PostSubject: No Starter, Make a skid plate!!!   Simplicity 4208 Mud Mower Project - Page 2 Icon_minitimeMay 2nd 2014, 6:58 am
Well after the starter gear being toast I decided to start making a rough design of a skid plate out of some leftover light sheet metal.
What do you guys think?

Good start but you should make it go the full length of the frame so it dont just scoop up mud and water and get all in the belts.
