Wanted to start a new thread separate from the introduction/questions to help chronicle work done on Max II.
Spent last week waiting on parts, removed broken inner tube and replaced with a new one. The bead on tire was pretty roughed up, I think that was why PO installed tubes.
Replaced broken master link on front right sprocket chain, reinstalled and repair seems to be holding up. Unsure on age of chain, will continue to test and monitor.
Drained gear oil out of T20 transmission, replaced with ATF (Dex/Merc).
Installed new fuel line and filter
Replaced broken gas cap with new. No longer sprayed with gas when hitting bumps
Replaced stuck open starter relay with known good one. Still unable to start with key, need to go over wiring. Am able to start by jumping terminals of relay.
Attempted plastic weld on cracked edge of upper body, took a few tries but I believe it's now holding.
Got oil filter for Briggs vangaurd, will change and continue to work on getting the machine to a baseline.
Still wanting to increase axle support for running tracks. Ordered one cheap flange bearing (UCFL207-20) off ebay to plan frame mounting. Concerned about size of flange and mounting to frame. Wondering if something a little smaller (UCFL206-20) would make for an easier fit. Open to input from anyone who's done this before. (Adding inner bearings to older Max II).
Looking into a rust prevention coating for frame.
Need to go over wiring, concerned about functionality of charging system, starter relay not working with key turn.
Made some progress today, separated upper body from the tub, it's currently up on sawhorse. Think the next step is going to be getting the tub on blocks so i can pull the axles. Notice there's a lot of grit and debris on floor of tub, going to spend some time cleaning up.
Thanks liflod, I'm having a good time getting into it. Making sure to document the dissasembly so it all goes back together smoothly. I figure when the works all done it should be better suited for moving around the snow this winter.
If you're pulling the frame, put everything together once before you put the frame inside the body. It's much easier to get things lined up and figured out with the body out of the way.
