wait maybe that was the wife.....no....nope it was definately the MAX lol

BAHAHAHAHA! replace max with either "attex" or "Woodburner" and you have my mornings nailed! lol

[LarryW]

No T-20? Thats to bad!

Could you get a picture of the transmission that it came with?

[msafi65]

#6648 was probably built in 1979 or 1980 by my records. RI can give you the build date and what dealer sold it. Once you get to drive it you will be hooked! Have fun

thanks, AL

So some other transmission was mounted in there?

I would suggest to not even try running it with those chains. Unless they are better then it looks. When a chain breaks it can wrap around the axle sprocket and then it binds up on the body. Sometimes it can even crack the body right there under the axle sprockets. Looks like a project but when you get it done it will be a blast.

Its a project. I would suggest a full rebuild. Go all in on this one, but wait till you find a t-20 for it. Without that its not going to be worth much for off roading. You may wat to look for a doner vehicle to steal the tranny from, you know busted up tub with a siezed engine type macine. There are some good folks on here that may be able to sell you a used t-20, but I would avoid acomplete unit from those other websites. Once your tranny is sorted the rest is easy. The engine is an easy upgrade to a briggs if you want, tires hold air and you can always add slime, sand and paint the frame, change the bearings, new chain and your in business. Sounds so easy just insert a few choice words and bloody appendages randomly during the process for a more realistic view.

this is the tranny the guy thought went with it...he is a scrapper i know and called me because he knows i like "weird" stuff ...so he really doesn't know anything about them

PS...he's keeping an eye out for a late 20's early 30's car or truck for me too....can we all say together ..."RAT ROD".......lol

[Snowboss]

lmao drew....so well put my friend.....ive come up building various bikes, boats and trucks.....gotta pretty mean ol 12 valve cummins in my tonner right now, great work horse with attitude.....i thought i was the only one with calouses on my knuckles but im learning pretty quick that you guys like to get as scarred up and dirty under the body top as you do in the trails.....im lovin this place...........

remember "real trucks don't have spark plugs".......hmmmmmmm i wonder if i could squeeze a 2-3 cylinder diesel in this MAX...think think think think.......

6x6World member Don did it in his Hustler and after driving it, I must say it was a monster! It can certainly be done.

ill be buying the 10hp single diesel when i go to do my rebuild project on my "struck" mini dozer.. I work on CAT's all day....a dozer just aint a dozer without a diesel motor..

"real trucks don't have spark plugs"

Depends what ya consider spark plugs..lol We call injectors the spark plugs on all our equipment...cuz when one drops out...it acts just like a dead plug. lol

[Snowboss]

lol...ok, ok....well played sir.......but theres no distibuter - wires or traditional plugs in my rig....hahaha
