The frame, for the remains of the Niva body, was made according to the dimensions of the original side members, only the front was deliberately lowered by 6 cm, so as not to lift, the body can be raised if you suddenly made a mistake with the calculations. One of these days we will pair the body with the frame, and then with the frame and strengthen the joints

Hello! How heavy is the frame and what kind of metal?
I haven’t weighed it, I don’t know, I’ll have to weigh the whole field and how much it turned out would be interesting for myself. Profile 60x80x3mm
How will you weld, and before assembling it on the I-beam?
Do you have drawings and dimensions? The machine is simply rotten, I want to restore it, but just on the frame.
And yesterday I saw it live, already in more or less assembled form. It turns out to be a normal device.
Of course, you're great, the work was done tremendously, but the profile seemed a bit thin to me, I made one frame from the corners, made 50*50*5, and made the other from 75*75*6, look here vk.com/id167531216?z=phot...167531216_201778215%2Frev
HZ, maybe so, while everything is frozen, testing is far away. And if you think about it logically, what motivates the frame from the profile. We made the original spars from 2mm steel from 3mm plus a floor and all the iron is 1.2mm, everything is like in a stock car, only with an additional reserve, since there is enough stock reserve (after all, the engineers were sitting there calculating) the front spars break only due to metal fatigue or service life (they rot) plus we’ll also make a safety frame from pipes, this will also add additional rigidity, I think the rest of the increase (thickening the body elements will only make the structure heavier, it won’t do anything else, plus don’t forget about safety on public roads if you have an accident spar from a 6mm corner, then you will be able to survive, the effect of a hammer hitting an anvil. Good luck.
If I’m not mistaken, the lounges on the field are made of two sheets of 1.5 mm steel for a stock car, and if there are 33 wheels + a winch, then you need something powerful, and as for the accident, if it hits the wall, it’s no good, but if it hits the front, then the chances are greater when the frame is not It’s in vain to make a safety cage or a life capsule in F1. And as for the weight, I don’t really care; Land’s total is 4.5 tons and it drives.
You are mistaken. In the front ones there is a reinforcement for attaching the beam + additional thickness. And as for an accident, the side members are made in such a way that in the event of an accident they fold up to dampen the load. Read the design of the car and you will understand everything

tell her the story maybe

Cool, but is there an end result?)
Guys, please give me the dimensions of your frame, if it’s not difficult, I’m very interested, I want to remake mine and if possible, about the frame field from 469
There are no dimensions, we need to measure the climb, the floor was already partially welded. We did this: we measured the old spars and made the frame exactly according to them. The profile is 80x60x3, two pieces of 3 m each. they made cuts and bent and welded, then at the ends they further strengthened the place of welding; the main thing is that there should be no transverse seams on the frame. In the photos the frame is without reinforcement, this was done later. Later I will post how the steering was made.
