PS. Here are a few pics of what we did today 4/13/08,,did some adjusting, mounted the windshield,,( with the broken glass),and started a Roll bar setup, I am trying 1-1/4 electrical conduit,,it's light and strong,,think we will try a semi hard top of some type,,,going with another set of up-rights mounted on the 1-1/2 angle iron,,,down the outside about middle of rear seats,,then 3 cross struts to the front bar, and maybe a couple grab rails welded up in the corners or something, to help climb in.

Here is our finished Roll Bar, made out of 1-1/4 EMT conduit and 1-1/2 angle iron base, we took it off the BigFoot, to clean it and I then Sprayed it with Dupli-Color Bed coating,,I also weighed the Roll Bar,,,50 lbs on the money ! lol,,after it dried we bolted it to the BigFoot,,,the Bed coating is already scarred and marked up,,,took it in our little pine grove,,,HHmmmm kinda tight quarters in there,,,lol

I'm addicted!

Nice rides everyone. This is my first and I have a feeling it wont be my last! I am really getting addicted quickly to tinkering and playing with this beast! And it looks like I am in good company! Lots of helpful people in this community. Hopefully I will be able to give back as much as I get from it!

Cory,,,Have you had your ARGO in the water yet Swimming?

Just noticed in your pics,,,when I got my BigFoot,,I found out that with the tire's on in the direction yours are on,,,It did not swim at all,,,you probobly need to switch them from side to side to reverse them,,,, to motivate in the water Good.,,,maybe a 8x8 is different ?,,,,,Mark

[salamander]

tire direction

He's right Cory; you have your tires on backwards. As far as having them generate thrust in the water, direction of tread is key. As it stands, so long as you stay out of the water, or drive backwards when you do go swimming, then it doesnt matter!

Salamander,,thats a Sweet looking BigFoot,,,Really like the Camo!,,,,Mark
