[cjmaxx]

It would be best to find a replacement like the one jpswift linked to under your picture. The other option would be to have one made. You could find the same sprockets and weld them on the tube, or have them welded on a new tube.

Those sprockets are the same as the scramblers. Just thought I would add that to help your search. That is not fixable without being creative with a welder. It could be done though, same method as Mike stated, cutting the 2 smaller sprockets off and welding 2 new ones on. I have seen a set for a scrambler on ebay but it was pretty pricey. But...If you need it you need it and sometimes price doesnt matter.

Good luck with your gotcha and post up some pictures of it.

You could add an HDPE skid plate. Search the site and there are a few threads on doing this. One by hydromike that is pretty detailed.

didnt even think of that...cool..i actually have a 4 foot by 10 foot sheet of 60 mil hdpe liner...i could probably cut it and double it up and have 120 mil of protection and still be light....nice...thanks mike...have to see how hydromike did his.....
