Swap gearboxes in a Power Wheels Jeep

Swap gearboxes in a Power Wheels Jeep

So, your children have the same old boring Fisher-Price Power Wheels that all the other kids on the block have. Do you really want your child to be like all of the rest? No, I didn't think so. Turn those miniature Power Wheels, Dumar or Peg Perego vehicles into a little bit of realism, if you can handle it. All it takes is a little modification and you'll be wishing you were five again. With a few simple hacks, your son and daughter will be burning rubber, jumping curbs and burying those other kids in the taste of defeat.

This video tutorial will help you transform that slow and dainty Power Wheels Jeep ride-on-toy into a beast. Just watch and see how to switch gearboxes. When converting the toy to 24 volts, you may encounter some failure, and switching the gearboxes will help save you frustration in the future.
