You have a great machine there, and it sounds like you're whipping it into shape. I'm sure you'll have loads of fun with it.
I have my brakes setup so that the handles pull away from the dash about 3/4" to 1" before they start to engage ( I've never measured, that's just a guestimate). Need to leave a bit of room for heat expansion of the fluid.

Thanks for the tip RD , I've watched all your vids and its helped me heaps. It look's like yours get a fair workout. I don't have the mud over here in Australia being a pretty dry country, but I live on a river and have cattle so it is invaluable for checking the fences.stay tuned for some vids when I get a go pro!

Hi Hubcap - I'm from AUS as well.

You got that argo for a steal!!! mine was in pieces and I paid $1800 for it. I had to drive from Sydney to Lismore to get it as well

make sure when you fix your clutch you replace the bushing, circlip, and the Shoes. looks like you now need a new spring as well.

The bushing is easy to replace, just make sure you remove the retaining pin with a punch before you start.

You can fit the new bush by hand if you put it in the freezer for a little while first... a bit of oil and you can just push it in by hand..

anyways - good luck!

Hey mate, yeah I've sorted it out. Watched RD's YouTube. Winded it up a bit so turns real nice. I'm building a spray tank for it swell but I'm in USA at moment so bit busy. Have you sorted your transmission out yet?
