It seems that a lot of people don't know what they are getting into buying an amphibious machine. They are GENNERALY high maintenance equipment. with the price of parts and high labour costs , you...

The cup seal definatly worked fine. Hercules pt no. HRU12-0.50-12. It is a US-80NBR(80a Buna-n rubber compound)-1/2x3/4x1/8. $5 bucks for the pair-got two just in case. Because I am using dot 5 brake...

Switched hoses on the calipers and came to the conclusion it was the master. Took it apart and could see where the seal was worn. Had to be some debris of some sort. The only place I could get a seal...

Thanks for the reply. Pads installed correctly. Happened after I pulled the tranny and installed new chains. Cleaned everything down with brake clean. I guess I will try to bleed them again if not...

05 Bigfoot. New pads. new dot 5 fluid, bled out. The left side brakes with a light touch, the right side doesn't want to brake except with brute force and an actual jerk on the handle bars to get it...

Depends on your budget and the maintenance factor on what is the best bearings to use. NTN are up there in quality but also in price RBL (Ringball) are midrange offshore bearings and chain which...

I honestly think that the engineering department should have to learn how to repair the machine after they design it. On their time. But to get back to your problem, I have read about this before...

You should be getting 13 or so volts DC to the battery. You should not be getting AC current to the battery at all. Sounds like a bad voltage regulator/rectifer. Or some bad wiring. Don't know...

Once I got the 98 up and running, I decided to put the 92 up for sale. Make long story short, I ended up selling both units to the same gentleman, and they are in their new home in Nova Scotia....

Nice. That machine is pretty much new. Once the cobwebs are cleaned out of it's system from sitting for so long, you will have plenty of fun. As far as tracks go, as long as you are looking for them,...

So after I got the parts from NCT, I ended up with a newer (98) Vanguard 2. Hopefully sometime next week I will be able to take it for a ride. Came in a lot of parts so the challenge is reassembly....

Final note on the steering upgrade. NCT reached out with an offer on some parts. We made a deal and the gentleman overdid himself in generosity. He set the parts requested but also added a care...

Had an 83? 6x6 with the Techumseh. Engine was completely baffled out. Replaced it with a Kohler magnum 18. It was an interesting project to say the least. Can't say I would advise it. Probably would...

I know about arthritis. Some days I can make a fist, other days can't hold anything in my hand. I feel for ya. Try a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water once a day. Seems to help...

I have owned the Argo for a couple years now and could never get my wife to go for a ride(probably remembers the first one) but she wanted some birch branches to make some sort of display and I told...

AS ARGOJIM said with a heat gun to bring out the oil to restore the colour works good. You may want to try it in a spot that doesn't show. You can overdo it. Especially if the rest of the unit is...

There are a lot of people who may periodicaly visit the site, such as myself, who have either gotten busy or may have not been able to get out to ride because of different circumstances and maybe...

Couple of years ago a fella in Kitchener Ont had an Argo advertised converted to a battery powered unit. Wanted to go have a look at but apperently he sold it so I lost my chance.

You could wire it into the ignition so when the key is in the run position the pump works. Eliminates the pump switch.

If I had hydraulic brakes already, I defiantly would try to convert to handlebar steering.......just to see if I could do it. To try to do it with standard old style brakes, well, that is just too...
