will meet all safety requirements, will be more functional and will have additional accessories, but all this will be quite expensive. On the other hand, homemade options will be several times cheaper, but the safety and functionality of such products will be much lower.

Advantages of factory devices:

• factory tackles are used by professionals;
• they have ideal proportions and geometry;
• can be operated by one person;
• can be installed under the pendulum and slider;
• have many adjustments and settings.

DIY making

A branded factory tool is a good and convenient tool for motorcycle repair. But the prices for such devices are quite high. It will also be quite difficult to choose a stand for a specific motorcycle model. Many companies offer universal stools. But, as practice shows, a universal tackle does not always have functions for a specific motorcycle.

In this case, you can make a motorized scooter with your own hands using drawings found on the Internet. A homemade lift can be perfectly adjusted to the size of your bike. It is quite simple to make, but it requires a lot of time and great care, since it must have ideal geometry. Otherwise, working with it will be quite problematic.

There are two ways to lift a motorcycle by the rear wheel. In the first case, lifting is carried out using a bushing installed in the wheel axle. In this position it is convenient to work with the chain.

In the second option, threads are made on the bushings and they are attached to the pendulum. In this position it is convenient to change wheels. When making the central frame of the tackle, you will need the help of a welder. All corners must be perfectly measured and welded securely. After all, safety and convenience during work depend on the accuracy of measurements and the quality of welding.

In conclusion, I would like to say that if possible, it is better to purchase a good branded option. If you are limited on money, then it is quite easy to make a motorcycle lift with your own hands. Drawings can be easily found on the Internet. A high-quality tackle will be an indispensable assistant in the repair and maintenance of your favorite bike.

The dolly trailer is designed for towing passenger cars using the partial loading method. The dolly trailer must be transported disassembled, otherwise at the first traffic police post you will be issued a fine, because... A trailer without a car will be considered a trailer. with all that it implies. During the design, emphasis was placed on turning the wheels, because Without swivel wheels, there is a skid when towing a car. There are photos of tests and the product itself. PS Special THANKS to users: sanfox for the 3D model “VAZ wheel hub. " and Dimka_88 for "Winch Q=0.5t". And also to the user of a BMW 8 series from an automobile site from Chelyabyansk. Basically it was his idea. I just tried to turn simple sketches into drawings, and them into a product with testing and subsequent operation.

Every motorcyclist must understand that his new “friend” needs appropriate maintenance, which consists of diagnosing and removing all kinds of faults. And in order to successfully carry out repair work at home, you need to equip your workshop with such a device as a motorcycle underride.

Using a motorcycle stand

Currently, rolling under a motorcycle is a very important attribute in the life of every motorcyclist. Such a solution should be present in every workshop, both at home and in a specialized one, where complex work is carried out. With the help of a tackle, you can carry out comprehensive maintenance and repair of your bike. In addition, such a device can become indispensable when repairing a car. As for two-wheeled vehicles, it is used when it is necessary to lift the rear part to replace disks or tires, or when repairing the cooling radiator. If you intend to repair the motorcycle yourself, be careful when choosing the appropriate model of stand.

Given the presence of movable wheels, such structures can be freely moved around the workshop, placing them in a specific place. As for the invention itself, it is a special type of motorcycle lift, but unlike classic models, there is no work table. Due to its compact dimensions, the roller is suitable for small chambers where a motorcycle is placed for painting or drying. The service life is practically unlimited, and no special maintenance is required.

Motorcycle lifts come in two main types, depending on the part of the vehicle that will be repaired. Based on this, a tackle occurs:

• rear;
• in front of him.

In most cases, representatives of the second category are supplied with a unique stand and a special adapter that allows you to hang the wheel and carry out a number of repair work.

Using a lift to repair a fork

It's no secret that a front lift is a useful tool for rebuilding a fork. You need to understand that existing adapters have different diameters , so you need to choose the right solution for a specific motorcycle. The front roll can be used to store the machine in winter. The design is particularly easy to use and does not require additional maintenance. As for operation, it is not at all difficult. It is enough to follow some rules and step-by-step guidance.

Tackles for the rear wheel, for example, L-shaped, are made in the form of an adjustable product, which is equipped with a comfortable handle. It can move along the surface due to movable wheels. The presence of clamps helps to hold the wheel on all sides.

When choosing the appropriate option, pay attention to the width of the clamp . It is determined by the width of the wheel. Such a roll will become an indispensable solution for workshops and repair services, where it is necessary to withstand loads of up to 300 kg, distributing the weight throughout the entire structure. Using this device, you can quickly lubricate the chain or replace it with a new one. You will also be able to hang the bike in such a way that the suspension receives maximum unloading.

