I got a good deal on a 96? max IV this fall. Installed new chains and bearing all around and had fun drinking beer and driving over trees and through streams with a full load of entertained siblings and in-laws.
The kohler M20 that was in it runs good and seems to be in good condition, but it needed some carb attention and i got a good deal on a yazoo mower with a kubota d722.
The kohler is out of the max, kubota out of the mower and stub-shaft milled to accept the stock 780 clutch. I plan on fabbing a motor mount this afternoon and hopefully it will run by the end of the week.
As far as I can tell the kubota is set for 3200 rpm in the yazoo, so that will be bumped to 3800 or so and timing advanced 3* (pulling 2 shims from pump)
if all goes well and it performs OK the plan is to move transmission under rear seat and drop the engine down to get it lower in the chassis.
if performance is lacking a td015 or td02 turbo and a crank to the rack limit screw will be in order.
Don't have many pics at the moment, ill update as I progress.
