I have a 88 argo 8 wheeler with the Kohler 17hp. The full set of tracks was way to much drag on the engine, just not enough jam.

I spilt the tracks (plastic) and half tracked it. Put them on...

good idea, I joined

I was given an old tranny. I believe its out of a 6x6 but I don't have the Serial number off the body to look this one up.

Tranny is stamped 17230 HR

It feels like its a two gear ( fwd and...

I binned the parts, they didn't seem photo worthy.

Doh

It only takes me 15 mins to make a cable when I'm in the shop, but to break a cable every third ride had me thinking something else was...

I thought about going that way, I just wasn't sure if thumb fatigue would be an issue, we usually ride for 4hrs at a time. Or if their would be interaction between the throttle and steering actions....

So I have gone through 3 throttle cables and the last two only lasted about 10hrs each. early 80's argo KB, with a Kohler 17hp. I upgraded the plastic twist grip to the new one, as the original part...

OK good thread. Here is my question.

I ride mainly fall and winter. what low temp grease are you using? I often go to -15C possibly lower.

Thanks

I was going to go front left hand side below the clutch's I have some space there that is begging and accessory. Keep in mind I have an old KB Model Argo.

My thought was to mount a coffee can a bit bigger then the pump with screened holes in the tub. then just throw the bilge pump in. Thoughts?

And that is exactly where I'm at. I was thinking that the teeth have lots of meat on em. I dressed out the burrs and rough edges with a fine file and hoped for the best.

Good news is parts are...

Ok just an update incase others are having a similar issue

Split the transmission last night, and as suspected its time to start changing out some gears.


The input shaft has some wear on the...

Where did you get a great deal on the 25hp? Sorry I can't help answer your questions, I'm still in the planning stages

If only there was a use for all these beer cans!

Ya I have two of those in the basement 100w'ers. We use em on everything. My Truck has em on oil pan and tranny, and I'd like to put a couple lil ones on the diffs.

I didn't think I'd get a...

yeah I do that with the sleds, I just wasn't sure that block of iron would absorb much heat.

What do you guys do? I try to keep my machine indoors, but on occasion it has to be outside. Its -30C tonight, and I'm thinking I'll install an oil pan heater. Although it means pulling the engine...

I ordered gaskets and gears from our local argo dealer. I have one of the early transmissions (CHK Series) and was scared parts wouldn't be available. I didn't really like the price but what I...

Follow the manual. Its very straight forward. Check you transmission model number before you start. Order a gasket, oil seals, and blanking plates before you start. The tranny was my first argo...

Ok guys, my tranny is not liking reverse. I was popping out of gear before, but now it doesn't seem to be going in at all and if it does it pops right out at the first application of power. CHK...
