Hi johnnova, welcome to the site. Have fun with your max ii.

[islandheat]

Hello everyone, we have a max 2 with a 14 hp motor ( need more HP) as they say no replacement for displacement. It is a blast to ride and looking forward to trail riding. I just would like to say thanks to all of you for the info here at 6x6 World that has been posted as this has been a great tool for putting this machine back in action. Had quite a few things wrong from gear oil in t 20 trans to broken brake levers on trans. Now it seams very dependable that all repairs are done.

Welcome islandheat. More hp is always nice. An easy upgrade is to throw a 16 hp carb on that 14 and take the restricted tabs out. There are some threads about it on here. But the 14 and 16 are basically the same engine.

I am a motor nut already done the carb and restrictors in exhaust, I am looking for power and not speed - maybe gear change if possible as I am not sure if the max 4 uses same gear ratios - now I am on the look out for a bigger motor - here in middle TN I need it to go up and down hills - originally I was in SW FL for many years it would of been nice to have the max 2 down there playing in the Everglades.

A t-20 has output sprockets with 15 teeth. Your MaxII should have mating sprockets on the jackshaft with 27 teeth. A MaxIV has sprockets with 34 teeth, but usually has 26" tires too. A briggs 23hp would do wonders for your MaxII. There really is no need for more, but it is FUN

Mick from NSW Australia- always wanted to start on a 6x6 project, going through the motions and researching the plans available at the moment- not much out there that people are happy with from what I can gather!

Nevermind, something will pop up.

I want/need (who knows!) a 6x6 or even an 8x8 for lugging firewood on a bush block, I don't want to compact the trails and I don't want to make them full vehicle width either so I thought an atv would be a good choice.

From the look of it most here are amphibious, which is great fun- but where we are there's not much water so just an atv would probably suffice.

Anyway I look forward to trawling through the forum and hopefully finding a good plan to start building from.

Cheers- Mick

Hi Mick, welcome to the site. Good luck in your search for a project.

Hi, I'm the new owner of a beat up Lockley Wrangler and I ran across y'alls forum while researching these critters on the net. I have started putting it back into runnable condition but it needs some parts and a lot of love. And I need more knowledge. Being a retired motorcycle mechanic with a past heavily into restoring oddball sh*t this ain't my first rodeo but it is my first Wrangler ;-) I hope somebody here will take the time to pass on a little of their knowledge and experience with these vehicles and who knows, I might be able to return the favor from my vast knowledge of oddball things :-)
Thanks
LilBill

Hi LilBill, welcome to 6x6 World. There are a couple of Lockley owners here on the site so they may be able to help here and there. Have fun with your restoration.
