    Thanks! It has totally been worth it. I think that if you can find a machine 6 or 8 wheeled Argo max or what ever. With a 5 hole bolt pattern on tune wheels and 1 1/2 axles, you should be able to do this too.... And pick and choose as time and money allow for modifications.

    Out cited a pair of kc daylighters with ddm tuning hid ballasts and bulbs. Looks like the sun. Two 18 watt LEDs front and rear finish out the lighting. Probbably need 2 off to the sides so I can really see.... Alaska in winter is no joke!



    MOOSE HUNTING DATE!!!!!



    Stuck Argo.... Too light to sink,,,, too heavy to float..... Maybe tracks will help?



    Only complaint is the manual breaks make it SUPER HARD to steer some times....

    Nice to see another bronco lover! The clutches are out of a Polaris snow mobile (snow machine snow go) the one on the engine is off off an 80 something triple (NOT THE XLT) and the driven is on the trans, it is off of a nineties Polaris RMK. Luckily Polaris has kept the P-85 clutch desiighn up to 2005. Most any drive and driven clutches you can get for the snow machines are highly innerchangeable.... I would say 1985 to 2005 400 cc to 900 cc and you have it made. The only weird part I have is the Polaris spring on the driven is out of a four stroke four wheeler. However, all parts I used are realitivly easy to find and cheap to buy. If your supper savey about it, I se no reason you could not have these clutches set up and tuned for under 300 bucks

    Thanks joe! Cheaper is better.

    Here is my version of a slammed together winch mount for the Tera 35.... Dirt cheap on amazon.



    Answer to question " what should I build now? "









    It should do good job of protecting the winch. It should also, I hop, help to slide through the brush. The paint is drying now and I'll get more photos tomorrow.

    Two more progress pics and an update.

    Running 10-68 weights (primary) 34/55 degree helix with a new red spring (secondary). Full shift out at about 5000 rpm... Seems to be working berry well.
