NEW Argo owner with questions

[bearclaw46]

Roger S,
I take it that means where the chains traverse thru the machine right?? I'll probably keep the 2x4 as close to the frame as possible. I have a 2 ton floor jack.

Thanks
Dennis

LOL, yes that was mine. When we drove through the creek on the way in we had a load of plywood on the Argo (plenty of weigh to stick us to the bottom). On the way back out we were having trouble in the slush.

I have a bunch of clips there if your interested

Yeah Rock Doc, was wondering why you'd want to winch your way outa there, looked like you wouldn't have any problems but didn't know you had a load of wood.

Dennis,
I have a '96 Max IV with 20hp and the big tires, etc. I think there is some photos of it in the gallery! I live at the top of Shrock Road here in Wasilla. You can park and ride up here on Swiftwater Creek trail. Very muddy with lots of rocks and hills. I think the price is right on used Max's, and it doesn't sound like I am working on mine any more than Argo owners are.

AK Trail,

where's the Swiftwater Creek Trail at?? Or how do I get there?? Where do you park and unload?? Sounds like fun and close to boot.

Go to Church Road, on right from the Parks. Go all the way up till it ends. Turn left (Shrock) and cross bridge over Little Su. Veer right onto Sitze @ "Y", follow till end. Turn right at "t" and cross next little bridge, trail next left past "Swiftwater Creek" bridge. It is the dirt road between the green painted house and the Atco trailer. Parking is on left past two upright 4x4 poles as far as the power line.
