In their latest YouTube upload, Grind Hard Plumbing Co. takes viewers behind the scenes of a pivotal milestone: the first steering test of their wild custom-built 3x3 monster trike. Known for turning off-road dreams into a reality with creativity, welds, and a whole lot of torque, the team puts their latest creation through its first major shakeout.

🚧 Engineering the Monster Trike On YouTube.

This isn’t your average three-wheeler. Built with two massive truck tires in the rear and a single tractor tire up front, the trike demands a custom-engineered frame to handle its sheer size and weight. The geometry is unconventional, and so is the steering system, which had to be designed from scratch to accommodate the oversized components. From heavy-duty spindles to creatively routed linkages, the video highlights just how much precision and problem-solving goes into building a machine that defies conventional logic—but works anyway.

🛞First Steering Test: Expectations vs Reality.

During the video, the crew takes the trike for its maiden steering test. What follows is a mix of successful maneuvering, surprising responsiveness, and, of course, a few hilarious moments as they push the limits of their creation. Despite the size and weight, the trike manages to turn and is expected to carve over rough terrain much better than expected.

🔧 Trial, Error, and Adjustments.

True to form, the team isn’t shy about showing what doesn’t work. Midway through the test, they discover flex in the steering arms and some binding under load—issues that are part of any good prototype test. With grinders, welders, and quick thinking, they make fast changes on the spot and get right back on track.

🎬 Final Thoughts.

The successful steering test is a big win for Grind Hard Plumbing Co., proving yet again that wild ideas can become functional machines with enough skill and stubbornness. The 3x3 monster trike is not far from being finished, but it's already carving its name into the off-road world—one giant tire track at a time.
