this is a tut for new builders on sscoasters. It is basictly how to make a 2 motor lift hill.

Step one, you will need...
2 motors
4 grey spacers
3 blue spacers
4 yellow rods and 4 blue rods(optional only used for an example of good supporting)
1 grey rod
two grey or purple connecters and two tan connecters
4 snowflake connecters

and...

2 medium sized gears:

Step 2:

put a grey/purple connecter on the end of the grey rod. Next put 2 blue spacers and 3 grey spacers on (picture1):


Step 3: make picture 2:

Step 4:
put the snow flake connecter onto the grey rod like on picture 3.

Step 5:
put the motor on the grey rod and attach a snowflake connecter onto the motor. Next attach a tan connecter onto the rod like on picture 4

Step 6:
put the two medium sized gears onto the grey rod and attach a tan connecter like on picture 5.

Step 7:
put one snowflake connecter onto the other motor and put the motor onto the grey rod, make another one of picture 2:
and attach it to the other side of the motor.
you should have the motor look like picture 6.

Step 8:
put a grey spacer and 2 blue spacers onto the grey rod after the second motor and put on a grey/purple connecter at the end of the grey rod like on picture 7.

Step 9 and final step!:

Attach the motor to the bottom of your coaster. you do not have to use the blue and yellow rods on the snowflake connecters. It was just a example of good supporting from my coaster kamekaze. This is what your final motor should look like (picture 8)

Please tell me what you think about it! Also tell me if you used it on one of your coasters and it worked or not.
Sorry for the attachments, my photobucket doesnt work.

The only problem is that the track needs to fit under the gears' rod. Where they will be resting, there are connectors that make the gears turn with the rod. This will make the track bump up and down and possibly put stress on the motors.

You can fix that by putting the motor/gear attachment under the lift, not directly on the track. If you want to.
