hi i just picked up a 70 terra tiger tt18 serial #5722 in good shape i was told it was all stock but i dont think so, they said it was orderd with a twin cyl and elec start. motor is a rotex 339.2 cc according to plate on motor.from what im seeing the sterring has been alterd, it has throttle riged on the sterring wheel. i now that was not right but did the ever have a steering wheel this does, and also to operate it its gas and go ,to steer its turning the wheel r or left but to stop yo turn wheel all the way to right or left to brake.im gonna post pics if i can any response whould be apreciated thanx in advance steve. i tried to attach pig but ther in jpeg format not url how do ya post pic also

We sold them ( terra tigers) new and no 2 cylinder engines were optional or available in them. TT18's had JLO 295 single cylinder in them. And all had tiller - T bar for steering. No steering wheels. I would take steering wheel off and put T back on so you can have brake on left and throttle on right to control it easier. Good luck with it.

what was the differance of the tt10 and the tt18 .and also i posted a few pics thats how i seen it to buy ther in the gallery .the rear lights are a screw up i take it. they would be above the water line from the factory i whould think any idie were to find a shop manual for one of these .

there were 3 differences., AXLES, went from "pin " sprocket" to wood ruff keys,,,, body was slightly different molded...(weight distrabution). and a few other changes

are the terra tigers a descent machine overall whats the week link on them that i need to address

[farmtoybuilder]

Weak link steering clutches with big motors And what most don't like is no reverse! If they would have had reverse it would have helped sales of them. Use good high quality chain and keep tension adjusted especially on front jackshaft ones! TT 18's have keyed sprockets so you don't break pins like TT 10's do when worn. They require maintenance like any other 6-8 wheeler.

looks like a nice project mabe with a little igenuity you could put something in to give it reverse now that would be cool
