Use it in my 18hp vanguard for a few years now, no problems yet.
I have been thinking about doing the same thing as you. I have a spare Bigfoot tub as well. I think the tub would hold together ok. I was thinking of leaving the middle axles in there and plugging...
Yep, I tried a while ago but they wanted way to much personal info imo.....gotta draw the line somewhere. :dontknow:
@RD, 3000 hours, wow! Mine should last a lifetime! A lot of machines for sale in Alberta with around 900-1000 hours on em. Totally trashed, seems like the rental company's do very minimal maint on em...
I've got an 06 Bigfoot, when I bought it, it had the rawhide III's on it. They did alright in the water I thought, until I traded them for the newer high lug Argo style tires. They came off of an...
secondary clutch is quite easy to rebuild, i have taken it apart a few times out in the field already. keep having problems with the bushing, clutch dont want to shift back down when hittin a mud...

one of my not so favorite memories picture. got caught out on the trapline last Oct with over a foot of wet snow in 20 miles of muskeg. made it just over halfway out till we gave up @ 3:00am. spent...
i used to have the rawhide III's on my bigfoot, they where pretty good i thought. now i traded them with a guy who needed tires a little bit smaller for his tracks, so in trade for them i got the 25x...
yep, u need to get the 22" tires, just bought a set of tracks for my bigfoot as well. i already purchased the smaller wheels earlier. another thing to remember is the bigfoot wheelbase is a little...

i run a bigfoot up here, its ok but an 8 wheel would be better forsure. Finally bought some tracks, that will make a big difference.
last fall me and another guy got caught in the bush when we got...
i wouldnt go with out it. even with a skidplate the belly on my bigfoot caves in when jumping stumps. Your machine may be 11 years old, but 124 hrs is like new in my books! hasnt seen alot of use...
my bigfoot has a built in "to steep to climb" sputter sensor built into the carb, so.... i cant even climb a steep hill if i want to! can be very frusterating when ure just cresting the steep part...
just to clear things up, i took the clutch off and discovered the bushing on the inside sheave was toast:hence the loud noises. The belt was making all the unwanted noise because of the one sheave...
make sure u put that "spare" inner bearing in ur tool box Mr Summit, this time i might need it:argue: :D
i just bought the machine (50 hrs ago) so i cant really tell. i take it there is no oil up there when the machine is idling? dont think there is any play in it, think iall go for a while yet, see...
my bigfoot has about 350 hrs on it and iam startin to here a "new" whine from my transmission. took the belt off and gave the clutch a spin, sounds like the clutch bearing is goin kinda...
i got 25" rawhide III tires on my machine, they seem to do quite well in water although i havnt compared them with other tire brands
just got back from fishing trip (100kms) and yes those bigfoots are hard on the back! i gotta do something with my seat to. i noticed the Conquest with tracks was alot smother but it had a hard time...
