  • Anyone ever made bigger then a 8x8 IE 10x10 or 12x12

    Just wondered if anyone has made one or they made a version that was
    I was thinking about it today and thought I'd post the questions on here

    Sorry if it's not in the right area please move if it's not

      On more axles not doubled up I mean as I've seen that and didn't think it would really help in anyway

        More axles? I think it would begin to get too differcult to skid steer the thing due to excess length. The tires near each end wouldn't offer turning power. They'd be dragged side ways causing ground friction without much turning power. All skid steer atvs do this but to have one ten or more axles long would make it really fiffercult to turn.

          I mean axles as in a 6x6 has 3 ||| and 8x8 has 4 |||| so has anyone made one with 5/6 ||||| ||||||
          And yes I know axles don't go all the way through I'm just trying to show an idea of what I mean
          Skid steering would still work but with the inter wheels moving not stopped

            I above post reflects what you mean. The extreme front and rear tires would cause more ground friction than turning ability. These would be dragged sideways in a turn. This would cause a lot of stress to the chains and drive system.
            I figure its posible, just not prudent (which is why none exist at the local dealer).

                Five wheels per side does qualify. Interesting.

                    Quite true R-Gunn but Argo addressed this in the Avenger with a staggered axle placement at the rear that basically made the machine pivot easier to add more length I would buy one for sure for the added storage I once called ODG some years ago about getting a special build ten wheeler they said they would but their injection mold would not expand to accept the length.NCT

                      Yes When Bristol was experimenting with different prototypes they made a bush swamper with 5 axles on each side and all with duallys but it is a total myth and I don’t know if it stil exists but I love to think there is a 20 wheeled giant still out there
