Hello everyone I am Christian! I recently dove down a rabbit hole watching OKOFFROADMOWERS and really enjoyed the idea of fabricating an off road mower. After just one night of watching all their videos I decided to scout my local marketplace for a body style that I wanted. I purchased a 1978-80 Sears Craftsman GT/14. I look forward to engaging with all of you and sharing my off road mower build in the future.

Welcome to the ATLTF!

You picked a good'n to build that's for sure! I have the same one wearing Roper badging and I've been calling it the Roper Offroader. If you want a manual for it look up a Sears 14/6, it's exactly the same.

*Edit* not exactly the same, the 14/6 has a 3 speed hi/low and the GT14 is 3 speed with VariDrive? That's crazyness!

My All Terrain Tractors:
- "The WarHorse" ~ 1984 Sears Craftsman LT(V)11 (MTD Built) (Romping in Progress!)
- Roper "Trailblazer" ~ 1986 Roper LT110CR (Trailblazing in Progress!)
- The "Mud Duck" ~ 1969 Bolens 1225 Hydro (2022 Build Off 2nd place!)
- The "Silver Bullet" ~ 1984 Sears Craftsman LT(V)11 (MTD Built) (Part 1)
- The "Silver Bullet" (Take 2) ~ 2024 Build Off entry (Work in progress)
- Roper "Offroadster" ~ 1979 Roper T4328 (Romping in Progress!)
- 1973 Massey Ferguson MF12 ~ (Sold to a good home)

@Brianator That is good news seems I have picked a more in depth starting mower, but I am up for the task. I may pick your brain on some knowledge and setup for your GT/14
