Great video allwheeldrive! Loved seeing the Coot keep up with the Rubicon and highly modded Toyota. I think that your Coot is awesome and I wish I could meet you at the riding spot to compare your Coot to mine.
It looks like you took a pounding over some of that terrain. I've always thought my Coot needed some kind of suspension, maybe just a cheap coil over would help with the ride or maybe just a seat mounted on an air suspension mount would work. I always feel like I've been bucked off a horse after driving my Coot. Have you thought that way? Seeing both the Rubicon and Toyota flex their suspensions really has got me thinking. What psi were you running in the tires? I've found that if I drop mine to 7 psi I can still go without losing a bead, and the tires will pull me up wet rocky terrain.
Are you running the stock disc on the tranny? I need to upgrade mine as I've never been satisfied with braking.
p.s.:
I also enjoyed your videos on the Quadtractor! What an awesome machine that is. Too bad they didn't become a market success way back when. Looks like it would be easy to copy the design and make a modern version with either hydraulic or electric power. Again, maybe with some kind of suspension to articulate. I like the simple design though. Did you do anything with the steering system? From what I recall they were ropes and pulleys.