Buying a factory model

Before deciding on a specific model, consider the manufacturer’s popularity and consumer trust in it.
It is important to give preference to those offers that have appropriate quality guarantees and accompanying certificates. It is no secret that all factory products are pre-tested for suitability for further use, which ensures maximum safety, both for the motorcyclist and his two-wheeled “beast”. A good tackle must have a GOST certificate.

As for affordable domestically produced products, in most cases they are quite high quality , but with imported models the situation looks completely different. Cheap lifts do not always cope with their responsibilities and are not suitable for full repairs. The wrong approach to choosing the right model can lead to great danger, creating an emergency situation or scratching the vehicle.

Offers from trusted companies are characterized by excellent performance properties and increased reliability. Such devices are purchased by professional motorcyclists who value their own safety and the safety of their iron “friend.”

In addition, self-respecting brands try to keep up with the times, so they constantly introduce advanced technologies in new developments , trying to improve existing products. Due to high competition in the production of new lifts, interesting offers are constantly coming on sale. Many of them are truly reliable and convenient and surpass previous developments in functionality and other characteristics.

A reverse handle is supplied with the tackle. A properly made product does not require complex maintenance, and it can be installed with the efforts of one worker. Transportation around the workshop is very simple, and the reliability of fixing the vehicle is maximum. Due to these advantages, the tackle allows you to successfully lift the rear part, protecting the car or motorcycle from an unexpected fall.

Factory inventions are professional equipment with many advantages. Let's highlight the most important ones:

• Such models are actively used by professional racers and motorcyclists;
• They are characterized by ideal geometry and versatility;
• The factory-made trolley comes with a handle that allows you to operate it without the help of third parties;
• Such devices are placed under pendulums or sliders;
• Lifts from stores have special regulatory elements that allow you to change the configuration of width and length;

The main advantage of tackles is their ideal geometry. But it is this parameter that determines the reliability and correctness of the bike’s fixation.

Models for two wheels are practically no different from each other. When choosing such a solution, you should pay attention only to reliability and ease of use.

Many people prefer purchased models of motorcycle lifts, because there are a huge variety of them on the market. However, others try to make a tackle with their own hands, because its cost is quite high. If you belong to the first group, carefully consider all the characteristics of your upcoming purchase when purchasing a suitable solution for the rear or front wheel. If you don’t see anything difficult in trying to complete the design yourself, be prepared to devote the necessary time and attention to the upcoming operations.

Existing types of tackles

As mentioned above, in the relevant stores you can find a wide variety of tackles for a vehicle such as a motorcycle. They are divided into several groups , having different operational properties, operating principles and prices.
In order not to make a mistake in choosing the appropriate model, you need to study existing classifications in advance and review the list of popular offers. Among the most common types of motorcycle tackles, the platform version takes the leading place. It is characterized by special compactness, which expands its scope of use. Hydraulic inventions are necessary for repair work or maintenance of touring class bikes with large mass and dimensions. Such a solution is rolled under the motorcycle frame or engine compartment, and the use of a hydraulic drive helps raise the vehicle to a specific height.

The presence of such features gives the specialist access to all important components and parts of the motorcycle, which is necessary for successful comprehensive repairs. With the help of a good rolling tool, you can manipulate wheels, repair the chassis, and also carry out full diagnostics. In addition, lifting mechanisms are indispensable for machines of any class. Due to the presence of special adjusting screws, the motorcycle is fixed as securely as possible. In this case, the worker can adjust it according to the height and width of the device, leaving the working area free for further repairs from any side. A properly executed design allows you to get to the right place without much difficulty.

Features of creating a homemade lift

Currently, the motorcycle lift market is filled with many different offers. However, due to the high price, not every motorcyclist can afford such a purchase. In addition, choosing the right option for your “beast” is not as easy as it seems.
And although some brands produce universal versions, their fixing elements do not fit all pendulums. Because of these features, many motorcyclists try to make a tackle with their own hands. A high-quality model is capable of lifting a motorcycle and locking it in a specific position. In this case, any costs will be reduced to a minimum.

If you have at least the basic skills and know how to handle some tools, this will allow you to complete the work ahead in the shortest possible time. In this case, you can create equipment that fits the size of your iron horse .

To successfully do everything yourself, be patient. It is no secret that such an action requires a lot of patience and time, so if you are not ready to sacrifice several hours to assemble all the parts, then simply do not start the work.
