    3D Mesh != Jbeam

    You cannot use a 3D model and convert it into Jbeam, you won't get any good result like that.
    It will miss all the beams that makes sense physically. It's like using a fork to eat a soup.
    Aside the fact that you get a crazy amount of oddly placed nodes.

    Delete the JBeam you got, and make one using the official vehicles as example.
    The JBeam must make sense physically. That's why you don't use a 3D model, which mostly make sense only visually.


    You might also want to consider starting from something more simple (a prop?).
    Making a vehicle requires you to have somewhat good modding knowledge already, and it will end soon in tears and confusion if you don't.
