I am so sorry to hear of Rogers passing. It truly is a sad day for the AATV crowd. I rode with Roger several times at Haspin and he was one of the top jockeys of these machines. His ability to make...

I Talked to a friend of mine who is a machinist at Jeep about various types of bolts to use on my maxII. When I suggested to him that I was thinking about using grade 8 he said that that would not be...
Hi Lance,
I have a dumb question. What is the difference between the older RIM and a MAX IV. They appear to be very similar to me. Are the parts between the two machines interchangable?
P.S. See...
One other problem regarding bearing failure is the tendency to over grease the bearing. It is very important not to grease the bearing to the point grease starts to ooze from the outer seal. When...
Rainwater,
The restriction regarding 6x6's and 8x8's regardless of who makes them is not the wheelbase. The regulation refers to the width. All of the 6x6's and 8x8's that I am aware of are more...
Country,
I can't give you an answer regarding your Argo but I can give you an idea of what happened when I put synthetic fluid in my Max T20 . I had the same idea you have regarding heat. However it...
Hi Matt,
I was wondering if your you could post a sales brochure on this website. If you have one it sure would answer a lot of questions eveyone has. Are these available for sale yet? .
Bw6,
Awsome remake. You must have a ton of hours in this rebuild. I espescially like the propeller setup using angle gear drives. I was just thinking about this sort of setup the other day and...
Hey Roger.
Do you think with the engine mods you've made to the Argo that the fuel economy has gone up or down. Your machine runs really good. People would never know that that is basically an 18 hp...
Ya fuel prices suck. I had to cancel my Ledges trip this year because of it. I have had to curtail a lot of my driving plans this year. I don't have an answer to it but I don't see conservation...
I replaced my maxII bearings 3 years ago. I went with a bearing from NAPA.They have two types. Go with the more expensive bearing as it has a better seal. I have not had any bearing problems since...
Keith,
Check out the NADA website. You will find a listing for atvs under the recreational vehicle listing. They give values for both ARGO and MAX. It might take a little searching but it's there.
Hi Roger,
Regarding your oil comment. I also read some where that the zinc content has been reduced as you indicated. I talked to a friend of mine at the local NAPA store about this. He said the...
Cory thats got to be a great place to enjoy these machines. There is another fella that lives in Alaska but not sure where. He goes by Bubba Hunt. He has a hydro-traxx and some of his expereinces are...
Hi guys.
I live in Petersburg , down by Toledo, in the southeastern part of michigan. I have been to the Mounds. That would be a better place to ride a 6-8 wheel aatv. Don't try to go to Silver...

What do you race? I used to own a 1993 Olds funny car with a 526 cu. hemi.
Come on Matt. Show us the goodies and the details!!!! Pictures please, please, please with sugar on top!!
You can go to a Summitt racing catalogue and order a low pressure tire gauge. This is what I used when I was drag racing. Reads down to 1 psi.
Are we even sure this ride is going to take place? Last year there seemed to be some doubt as to a 2008 ride. Also same goes for me, I e-mailed Leo 2 days ago and no response.
I have a pair of paddle tires that I have used on a MAXII . It doesn't really make much of a difference. If you use them on the back axle you get more splash but that's all. If you run on dry ground...
