@Fearlessfront my neighbor has a 20hp craftsman with messed up steering and it dosent mow. thought about buying it and doing this with it. its a 1980's or early 90's model. im just a cheap bastard that dosent want to fork over the cash for a 4wheeler.
@Fearlessfront bst part is its like a home made gokart made of scrap. its easy to fix ,and find parts for and easy to mod. hell you can make a mad max style one if you want!!
Hey OMG thats awesome! I didn't think you could run those machines in the snow.The dog was havin almost as much fun as you guys.Keep the vids coming...kick up that snow!
j/k, I got a junk atv frame with front tires still on it. I basicly pulled the front hubs off, punched the bearings out, and welded the hubs on center on the axle... Well thats the simplified version.
Another awsome video! Back north i used to take my stock 84 dynamark out in the snow sometimes- did okay- till i took it out in a foot of snow once- had to push that thing the whole way.
Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how they go in deeper powder. As it was, we were draggin trannys through snow. (that sounds just wrong, lol) It wasn't the traction that was a problem, it was the steering. You can only really steer half the time, but you can powerslide or drift it to make up for it... Sometimes... lol
I wonder how well my 12hp rear engine Snapper would do in that lol

@ShawnCFarm I thought about that, could be interesting! U should do a vid of that when you do it!
Fearlessfront 7 months ago
@Fearlessfront I've got the tracks on it now, will have to wait for the snow to put the ski's on it, but could still test fit them I gess.
ShawnCFarm 7 months ago
damn id give it 3-4 more inches of snow and you will almost need tires with bigger treads lol. looks fun by the way :)

you should make a tractor that has tandem drive axles in the rear and then make a set of tracks for it, it would prolly be a beast in the snow

I swear every time I turn around, he's right there... I almost ran him over at 2:00 lol! I think he likes the snow that flys off the rear tires.
Fearlessfront 2 years ago
Oh haha! Scary, but it wouldn't think it would hurt him that bad. Probably get up and shake himself off.

Hmm.... really wantto have my build done soon! There's so much to do to the thing though!
Glad you still got some mud left. Snow is raelly fun, but IMO you can't beat mudding... in mud. Not snow, never really tried.... snud... though.
That locked dif must really help though.
Great stuff guys!
CSAKvids 2 years ago
The ground hasn't really frozen yet, so anything thats melts is more mud!
And if we weren't locked, we'd be doing more pushing then riding.. And we deffinetly wouldn't be making it up those hills!
Fearlessfront 2 years ago
Yeah, dunno if you can tell, but Im definatly really steering towards that locked diff. The pros more than make up for the cons.
