Hi, My name is Vince, I own a Argo Conquest 8X8, I bought it 2 months ago, so I am really a newbie. I use it to go fishing with the kids and moose hunting in october.

Hi Vince, welcome to the site. I said this on your other post but I'll say it here too, great looking Conquest.

Hi there! I bought an old 4 seater Scrambler several months ago; after the wife discovered it hidden behind the barn I decided to go head and restore it. Bought an old cast iron 12hp Kohler for it, but need to restore the brake system first. Would anyone know where I can get replacement brake pads? If anyone else has a Scrambler sure would like to know more about the Scrambler and its capabilities compaired to other amphibious 6x6 Atvs. Thanks

Hi Clark1955 and scramblernewbie, welcome to the forum.

Clark, there are a couple of members that have Sears Sportsters. Try searching the site and see if yours looks like theirs. Here is thebuggyman1's:


scramblernewbie, try searching the site as well. There are several posts on Scramblers that may be able to help you out. If not, try starting a new thread in the "Other AATV" section of the site. Good luck with the restoration.

Hi scramblernewbie,
Tip#1) Learn to hide your projects better...maybe under a tarp, or like I do: under a cardboard box covering labeled "cooking and cleaning supplies". Projects are safe for years.

As for capabilities, scramblers rarely had reverse, and when they did it was a weak electric motor. 12hp is awful light, 16+ is more the norm.
Some members have put t-20 transmissions in their scramblers to really improve the performance. Here is some recent talk on doing that. http://www.6x6world.com/forums/wante...tml#post145133
