Here are some pictures of now available aluminum cabs for the Mudd-Ox. They are available in diamond plate, smooth, or powder coated to match the machines. Options will include sliding rear and side windows , windshield wipers. They all have escape hatches out the roof for safety reasons and weight about 160 lbs with the glass windows.

The Mudd-Ox with aluminum cab looks good.

It's more than nice to be in shirt sleeves at 30 below when you have a heater to go along with that cab!

Letter from Scott,...
Scott, Not really. It is one tough rig. I did find a bit of a glitch in the chain tensioners. I think Matt has addressed that already.
My tensioners would slip back down, but I put some star washers on the tightener bolts and stopped that.
I'm in the process of doing a bit of welding on the brackets, so I can adjust them by tightening a bolt.
If you are interested in my design let me know.
I have used my ox to do about everything. I have a heater, windshield wipers,boom arm on back ( killer design) that I made.
I'm also going to cut and re-do the windshield so it will lay down. I'm pulling the top cap off and putting on one made out of nagahide(camo). I want a convertible for moose hunting. It should be easy with the frame they built.
I have also re-done the fans for running in this sub-zero cold. My heater is all that usually runs. I have one on a toggle switch and the main one on a temperature switch that runs off the engine coolant. It works great!! I'm doing a video on these up-grades this spring and I'll send them to anyone who is interested in what I have done.
Next summer I'm building an aluminum trailer with big skii's. I will do broken snow machine retreavals for anyone broken down in the mountains.
Anyhoo, I'm putting together a repair kit for chain repair in the field. It will consist of several spare links and a dremmel tool to grind off a broken link etc. Without a special pair of channel locks to pull the chain together and a dremmel grinder, you will have a hard time repairing broken chains.
I will post all of this stuff when I get a chance. As far as the dependability of the Mudd Ox, I travel out into frozen country in the winter, and out into bogs that can't be walked in the summer. I feel very confident in my machine.
I know that I can repair most anything that might fail. Failure could get me killed.
I have some other secrets such as a spare jumper with allegator clips. It will jump my glow plugs or any of the fans etc, should a relay fail. I carry spare little relays also.
Glad you liked the book.
Bubba

You sound like a very handy guy. You really need to be handy in the harsh out back that you ride in.
