Murray off road build "The Stalker"

welp guys figured it be a good time to start new topic...Finally getting under way of my first muddying/trail mower...currently has a 12hp flat head 1 piece carb...peerless 834 soo peerless 800 series its a 6 speed and going with some 18" or 20"s out back and same as everyone else on the front ones like maine mudd mower has or neil which ever u prefer to call him by lol...going with a 1 to 1 ratio 5'' pulleys for now then after i ride it awhile i might run a little faster maybe a 6" to a 3" but that's later down the road...main build will consist of is pulley swapping decent paint job fog lights followed by the existing ones in the hood some decent tires out back and front for now...steering is flawless right now have nooo play in it so im ok for 15 mph speeds i reckon...but here are some pictures of my progress so far....<a href=[/img]" />

looken good man, it is hard to get those pulleys off. I don't worry about steering much on my murrays, mine is fine with a 6-3 (2:1 ratio, about 35 mph).

this mower is 84 and the steering in it is damn near like perfect,,,mtd is 93 handles like a nail in empty box lol steering is ok for now maybe later ill do something to but to get the feel for the mower and new speeds ill be ok also need to work on my brakes i have to stop lol or take a jump off the side either one

well finally bought a pulley and shes on next is the engine pulley which i have a 5" cast iron that i still have left from the holland so im going to use it lol forgot i had it until i found it today out in my parts bin
