Jeremiah's Lifted General Lee Mud-Terrain Tractor [2019 Build-Off Entry] *

U could easily machine yourself some outta brass....

McMaster.com Measure up what you got and search around there.

@SebastianAlbrecht I don't think I could.

Those spindles are 3/4 I take it? Just some 3/4 in I.D. and It looks like those could be 5/8 in O.D. bushings. Good thing you tore into the axle and found those where broken.

@Offroad MudMowers yeah I'm glad I did too. Thanks for the help last night.

@Crazy_Carl I did get all of the measurements of the spindle bushings and pivot bushings since there not the same. I'll see what I can find. Ty!

No problem. Hope you can get this sorted out lol!

Finally I can start welding. After working on the generator it finally runs. I've had the welder and all the tools since September. Adapter for the generator to the welder finally came in the mail couple days ago. The three key components is now ready to be used.

Excellent! Good luck!

@MightyRaze good luck to you too. Whoops I forgot that the photos lol.

Excellent! Aways nice to be able to do some burning in, haha.

@AllisKidD21 indeed it is.

SWEET!!!
Welder looks good!

@SebastianAlbrecht let's just hope I can learn how to weld somewhat okay.

if I R not such a noob like me, U will learn it pretty quickly! U need very good ground, find the right AMPs & clean the welding area pretty well I wirewheel the areas cuz dirty crap won't weld nice & doesnt hold for long!

Even with clean surface my welds dont hold up LOL

Air box cover rubber seal has came in. Old one way stretched. This one seams to be thicker and strong but the old one must have been thin because of its age. @Crazy_Carl what kind of condition is yours in? It took a while to track this one down. Yours is older than mine so it might be in the same condition as mine was.

The rubber on mine isn't too bad. It's kinda twisted so it takes some finesse to get it in the groove just right to get the air cleaner cover back on.

@Crazy_Carl okay just checking cuz I can give you a link. I typed in the search bar so many different ways it finally came up after hours and days LOL

yeah that's not how I look up parts. I go to partstree.com which has parts lists for a lot like Kohler Engines and Wheel Horse stuff. Then I copy and paste the P/N into ebay.com

@Crazy_Carl I use Jake's engines online. Then I paste the name and model number in to eBay and buy it that way. The one problem I have was eBay and Jake's gmengines did not show a photo of it so I took a risk and bought it and it was the correct part. it's extremely hard to find a part when you don't even know what it's called. Had to type it all these keywords until you finally come up with something.

Well I have found a MST 206 for 40$ 15 minutes away but 5 minutes ago I seen a Murray garden tractor. Wee all know what comes in them. I'm gonna ask about it later this week. It's sitting out in front of a car/atv/mower shop

[adm]Please update your Build. It has been a while since we heard from you! [/adm]

I got some parts quads. The big thing is the rims on this 1985 Yamaha Moto4 200. It has 22x12x8 and 22x7x10 tires on it. I'd like to run these rims with rear 22x12.50x8 and front 22x9x10 Interco Super Swamper TSL ATV tires. Also I'm thinking about using the atv front axle and steering. Theres no suspension on this quad which is a great thing since I wanted to build a soled front axle like doc sprocket did on mule 1.

Picked this up a few weeks ago. 2002 Murray Widebody GT 21hp/46". It has a b&s 21hp Vtwin and a peerless 820. Both are going in the Jacobsen. Actually there both in it right now.

Picked up a 2002 Murray Widebody GT 21hp/46" for $65. The V-Twin is missing both coils and a starter. I'm going to see if I can get it to fit under the hood but I dont think it will. It's just so tiny. I wish it was a Jacobsen Homelite YT__.

They came with hood extensions for the oppys. Also the murray has a peerless 820 big boy. So pumped about that. Been searching for one since 2016. Took long enough lol. Jacobsen will be very happy with that transaxle.

I love the body on the Murray. Might keep the hood, dash, and finders for a racer. Eventually a racer build.
