01 conquest stuck in limbo

[Geologic]

I can't seem to get the momentum to put it back together. Great southern rust free 220hour unit all broken down, new parts on hand but lost my will. The hard part was the tear down. I need to let my project go if any MS Argo fans nearby will give me what I have in new parts cost. Any good MS assembly for hire options???

YOU CAN DO IT!! try to budget a little time each night to work on the project. Once you see it start coming together, you will gain momentum!

I've invested a lot of time and resources, this is our third Argo, I decided to rebuild rather than to trade and invested in new bearings, seals, front and idler chain, new rotors, new throttle cable, new tires and wheels Argo, new carb, new brake shoes,new idler shaft sprockets, front facing rear seat, new belt new brake cooling housing, spent hours cleaning the shafts a sprockets I'm reusing. My problem is that I don't have a garage to work in.

I know exactly how you feel on that.. I did my Hustler rebuild in my carport when it was warm enough to work.

Carport with bad weather is what I have now. Anyone got any good MS Argo builders in mind?

I hear ya on working outside! I"m working on my 04 bigfoot in my driveway in temps as cold as -20c! Not fun!

Best strategy is just to do a bit each night... I think you'll regret it if you sell it at this point with all the time you've invested and all the parts on hand!

Best of luck!

There is an Argo dealer near me in West point MS, Adventure ATv is the stores name, that could do the work. Problem is I have a feeling that it wont be cheap. Its about 2 hours from Jackson.

i've got a 94 conquest and do not have a place to work on it , kinda frustating as i would love to do the work myself

I can definitely feel your pain. I built a Max IV outside under a pop-up awning---not fun. My 950 hustler was built in one end of a 12' wide mobile home I converted into a shop. Then I did a bunch of work on Mudbugs Max IV, and wound up with a Hustler Bigfoot for the job. I was so burnt out on working in the cramped confines of the mobile home that I sold both the Bigfoot and 950 to top off my shop fund and build a 24X32 insulated shop. Although I LOVE the new shop there is some regret that I had to sell a sweet 950 and a Bigfoot with enormous potential to get it. I can also identify with being bogged down on a build, so before you sell your machine try this: Set it aside for a while and catch your breath. I was extremely disgusted to learn how much it would cost me to get the tub sprayed with bed liner for my current project. WAY too much cash and time into it to ever break even so selling it was out of the picture, and I wouldn't have done that anyhow, (it's kind of a grudge thing, like " I am GONNA drive you into a mud hole one day...) so what do you do... Leave it alone for a while and do something else. You'll get back into it later when you feel like messing with it, and having a dealer finish it for you will certainly be VERY costly.

Thanks for the tips guys. I'm still in limbo until I get more organized. Just sent garage plans off for approval. Now I've got to clean out the storage. Not good for the Argo.
