Mudd-Ox Unveiled !!

[APRock]

Couple of questions......

Seeing that you tried out 16 wheels on that machine - have you tried the 16 wheels and 2 sets of tracks?? Might give a lot more floatation on deep fluffy snow, not to mention mud bogs, reed flats and the like.

Also, wondering if there'd be any "safe" way to add spikes to the tracks similar to what snowmobile tracks have for running on glare ice.

My primary interest in one of these machines is icefishing. This year we have lots of snow, big lakes have deep drifts you have to meander around or get stuck (Jeep and pickup). Other years not so much snow and super flat, glaze ice. Tracks with spikes and/or star lugs would solve both problems.

I am certain I'd find plenty of uses for it in the "off" season as well....

Awesome machine Matt

Hey Matt, been reading about your Mudd-Ox in this forum and visiting your website and I am super impressed by your AATV, it seems like it is exactly what an eight wheeler should be, kind of what God would have created if he were in that business. Can you tell me if you have any dealers in southeast Michigan, I would love to try one out. Thanks again for all your hard work and ingenuity in producing such a great machine, I look forward to doing business with you in the future.

Cold

Hey everyone,
I just came in from a ride and it was 14 degrees, I had a tee shirt on ( I am fat to) and was having a blast. Mudd OX are GREAT I climbed a hill that I was scared to try with my 2007 sportsman 800. No spin just just nice and slow did not even spill my diet (remember the fat) Coke.
Well now for a night ride

As for the speed increase I think you may (not sure if it will be an option or something you will have to do yourself later)be able to regear the machine which will require a new gear and different chain to it. Matt actually lowered the gearing so it could run anything on it tires , tracks or duallys and not get bogged down.

Air cooled Kohler 40 HP in the Mudd ox

Akexpress and Hancock. Thanks, I wrongly assumed that the Mudd ox Kohler was liquid cooled. I saw the pic of the insulated engine bay and the big fan and assumed wrong. It looks like a fabulous machine in every way

[beungood]

For those of us out here who are not satified unless we modify our rigs, what drives the speed of the machine the motor or the Hydraulic Motors? If we wanted more speed are higher output motors required or is a new pump and motors required. I like this design as I was hydraulicsman in the military.

thanks

Hey , I did not know that about the air ducts to the front cab, I was trying to come up with a way to heat the cab. Sounds great

Yes it is aircooled. This is how the Mudd-Ox can heat the cabs without any additional add ons. One of the early prototypes got your butt pretty warm until they fiqured out how to block the air and insulate that area. this engine has some nice features like a easy oil fliter change system. You can go on Kohler site and read about it. The Mudd-Ox has a large hydraulic cooler and a guage to monitor hydraulic temps in the dash panels. Matt has really paid attention to the details with this machine and he should be proud of his accomplishment. He is also continuing to improve and update as systems and parts improve,there have already been changes since production started.

40 hp air cooled Kohler engine

40 hp Kohler

[QUOTE=akexpress;27948]As the 40 hp kohler is air cooled ....Sure?

[akexpress]

As the 40 hp kohler is air cooled there is a channel on the left side of the tub that can be opened for heat. With the full or half cab and the duct open you should be able to hunt in your shirtsleeves in all the but the coldest conditions. You are also able to completely close it off for summer use. and the windshield is removable with just two clips so you can enjoy open machines when the sun is out.

[beungood]

Does it stay warm inside with the top on? I am thinking this would be a great way to hunt in cold weather in real hard to reach areas or long walks into back country in bad weather allowing you to stay out hunting longer and drive back in comfort..

Tracks

I wonder how much stress would be put on the Mudd ox with tracks, I know trachs stress almost every machine . Even on the bobcats it is hard on the power train. The mudd ox will go anywhere with tracks on, I don;t think they make a 6x6 , 4x4, or 8x8 that would out do it.
