That's awesome. I'm going to guess it was either Jay or Matt if it was a younger (under ~35) guy, or maybe Glen if it was an older guy. We got the big tires because it wasn't working well with those...

Wow, talk about small world. I tried to send you a PM but your box was full. Did you pick them up in North Bay or New Liskard? Did the guy own a drill contractor, or a company that makes drills. Or...
Awesome. I'll be looking into that if I decide to go with more lights and/or a thumping sound system.
I'm mostly kidding about the stereo...
I must make a fancy sign of this and post it at work. One day people might learn.
It helps a lot to pull back on the sticks when you try to shift gears. Also helps having the idle as low as possible so that the clutch isn't engaging and spinning the transmission. Try pulling back...
Sort of related, is there a way to put a bigger battery/alternator on these things? I've thought about putting a couple of big ones on the work buggies but don't want to kill the electrical system.
Got a PM to update this thread with the outcome. First we stopped running with tracks. Just too much stress turning on sticky mud with them since the machine doesn't slide at all. We got all the new...
Nice looking tank, but it is hidden. If looks aren't too much of a concern could you fab something up using much cheaper materials? I'd be going the DIY route. At least until it leaked everywhere and...
Thanks for the info. At first we thought uh-oh, but then started to wonder if that was how it should be. Figured it would be easiest to ask the board and use the massive resource of knowledge we have...
At lunch today my coworkers and I were chatting about making a full hydraulic 6x6 and bypassing the T-20. Anyone ever done this? Our hydraulic mechanic/fabricator figures it would be fairly simple,...
Have 4 total at my work site, of which 3 are running. Generally called the buggies until something breaks and then it is whatever stream of profanities we can come up with.
Hi All,
So while digging around in our Max VI trying to get the belt squeal to calm down a bit while going up big hills we noticed that where the motor "table" legs mount to the frame looks bent....

We have 2 Buffalo's and 2 VI's at my site, but one buffalo has basically been stripped for parts so we just swapped out the tranny from that one. We learned a lot in the first couple of months of...
And, as msafi65 said, don't forget the positrack. You will not want to drive it if you do. Sure, it still works but it is loud as anything.
Lock washers, as mentioned above, should be good enough. Just keep a couple of wrenches in your tool kit (you have one in there right?) in case you have to tighten them up a bit while riding.
Just keep in mind that if you get the standard MAX tracks you'll have to run the stock 21 inch tires otherwise they won't fit. I like the idea listed of making your own from used sled tracks. Also,...
Yep, looking for the exploded parts diagram. A couple of us here at site filled out their online contact form independent of each other earlier today. Problem with calling is the massive time change...
Hi All,
Trying to find a parts list for a Buffalo, but all I can find online is one for the VI. Anyone have a link or file they could send me? I've also emailed MAX but figured that it never hurts...
Thanks for the positive review. Couldn't find them from our Australian supplier of stuff like that and ended up going with Kenda Bear Claws. They look to be the most aggressive we can find, and with...
