Well guys, here's an update:
I have gotten the frame ready for sandblasting. I used a wire wheel on an angle grinder on a few questionable areas, and luckily, it wasn't rusted through. I believe...
A redneck parking brake....Richard Clark will probably sell me one for $65 plus shipping...haha. I like the idea; I will be doing the same. Stonewall, those are some pretty heavy duty lateral and...
Well, the frame MAY be salvageable. I have a friend who used to be a fabricator, and he stopped by for a visit yesterday. After looking over my frame, he believes that it would be OK with some...
Mike, thanks for the encouragement.
Clevernickname, I appreciate the pointers, and that will certainly make everythig a lot easier, especially drilling the holes for the outer bearings and bolts. ...
Well the frame is out, and the verdict is in: the frame is too rusty to save. My friend and I are going to fab up a new frame for it; it looks pretty simple, just some C channel and square stock...
Here are a couple of pics. One is of the sticker next to the choke knob; I had to color it with a pencil to make the writing stand out, but you can see "930-HK". I'm guessing this means I have a...
No luck on the sticker due to poor lighting. The disassembly is chugging along slowly but surely; I have all the RH axles out, now for the LH. I'm hoping to lift the frame out this weekend.
Stonewall that's an excellent idea! Simple, yet effective.
Turtle I don't have any plans of running tracks; I believe my best bet for this Tennessee Mud is to just go with some BFT's (Big...
I was considering these tires: Golf Cart Tires Swamp Fox , but I believe a 22" would be a little small for some of the stuff I'm wanting to ride through. I have wished mine was 4 lug axles as well,...
That makes sense to me.
I have read a few posts about people going from 21x11x8 tires to sizes up to 25". I'm guessing this will work on mine? There doesn't seem to be a lot of clearance, though. I'll have to replace my...
I'm pretty sure there is a way to coax 2hp out of a K341...
Haha yeah we'll call it even. How capable would it be with the original 16hp? The PO still has the original engine; he removed it to power a welder, but never did.
The original engine is yellow, so it could be the K341. What was the HP rating on that? I would like to run around 18hp. Here are a few more pics of the shift linkage, as well as the broken axle. ...
Well I am officially a 6x6 owner as of today. I picked up this project for $100, and had to drive about an hour to get it. It has no engine, one broken axle (Right Rear), and a bad case of rusty...
