  • Hello,Mike
    I go by Radarr53 and I 'm a rookie at 6x6 offroading. I'm from Ontario, Canada and I've got a bit of an issue with the Bigfoot I have. It's a 2003 and apparently not all the wheels have power. The front tires don't have any power. I've been trying to research the problem, but not getting too far in solving the problem. The other 4 wheels work well. Any suggestions?
    TIA

    • Hi Radarr53, Welcome to the sight. I'm from Ontario too but it's a big province. I'm from Prince Edward County in south east Ont. If you have no power to your front wheels the first question is are the front chains on? The sprockets on your 03 Bigfoot should be splined to the axle but I suppose that a a missing circlip might allow the sprocket to slide off of the spline? If you can figure out how to post a picture on this site ,there are many really knowledgeable guys that can zero in on a solution to your problem. Good luck with getting her running in top shape.

      • I'm with philipatmaxfour on the missing chains though there could be other drive issues.

        Post a picture of the front driveline along with your question in the Argo forum.

        • Hi everyone, I joined to educate myself on this 6 wheeled thing I saw on the roadside one day. So far I have learned it is an ATTEX, prolly '70s, with single cyl pull start JLO engine. Purrs like a kitten. Hope to learn much more, lots of woods in North Georgia.

              • Hello. New to this site. I have an Argo Frontier 8x8 Frontier. Looking to add some mud flaps and a light bar if anyone has suggestions. Would also like to make a rack for it in the future.

                • Hey all, Mitchell aka CornSquatch here. I just bought my first 6x6 bc they are awesome. It's an unknown year seirra trailboss. Doesn't have the original motor and am very hopeful that you guys have the knowledge to mess with it more. I bought it for 800 and it runs but has a hard time driving due to binding. It's mostly complete thought

                    • Welcome to Abc123, Benjie, CornSquatch, and Bidda...we are glad to have you all on board.

                      Abc123: post if you are an AATV owner, and if so what make/model/year that you have. Also update your profile for your location.
                      Benjie: Browse the Argo forum and search on keywords that you are interested in...someone may have already done what you are planning.
                      CornSquatch: sounds like you have a great project machine. enjoy and have fun
                      Bidda: Good video of your track installation. Again, browse the Argo forum and search on "tensioner" as someone else may have already addressed your issue.

                      • Hello and thanks for the welcome.

                        Thanks for adding me to the group. I plan on garnering as much information Argo as possible, so I'll be reading the threads and asking questions along the way. I have owned my Argo HDi 750 8x8 for about 3 years now. I have taken it on the beaches, in the mountains and swam it on a couple lakes and ponds. The swimming part you can keep, it's nice to have when you need too, but I plan on avoiding it as much as possible. It had a HIGH PUCKER factor and it takes a long time to take a dump after that. I love the Argo, my family loves the Argo and everyone wants to borrow it but they can't. I haven't used it in deep snow, it has been in a foot of snow without tracks and seems to do great. I've high center once and got a Fluke anchor to use as a drag to hook the winch to and it pulls me right out. I am considering getting tracks but have questions I'll be posting to ask your folks opinion and suggestion.

                        Again Thanks for adding me to the group I look forward to sharing and learning.

                            • Hello I am a new member here at 6x6 world. This membership is long overdue, but I finally signed up. I don't have a 6 wheeler yet but I am very much interested in the Argo Bigfoot. Seems like prices have been going up in prices like crazy, I used to find them forsale way back for $1,500 to $2,500. Now I can't find any reasonable deals. I'm not at the point of buying one yet but I would definitely like to make a future purchase and find out as much as I can about these amazing Atvs. I'm actually from Connecticut these are a bit rare where I am I've only actually seen one in person. I never had the chance or opportunity to go out in one yet. Just wanted to introduce myself to this forum!
