The Scrambler is finished. The T-20 transplant is a success the patient survived.

Very cool. Will we see it at the rodeo next month Jersey?

I hope to be there, might even have the springer with me. Did a couple of hot laps around the house. The scrambler loves to power slide on the grass. It's a little smokey but not tuned yet.
Looks like you did a nice job of shoe-horning the transmission in there. Looking forward to seeing the thing up close and personal!
Philipsburg?
Stuck in the seventies- not in the swamp.

Looks like you did great job putting that t20 in there. Did it fit easily or did you run into any problems?
The fit is better than with the original scrambler trans. The Polaris clutch on the trans saves alot of space and keeps the chain interference to a minimum. There is room now for a larger engine. The trans and engine are on a movable subframe similar to the original so you don't need idlers to adjust the jackshaft or center wheel drive chains.
I will post better pics and video this weekend.
Great job Marc. Please do post some more pictures I'm interested in the details.
Oh absolutely post more pics man....that must have been quite a project to transplant that T20...
I would love to take a 6x and make a 8x8....being a fiberglass tub..that part is simple....it would be getting the axles and rest of the driveline that would be difficult.
If I had or find another muscateer...I may just do that!....chances are slim to none so it is a matter of finding an 8x and purchasing it

Looks nice, Marc. I know last time you were at Philipsburg, your were having problems with the original Tranny. Bet it runs great now! Hope too see you there!!!
The weather today prevented any driving "Project X" but here is a couple of photos of the trans setup
