What Is Rocker Bogie Suspension?

What Is Rocker Bogie Suspension?





There is no need of additional motors for steering other than six wheels driving motors. If we rotate all six wheels in anti-clockwise robot will turn in the left direction. In another words, if we rotate left wheels to backwards and right wheels to forward direction we can achieve the left turning. Similarly, the right turn can be achieved by rotating all six wheels in clockwise direction. In this method we are using additional servo/stepper motors to turn wheels. Two steering motors for front wheels and two Steering motors for rear wheels. Middle two wheels only have their driving motors. If we need to turn in to left side, turn front and rear wheels using steering servos as following figure . Then rotate all six wheels or two front and two rear wheels in clockwise direction in order to turn the whole platform in the left direction. In the similar way, we can achieve right steering also as following figure..





Engine options are limited to just one in the U.S., outside the G63 AMG model of course. Called the G550, this version features a twin-turbo, 4.0-liter V-8 engine that generates 416 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque. Needless to say, the G550 is notably more powerful than the Defender. In Europe, you can also order the G-Class with a diesel engine. The 3.0-liter inline-six in the G350d model cranks out 282 horsepower and 443 pound-feet. The same mill generates 326 horses and 516 pound-feet in the G400d. All models are powered by nine-speed automatic transmissions. The fancier and more powerful G-Class is also notably more expensive than the Defender. The fact that Land Rover brought the Defender back on the market after almost four years is big news in itself. It鈥檚 even bigger news that the Defender returns to the U.S. And now that it鈥檚 back, the Defender retains the boxy, old-school design of its predecessor, but combines it with a modern architecture and all the cool technology available with the fancier Range Rover models. It鈥檚 capable, it鈥檚 fully customizable, and it comes with a diverse engine lineup that includes both gasoline and diesel mills, as well as a hybrid drivetrain. The 2020 Defender is a fine example of how a historic nameplate should return into the 21st century. An example that Jeep and Mercedes-Benz should follow for the equally iconic Wrangler and G-Class.





The new Ypsilon is a leap forward with the innovative "Smart Fuel System" means a device that replaces the traditional cap and is mounted on the end of the fuel filler pipe. Developed with particular attention to female customers, the system opens and closes automatically when the pump is connected to the side and removed, so supply is easier and safer because it reduces emissions and fuel spillage. The new "Smart Fuel System" also solves the problem of "fuel use inappropriate" because it does not allow gas to be pumped into a diesel powered car. As models and Musa Delta and get city cars, the new Lancia Ypsilon equipped with headlights and taillights developed with Magneti Marelli Automotive Lighting, which combines advanced technology with innovative design which is nevertheless inspired by the centuries-old tradition Lancia. The rear lights are fitted with LEDs, brighter than conventional bulbs, providing increased security combined with a distinctive look.





Howdy Land Rover Enthusiasts - I get a lot of messages every day asking : What engine is better/ which do I want? I am going to try to answer these questions here, and most importantly, provide step-by-step instructions to do this conversion yourself. Please check back in to this entry from time to time, because I am going to be updating it with some frequency from now on with more pictures, more steps, and more information/ instruction as time allows. Let's start with the easy questions : 200tdi or 300tdi? 300tdi is a better, or more powerful engine (It must be about one hundred better! What does the labor cost for this conversion ? Yes, you can buy 'just' the 200tdi or 300tdi engine, but it will not bolt up to your transmission, if your transmission was bolted to a V8 engine . Bellhousings are different. Input shafts different. The money you would save is negligible. 500. Not worth it. You will want this transmission later, trust me. How difficult is the engine swap? About a 6 on the difficulty scale, in my opinion. The swaps take me about a week, and I have done many now. I will outline the procedures in this post following now - - - You should have a shop space, lift/ forklift/ chain hoist and tools. And patience. And at least a little mechanical aptitude. This is just a place-setter post.





I then gave the whole chassis another coat of paint. I still need to spray some kind of rust inhibitor inside. I'm considering spraying chain bar oil inside to keep the rust away. In the background I've also been chipping away at finishing my axles. My rear axle was pretty much done, Just needed to set the bearing end float. Using a DTI, I set them to 0.06 to 0.10 mm end float. Finished the assembly with new drive flanges, felt seals, split pins and end caps. I've fitted the brake backing plates but will fit new brake components later on. Front axle was a pretty big job. I overhauled the swivel hubs with new bearings, railko bushing and seals. My swivel balls have been re-chromed at some stage, so I am re using them. I bought a kit that came with The railko bushes and upper pins, the taper roller bearing and all the shims. It was an axle set so enough for both sides, and was reasonable quality despite being Britpart.
