- Sweet! How you gonna do the shifter linkage?
I am not 100% but I am pretty sure I am just going to weld a tab where the current shifter is and use another one further up, which will have some kind of push pull action. I might put the shifter under the seat or somewhere else that doesn't hang outa mile like the stock.. | |

- Yeah I had a problem with belt sag and belt flapping on my Westwood, solved it by putting an idler along the belt, which keeps the belt tensioned in the middle. How are you modding the rims?
I just did the ol' cut the center out of a 8" rim and weld it inside the 12" rim. | |

- I just watched @Camdg2010youtube videos on his homemade gators almost identical to this using craftsman frames. He used a FF idea and used the deck height lever for a slap shifter. The linkage looked really simple to fabricate.
Ill have to check that out, I have a hydro axle so I think it will be easier... I did rip out my deck lever so I could move all the wiring under the gas tank.. The kohler engines have more wires/relays and such... I still want to use the factory ignition switch with it, and I will have the battery under the seat or something. | |

| oooOOO no did some work on the wiring, and mounted the rear tires!! front tires are just rollers for now... Got to do some more frame stiffening has a bit of flex to it, but i need some tube on it anyway to mount the seat etc..... anyway as you can see I got some 12" rims from a scotts tractor and just mounted up the 25's! | |

- So you found 12" rims for 3/4" keyed shaft after all? nice.
Do you have any design ideas for the bed? yeah they are from a scotts mower... anyway the bed i have is a trailer, so I am just going to use a pillow block so that I can tilt it back. It is going to be manual lift, no fancy stuff.... | |

- I like the simplicity hood.
Are you going to raise the seat up or make it a lowrider? Haha I have a donor simplicity I want to pull the running boards off & the seat mount.. then decide how much tube I am going to need to mount the bed. So its just sitting there for now, I want to put a removable seat in the bed so that two people can ride around the property in it. | |
