So where does this kid get a gx620 anyway? I can't find motors like that for any price around here!

@Ifitaintbroke my buddy's dad was into small engine repair so he had all kinds of stuff laying around and after he passed away he put everything up for sale and I picked up the engine for $100

Coming to think of it he's the same guy I got this tractor from cheers

I found some time in between rebuilding a house, My birthday, and helping my aunt and uncle to start disassembling my $25 Polaris for parts I changed my mind about rack and pinion and I'm going to use the steering components to do kind of a wheel horse style steering

I don't know if this will work

Subject: Re: [24] RKP'S "BUCKSHOT" September 17th 2024, 2:12 am

Ok my brain isn't working is a 8in to a 4in pulley a good combo?

Okay quick update I did some research and I figured out what @RichieRichOverdrive meant by wicked fast so I'm going to go with a nine and a seven cheers

Also went ahead and scrapped my steering and went with a golf cart steering rack I also pulled the front U-joints off of a Polaris 400 so it's safe to say my steering is pretty beefy

What do y'all think about my floorboards?

Subject: Re: [24] RKP'S "BUCKSHOT" October 4th 2024, 7:17 pm

Looks good. You should add some tree kickers to them to deflect stuff away from the tire.

@RichieRichOverdrive I think tree kickers are soon to come

Heres a couple random pics, I'm working on Belt wraps and I'm kind of liking this color scheme for the rims

Subject: Re: [24] RKP'S "BUCKSHOT" November 5th 2024, 3:00 pm

I've also made a gas pedal, a custom clutch system, finished up the steering, did a full fluids change, put new heads on the engine, I finished the front trailer spindles, I put a Murray seat and mount, I finished the front bumper, I put an electric fuel pump on but I don't know if that's going to stay

Subject: Re: [24] RKP'S "BUCKSHOT" November 5th 2024, 11:05 pm

Looking good! Belt definitely isnt coming off those idlers!

There's about to be a pic I forgot to mention I put in hydraulic brakes (yes they are welded to the mower) I put in a cast iron front axle, and also I'm really proud of how my gas pedal turned out
