to kill a yota


Forward


If you already have a truck your best bet would be buy a bolt on grill guard made of solid bars
around the outside (hollow will be very hard to weld to in the event something happens).

These would make it easier to accomplish armoring the front and rear windshields. You can
have a grill guard you can weld several steel blanks to the guard and tap them (which is threading a

grill guard to the frame you will and be permanently affecting your vehicle. By adding an offroad bar
in the bed of the truck and an off road grill, you can avoid messing up your vehicle. I've seen a couple dually's pulling goose neck trailers that had a premade kind
of armor over the rear window that was like an offroad bar with metal slats to protect the window from
the trailer

Bolt on side rails would probably be easily converted to a cage support that can be applied and
removed via a set of bolts at each side rail and on the roof could give you a convertible zombacolypse
vehicle.

Assuming you have a 4 door crew cab or and model car, It wont be quite as simple barricading the
windows of your vehicle. What I would recommend is that you invest in a welding machine and some
classes, or hire a welder, to create an expanded metal (heavy gauge possibly #9 or better) guard that
has a square metal base. Then drill some holes in it and be ready to drill the holes in your vehicles door
panel and bolt it together, for a more permanent application apply a liberal line of silicone sealant (get the
clearish silicone, not its water based counterpart) and wipe off the access as you tighten the bolts.

On the note given below of weight. The max weight a vehicle can take is located on the driver side door on
a sticker in most vehicles, if preparing ahead of time this can be adjusted for. Be sure to add the weight
of possible passengers and gear.

Armored Concepts
<under construction>

Here are some ideas for creating a permanent zombie platform, remember that your ideas are only as
good as you let them be, buy a truck from a junk yard for $200 and play with it. Remember there are easy
ways to test if your vehicles armor will hold, just attack it

The Desert-runner


Very simple. the previous owners didn't need this beauty any more so take it to the shop
and weld on a cage. Parts, Front grill gaurd (aftermarket or build it yourself) the
windowgaurds are tubular steel on the front and that was supposed to be expanded
metal on the side windows lol


The Scavenger pickup truck
This is an idea for a light truck that could pull a small box trailer for scavenging. As you will note the drawing is second rate lol but I'm sure you get the idea. Basically the idea is to cut all the metal off the body (except on the cab, the recessed light bays <headlights>, and inside of the bed. This being completed, 2 in" angle iron welded body supports replace the hollow sheet metal outer shell, finally this is covered by a 1/8th in thick steel sheet. Angles are kept in easy duplication range with a very low "polygon count". The engine and transmission bay have been upgraded to support the install of a larger engine and transmission, a Rear axel from a larger vehicle (the rear frame portion of a dually cut out and welded to the s10 frame then armored. This would be trial and error because I dont know exactly how heavy this would become. Though I can garuntee that you will need to upgrade the suspension parts to handle more weight.

As Concived
Engine: 454 Chevy, late 80's model
Frame: Front/S10 or 1500 Rear/1500 or 2500 franken frame, chopped then welded

Suspension upgraded for heavy duty offroading with 4 inch increase in ground clearance and much harder springs and shock absorbers.

(sorry about the low quality drawing,
just working with paint)

Pictured is an idea for a portable
building for use as sort of a "safe
house" (yes L4D). One that is
capable with some tools could even
build an armored track sliding door in
the side and modify a van to make
safe pick ups in any situation.
Could possibly be usefull inside large cities (like new orleans and new york) assuming every one in the city was infected (90% infected), you drop one of these bad boys and build a garage one for a light small vehicle (armored dune buggy?). Install radios, camera systems, armored gun ports, possibly an armored crows nest, **** near limitless possibility.



Set up and delivery free of charge



This would be perfect for city raiding and reconnaissance, just add a 15 foot thin trailer with 3 foot high walls on it to through raided supplies in and you would have a city serpent


Add a plow on it and this beast will clear the path for the last one


Enclosed offroader??

When creating an attack or defense convoy you must take into account the terrain on which you will travel, the difference in gas millage of each vehicle (keeping them close is a good idea that way you dont have to stop every 3 hrs to refill a different vehicle), and whether you have capable drivers or not

~Seek~'s Survival

A good reason to armor the vehicle you are planning to use

This impact was caused by ~Seek~'s inability to realize driving drunk was not a good idea. 740 areial over a 2ft deep ditch one impact on the front right quarter panel, continueing the spin and then another impact head on, both impacts were agains 2 seperate 1 1/2 foot in diameter wooden telephone/power pole
