Someone posted an ork KOS boss on a quad here a LOOONG time ago; I think he used a toy he found at Walmart that he converted up with da gubbinz an' sneaky bitz.

I'd do the same and hit up the local toy stores/departments and look for what they've got to use as a basis.

quads really arnt that hard to make. i made one for my renegades biker squad. you basically need 2 bikes, one thats for parts. i cut the front forks off and turned them outward. then basiaclly glued the tires on. for the forks i put the springs from some ink pens on the forks before gluing on for that spring look. i did run into some stability issues so i just cut some small nails up and used them for more suspension. it actually looked really cool. not too bad. im sure you can do the same with some ork bike bits.
GOOD LUCK! and post some pics when your done

well what kind of 4 wheeler you are looking for anyway?

check out this thead I put up a month ago. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/217186.page
you can do two 4 wheelers with 3 bike kits it is a simple conversion and takes about an hour to make.

Twister...

If you havent started already might I suggest to build a trike, you will get your meatier ride without being mistaken for a buggy.

**KingCracker**

naw i havnt seen anyone confuse a quad for a buggy. if you want a quad make one. altho i ALSO have a trike in that squad and it looks pretty neat as well.
and twister that was SUPER easy looking to convert. nice job lol

I used match box style quad runners I found at Wal-Mart for my Nob bikers

and painted

**KingCracker**

wow thats a pretty good fit. also it looks kindda orky after painted. i think id plasti card the fenders to be more "squared" looking. nice mini
