| I just got this mower no engine so I put a 18hp oposed twin in it I love these moters. I have 30'' truck snow tires that I am going to put on it they are on doul rims and are going on the back the curent ag tires that are on the back of it now are going on the front yes that means 6 tires. The only down side to this all is that it is a hydro so I dont want speed but thinking of finding a suburban trany somewere. It is a 616 allis any Ideas let me know. | |

| I put a winch in the body and cut a hole for the steel cord to come out of it is a rear winch I took the back truck tires off so I could drive it till I got a welder rounded up to do the front they come off and I can swich them back with a C clip. Need to find a welder to barow for my rack and front axel. Tomarow is a new month s photo bucket will let me put 5 more photos on here.

What I do is open pics from your album 'in a new tab / window" then "copy image location" (with Firefox) and then insert image on the board. I'm pretty sure anyone can see them as long as they ar not set to private. If you can see my pics, they are all from facebook. | |

| I use Flickr thru Yahoo - free and can post as many pics as y want.
I plan on doing a 4x4 setup sometime still to my agway - using a noma rear steer transmission would work easiest up front, ill end up fabricating the steering stuff my self. | |

| Subject: found the limit to this big beast to day March 26th 2012, 8:05 pm | |
| My Ford truck decided that its fuel pump was going to stop working so in order to get it to the concreat pad that I work on I thought that I would pull it my dads 350 honda wouldn't tuch it it just spat at me. So I put my mower on there and with some weele poping power I got it there all my dad could do is sit there with his jaw droped. I told him to never under estemate my mower again!!! By the way I only am able to work on one mower at a time because I need one all the time so this one is being used for daily work till the racer is done witch is cosing some dificaltys. | |

| Well after a summer job working 7am to 9pm I have been getting some time on the beast this last week now that school has started again. When I started a week ago it was back in its stock condition with a now blown hydro. So I welded a Peerless spiders and put her under it. I already had that from a racing mower that I had. I striped all the hood, fenders and runing boards and I am going to paint them need Ideas for collor. Striped the motor off and the rest of the dash and stuff painted the frame. Looks nice. Cleaned up and painted the motor looks like new!!
Yet to do. Get a new belt and cluch going I am going to try an electric cluch any ideas or anyone tryed this yet... Get tires set up. Paint the fenders and stuff. Get a gas peddle hooked up. New muffler looking for ideas. Was thinking strait pipes. Probably more to.
IF I DON'T GET ANY RESPOSE I WONT POST IT JUST TAKES UP MY TIME AND I DON'T SEEM TO GET ANY THING BUT NEGATIVE REAPLYS. | |

| I like the look of this beast. It reminds me of an old Dynamark. Were those back tires stock? I'd like to have a set for the front of my mower. Btw, you don't have to use photobucket or anything to host pics on here. Theres a little icon above the text box you can click when posting a reply and you can host the pics and copy and paste the links. | |

| well guys I need to get some pictures up but I have all the body done and it runs I think I might like the electric cluch I went ahead and through it on there just to try it. I took it for a test drive and it is geared about right but I bent my front end because I took the suport out and didn't fix it and I am out of welding wire so I am at a stand still.
Things yet to to
purcas some bear claw tires make hubs for rear fix my now bent front end and last but not least build my atv rack. what do you guys think about using rebar I will be getting pictures updated in a day or two but it is such a long proses to do it

| Keep an eye on craigslist or in local paper and flea markets , even check local restore - should be able to get a set of tires cheeper then buying new .
Id been looking for a while for a set of ATV wheels, bot 2 tires and two rims on ebay for around $40 - then found 2 wolley boogers for $20 at a flea market , then my nephew had a freind that was selling a tractor and a dozen atv tires, some even with rims - $50.
Might not find exactally what y want, but you could either use them, or resell them - specially if theyre cheep enough. | |
