Jeepers Plott you're a sucker for punsihment.
Sorry folks I've been away from the 6x6 forum for awhile. Still haven't got my restoration completed but will be diving back into it in the near...
I'm so jealous.....Mine is under a tarp right now. I swear on my mother's grave it will get done though...
Are the hydraulic calipers an upgrade ? Mine still has the mechanical style.
Looking good Plott. My restoration job is on hold for a bit. Full steam ahead with trapping right now. My engine is back together and installed next is the carb linkage then fuel tank and lines then...

Would a narrower belt fix it ?
Unless it's already been restored you're looking at a money pit. Have a look at mine and Plott hound's re-build threads. These are early 1990's models and they required major work. Sieg's is a...
Nicely done.
You better hope the boss doesn't find this sight lol
Haven't seen one myself but is there a way you can tap into the front wheel axle hub as a mounting point by putting in a plate and longer bolts followed by an arm that extends out and a pivot point ?...
I have died and gone to heaven........Looking forward to seeing this project unfold. Nicely done.
